Ok, I’m thinking of picking up an X-con and I would love to know some pros and cons about it. I like the look of it and the size is right there for me, I’m just looking for another’s opinion on it. ---

It’s a great yoyo. If it fits your preferences, it’ll be a good choice. ---

well, the x-con is a good yoyo, but i have to reccomand a new breed, but the x-con is nice for grinds, it’s small, and sleeps pretty good, not as long as a dm but still pretty good. ---

Thanks guys, but I decided to be a good Dad and get both of my kids new throws instead. I will keep this in mind for next time I order though. ---

it just seems that it does, and by that i mean if you threw it at the exact same strenght it would sleep longer, but i’m not 100% sure of this ---

And It’s even my responsive yoyo. But then again, when you think about it, it doesn’t matter how long it sleeps, as long as you can get threw a trick. ---
