Yo we all like 5A right? So what is your personal go to CW? There’s no right answer and it’s all preference but what do you reach for most often. Also what’s a unique or special CW you have? ---

I really like the Duncan Rapid Ball. The most unique I have is Rain City’s Objet D’Art counterweight because you can change the weight. ---

I have a chainmail counterweight (by dustin gunter) that I love because it doesn’t hurt at all. So pleasant. ---

Mine is not really a counterweight per se. It’s a red yoyofactory top button ball. But it also works really well as a counterweight. Iykyk ---

My favourites are the Leather Jackets. Quiet, comfy, nice grip. The Mulga Cube on the right feels and plays great but is much louder than anything else (made from my percussion timber stockpile) and can easily dent aluminium. ![IMG_20240223_175819745~2](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/1/e/d/1edd862c36a19f315e21cb96f2491c530aef95fa.jpeg) Most unique is my squashed self portrait ![IMG_20240302_111555449~2](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/d/e/5/de58747e99de3ae9e25debeb45f560ecae98d00d.jpeg) The Leather Jackets and the textured burgers in the second pic (I’ll probably call them Slamburgers) I’m pretty sure are unique things only I make. If someone else has done these first I’d love to see. ---
