What did you throw 2023?

Finally picked up a Spotlight Ultra, cause everytime I go to DXL I just keep playing Justin Dauer’s lmao

Came scratched but whatever… babying a Spotlight Ultra isn’t in my plans haha

Probably my favorite monometal rn. Featuring HappyLemon’s insanely delicious Bubble Waffle w/ cream cheese.

TBH I am still trying to get used to the combined low weight and relatively large rings. I really like the size/shape.

After a month or so the bearing has worked itself out and now I’ll be throwing this all the time :raised_hands:

I bought the $5 six pack yos at Target. I plan on painting them and handing them out at raves or to some hyphie kid. I tried to capture the glitter nail polish I used.

They’re a transaxle and they light up, I half swapped this one and can say, These are decent imperials at .89 cents! I planned on them being just playable enough to justify giving them away for free but I was surprised at how good they play!

Thanks for your reply. Interesting to hear that. I always wanted a Droid because imho it is one of the most stunning looking throws I have ever seen. But after a review by StasisLabs (https://youtu.be/YCdq_Ju9bKA?si=GipW_oG0vHi22HE7) I am a bit concerned that it is maby not as good as I wanted it to be in terms of performance.

Much better to be surprised than disappointed.

How do you like it? Looks like the opposite of their performance based throws.

My hot-rodded beater Lyn Fury. Bought it for next to nothing years ago on a listing that didn’t identify the make or model. It arrived with a bearing that was rusted frozen. Maybe the previous owner took it scuba diving; I don’t know. Satined + RTVd + ceramic bearing. Pure joy.

I haven’t had too much time with it yet, but it’s a blast to play. It’s something I’d pick up to relax, have fun and try some new trick/element ideas with. I’m liking the shiny finish. Only my 2nd shiny finish next to my Motion Harmonic. It’s just a real comfortable chill experience. I’ve always loved Hydrangea’s color choices and the pink is beautiful. Ever since I was able to get a Magnolia, I’ve been smitten with them so I’m a little biased.

Surveil of mowl
The engravings on the inside are Ukrainian buildings.
I bought this yo-yo during a campaign to donate a part of the money for every yo-yo sold to Ukraine.
I sincerely hope that this war will be over as soon as possible and people will be able to live happily.

Equanimity with a 28 wrap silk string. I am forming a love/hate relationship with this thinner material. Its sooo fine and takes forever to make 28 wraps but now that I’m getting a better feel for the correct amount of twisting to make a good string, they’re coming out really good. Right about at 15%. 10’ 7” twisted down to 9’. I got more guttermann anyway though, joanns had a sale! Maybe I can find a good blend.

DaVinci absolutely rips. I keep going back and forth with my new Klondike. I think I favor the DaVinci by a slight margin. It does not feel like a 62g yoyo.

But then again, I played EVO ALL NIGHT LONG.

I cant explain glacial motion or why Los Angeles doesnt drop into the ocean… I cant explain why it took me so long to pick up a FH1.

I am now aware that all the recommendations for this throw isnt hype. It really is good.

I have now drank the Kool-aid and am a convert.

Have fun.
