I predict overwhelming votes for clear!

Why choose? One of each!

I like both :man_shrugging:

I guess if I did a run, I could make both. They’re slightly different. The POM is about 9g heavier (51g) and feels gummier. The surface doesn’t look as pristine either. Not saying the POM is worse at all, just different.

Perfect reason to buy one of each

I don’t care for clear. Harder to see.

What would be the price difference between the two? I would prefer the clear but if the pom is in that sweet spot of $50 I would go pom all day.

The clear looks like it could sneak up on you and be a one way ticket to a black eye.

It’s really not in the $50 sweet spot. More like $80.

It’s a really ā€˜last forever’ kind of yoyo. It would take some very serious abuse to break it, although, I haven’t tested out out yet. It’s super solid.

That dyed POM is fantastic!

I prefer the clear, but, the important part is I’m trying to come up with some clever way to incorporate ā€œpaddywackā€ whenever I see ā€œKnick-KNackā€ - maybe a counterweight?

ā€œWhat YoYo/counterweight are you using for fixed axle 5A?ā€

ā€œMy Knick-KNack Paddywack, of courseā€

You could walk the dog, and let go of the counterweight: ā€œKnick-KNack, Paddywack, give the dog a bone!ā€

I voted clear, but they both look amazing!

I think I’m going to stick with the clear polycarbonate. I think all round it’s just a bit better.

Plus I think you could use the clear one to start fires in an emergency situation like a magnifying glass.

I bet there will be fire when Kyle gets a hold of it!
