So I just recently got this yo-yo at a meet. What is it? I was told it was a OneDrop Benchmark V 2013 edition, but I’m not too sure. Images @ [Yo-Yo ID #1 - Album on Imgur](http://imgur.com/a/dDTeK)

I was the one who traded it to you. It is a 2013 Benchmark V.

Looks like a benchmark to me. Side effects are a little weird but that’s it.

That’s a 2013 OneDrop Benchmark V. However, the sides have been switched so it’s a half and half.

It has been traded out to have Code 1 SideEffects.

The reason for the Side Effects looking like that, is that yoyospirit mirror polished them.
