Really playing catch up today. The Draft kept me up wayyyyy too late. Been slinging this Unicorn Storm brass Herdsman since then. The Herdsman was the second yo-yo in the agent series, where a member of the team has influence of the design for one of our monthly patreon shipments. This has been an absolute gem of a yo-yo. The brass version is my personal favorite and this colorway has it on my Mount Rushmore right now.
Just moved to Reno and these are the only two throws that aren’t boxed up (still).

Nice!
Zeekio Slim Jim. Until now I never understood when people said they got a yoyo that made them not want to pick up any other yoyo. Got this Wednesday and am hooked. The only slimline I’ve liked and was able to do tricks with. Have it set up unresponsive. EDIT: I meant REALLY slim, not like Panorama slim which is beefy compared to the Slim Jim.

This thing is… something. It’s somehow simultaneously one of the best and one of the worst throws I own. It is legitimately one of the most uncomfortable yo-yos to hold and catch that I’ve ever touched. But it’s also one of the smoothest and most stable yo-yos I’ve played, and I just can’t put it down.
Threw these today , been awhile since I’ve thrown the basilisk D very nice to revisit it. Great company btw, the Alebrije is super fun, currently rocking the unrespensive set up.
Throwing my only G2 and most babied yoyo, the brass ring Valhalla, today. This thing’s just a work of art. Plays like a dream. This one’s another that I would love to pick up a more generic finish of to have as a beater. I keep the Valhalla at home
Since I posted some more information in the BST about the YoYoPalace Mimic that I’m looking for, I took a picture of my purple one that I’ve been throwing for the last couple of days:
I really like this yoyo, and now I wish I had another one. I remember having an internal debate with myself ages ago about whether to get the green or brown, but I didn’t like those colorways quite as well as the purple one that I already had. But now a lot of time has passed, and they’re not available through the traditional retail channels. Of course, I’d love to have another in any colorway now, so I’m kicking myself for not getting the green or brown one months ago when they were still readily available.
I’m beginning to wonder if one of the reasons that I like it so much is that it’s an inner ring bimetal. I say that because the YoYoFriends Vulture is one of my all-time favorites, and it’s got an inner ring too. But one of the neat things about the Mimic is that the internal ring extends past the aluminum so that it’s always visible regardless of what angle you’re viewing it. So you can still see the stainless steel rings, even in a straight-on portrait orientation.
Is this a wizard?
Yes indeed!
I mean… the wear on the teal yo-yo looks like it’s meant to be that way.
