I had a special love for the Super Spinfaktor as it was my first. Wish I still had it, who knows what I ever did with it.

Second would be the Patriot. I used it for 5 years exclusively in college, mostly for 4A, just chucking it as high as I could to a friend back and forth. It held up, it was a machine.

Found the pic, it’s only the front sadly and only the X-con but there we go, already from the front you can see in which conditions is, I think is one of my most dinged yoyos!

Nice, that thing definitely was put to good use. Yoyojam took number one for me so quick back then, putting all other brands to the side (nothing wrong with those brands though.). I think Antiyo was the first brand after yoyojam that really gave me that same feeling.

For me Yoyojam and Auldey were the only brands I was able to afford (for the x-con I remember I had to save a little bit, it was around 40/50 euros at that time), I was 15 y/o if I remember well, I think I had my first metal Yoyofactory in my 20 and I was used to use my friends yoyos all the time as I quite over grow the x-con quickly but can’t afford anything more powerful.

That punchline in picture was a bday gift by lot of friends and it was a yoyo I always loved.

It was a good time, I used to use the same string for a month or 2 lol

I might be a little bias, but I loved the K-OS, K-OS Extreme, New Breed, and Diamondback! 🤣😭:heart:

Also loved the classics, Mini Motu, Kickside, Spinfaktor HG Xtra heavy, Hitman and Dark Magic! 🙂

RIP YYJ! \<3

I am almost positive I had a K-OS made with the HG material. Was that the Extreme?

If so, I did 4A like crazy with that thing, lol.

I really liked that HG material, wish someone could recreate it.

I got interested in yo-yo when yoyojam was on the back end, so my favorites are the dark magic 2, the surge(great plastic, no one talks about it) and the diamondback

This is my first and last yyj that Ive owned, I learn my proper horizontal trick with this, forced myself to use a slim bearing setup to smooth out my trick execution and had a chance to signed my classic to one of the YYJ Philippine member (J.Junsay).

I cherish this yoyo a lot and it holds a sentimental value.

I still enjoy my Patriot and OG Bolt, but the one that is still on the “Player Shelf” is the [Dragon Jam](http://www.yoyomuseum.com/museum_view.php?action=view&subaction=exhibit&exhibitid=426). When set up correctly, it is an awesome “Modern Responsive” and in the current market there are not many plastic options that play as well as this one with this slim shape too weight ratio. Runs on a B size bearing.
