Yeah I think “shocking” would be how I’d describe first feeling it. And that’s after having a lot of the other really smooth yoyos people have mentioned. Seems silly to talk about it like that but it really was something else

If you put 10 people in a room and asked them to define smooth you would get at least 4 definitions. Your right definition is not necessarily everyone reading this post.

Also, to clarify, smoothness is a nice touch on a premium throw. But, I think it is almost irrelevant to actual throwing, except if the vibe can be felt on the string.

I have to agree that G2 is Glass smooth standard, especially My Banshe SS. BANSHE SS If i have to pick the absolute smoothest 0 vibe ever, but dont bind a full power throw right away!

I also want to mention that General yo keeps coming up with (or revisiting) in my opinion equally smooth throws, the Royal 1 is so smooth i forget im holding a yoyo (except for that very comfortable solid weight).

Covenant. I take pride in only letting the dead smooth stuff out the door. But for some reason when I don’t think a yo-yo could be any smoother the covenant just is. On the fingernail and string there are some I don’t even know if they are spinning or not.

I’ve thrown glass smooth yoyos from the majority of manufacturers we carry. And i’m talking about “if I closed my eyes and touched it I wouldn’t know it was spinning” level of smooth. It’s not always consistent with one model, style, or even batch number, but you know it when you feel it.

Shaqshine FG and the G2 Banshee SS have been the only two that I can think of that were completely 100% vibe free, at least that you could feel.

Most/all of the yoyos I own are smooth enough for me. That being said the original general yo Torrent is probably the “smoothest” I’ve ever owned or thrown. That yo-yo set the bar pretty high for “smooth”.

Most Yoyos are smooth these days but there was a certain smooth magic to throwing the OG Spider Man at worlds 2011 before KingYoStar was even a thing that was pure magic.

Flying V was the first thing that came to my mind but I didn’t post because I couldn’t really explain why it seems smoother than a hundred other smooth yo-yos… but it does!

My red and black halfswap sprung to mind but I hadn’t thought about the polished rims.

To be fair, all the spyys I’ve played have been extremely smooth, the kind of smoothness you compare any other throw to.
