That’s way more progress than I’ve made. I need a yo-yo friend to help me push my boundaries. But still, how awesome is that?
Haven’t put down the Diorama since I got it. Looking for similar feeling high-wall throws if others know of some
Been throwing these for fun
From left to right: Hyper Russel - My very first yoyo I ever got at Ala Moana shopping center in Hawaii in 1998. It is broken inside but still can be used! The yoyo that started it all for me.
Next was a random ebay find I acquired back in 2019 so I could have a non broken version to use.
Last two are new ones I got on eBay just last week!
TRT Isthmus
The Static Co. Wave is a really really nice and capable high wall slimline throw. Highly recommend it. And there are still some available at a retailer in the States.
Beach Party is the best CLYW color
I’ve been tossing a few MoonRocks. The finish on these DocPop creations is amazing. They feel soft and silky.
Got home tonight and finished cleaning up my budget find. The bearing was pretty wasted and the pads were shot. I replaced the pads with some Duncan SG pads that sit a little proud and then put in a slim 4mm D bearing. I got some budget A bearings from the rain forest site, cleaned the lube out of them and threw on some hubstacks. Put on a fresh string and gave it a throw. It plays pretty responsive with a light tug but still sleeps well. Did some pull starts and it spins as good as my confusion. All in all I’m happy with it. Doesn’t look to bad either but I may swap the white caps for black down the road.

@BadWolfeCo Goldilocks Tangerine string
this combo remains as one of my favorites of all time. love the throw. long spins, stability, finger spin cups, grinds, perfect width…it’s got it all.

After collecting it’s fair share of flats spots from smooth concrete and tile floors, my Isthmus finally kissed the asphault! Still dead smooth though
