I’ve heard the term a lot, and although I’ve basically figured out what it means, I was wondering what everyone else’s “grail” is? Mine was the noctu, but then I found one 😁 ---

If it means “ultimate dream yoyo,” then I don’t think I have one either. On the other hand, if it means “that one yoyo you are on a quest to obtain,” then for me that would be a 2016 OD Benchmark W in nickel finish. Not because it is the “holy grail” of yoyo performance (or fun), but because it completes the set (of which I have the other three) and it is proving _very_ hard to find out in the wild. ---

As far as looks go, hell yes, but DAMN THE METRIC BEARINGS. finding a concave was was nigh on impossible, and they make the throw vibey like A and D size bearings do. I swore then and there I would only buy C size bearing yoyos from then on. ---

Mine is arguably kinda lame. For YEARS I’ve been hunting for a black YYR Mr. Butcher, to no avail. I found ONE for sale since my search began sometime back in 2013 (I think), but I didn’t have the funds at the time. I’ve owned a clear one, but stupidly traded it away. Anyways, if anyone has heard any rumors of rumblings of where I could snag one, please PM me 😛 ---

Well first it was a B.S.P… And then it was a Sovereign. After that the machinist talked me into a Magnum. Which lead to a Five Star. Then it was a Mg. A whole lot of Mgs. After you’ve had the Mg you want something handmade by Skon himself. Then there was that time Deth gave me a Silver Bullet for Christmas. I’ve got one mint Bape left. I’ve owned every variant of the Ywet just kept the Danny Severance version. Almost forgot, yes to cold fusion. Heck that means my grail is a Cold Fusion G.T.! I’m glad we had this chance to dialog. ---

I just have enough yoyos that are round and spin. I see another yoyo I like, find myself wanting it and then realise it’s another thing that spins just like all my other things that spin. If I did get my ‘grail’ I’d probably regret how much I paid for it, and then start wishing for the next amazing new thing that spins. ---

i mean, you’re missing the point of the thread AND the fact that there are some qualities that you _ **need** _ to do certain things with “things that spin”, but i get where you’re coming from. spending thousands on yoyos is just not something some people are interested in.
