Oof. Hopefully not the Lemon (but I fear it may have been).
Not at all!!!
mine was the over saturation of dimple cupped yoyo designs on the market, too many dnas rn
Fingerspined a bit too hard there bud hehe
This is why I prefer dimples to spikes, as a newbie to finger spins
I refuse to finger spin I prefer grinds

This comes to mind
Hahahaha! It certainly felt like that!
I feel you. Every time my hands look like this after climbing, I know that there’s no way I’ll be touching a yo-yo that day… or even next day ![]()
Those doggies look raw!
Nah, feels more like “cooked” ![]()
When I can’t realign engravings after unscrewing a yo-yo ![]()
Biggest pet peeve is access to yoyo communities and stores where I am. I live in Canada, and in my specific province yoyo’s are essentially a foreign language. I have been yoyoing since 2010 (with a few year break in between) and have only made it to one contest (MWR in Minneapolis) as it was only 8 hours away. besides that, never met another yoyoer in 15 years of throwing! crazy!
so real
Amen ![]()
Busting knuckles and bruising fingertips with accidental binds. The stainless is especially biting.![]()
yeah, meeting other yoyoers in person takes legitimate effort. its incredibly rare to stumble into other throwers almost everywhere.
Collectible throws resale value. And retail price for that matter. I fully understand why the price is justified, but it doesn’t change the fact that it’s $200+ for a toy. An absolutely awesome toy made with ultra-premium materials, but a toy nonetheless.
This doesn’t extend to ebay prices for some pieces, those are unjustifiable ![]()

On the subject of collectible yoyos, another peeve I have is where someone will buy 15 units of the same yoyo, just in different colors, and not play with any of them. Collecting different colorways I can understand, but having every single one be a shelf queen makes me scratch my head. The justification: “resale value”
. But hey, it’s your money; it’s yours to burn as a sacrifice for the yoyo idols, lol.
Me, any yoyo I purchase, I intend to play with. I couldn’t care less about what it’ll sell for in ten years. I just wanna use it the way it was intended to be used, as a skill toy
YoYo is the people’s toy!!! ![]()
