Just wanted to let you guys know what she got me… I wanted the Mr. Butcher but it was all sold out. So my next option was to figure out a new throw. Feeling a bit frantic I chose to look as some of my throws and tried to remember what I wanted back before I started my whole 28 stories collection idea. Here’s what I decided on: Benchmark O, V, H Brass Ultra lights (only brass SE I wanted that were in stock) and a black CLYW 5-panel All in all a pretty good birthday present… ;D ---

Quality over quantity is the way to go, for me anyways 🙂 ---

Well what I meant was Id rather get the best throw I can get in my budget instead of getting multiple decent yoyos. I know, benchmarks are very good yoyos, but with a $200 budget, there’s better throws out there ---

Good buy! I love my benchmarks. Enough that when someone traded me a Dif-E-Yo Juggernaut for my Benchmark-H, I replaced it. =) It’s fun to be able to let people experience the differences in play the shapes bring. ---
