So one thing I will say about the Northeast Regionals was that @YoYoExpertEric seemed to be very tied up with teaching people to yo-yo most of the day. I saw he had a little help from time to time, but the man certainly was being worked hard!
Maybe the Boomers club can volunteer to help at events where we have members nearby? For certain I’ll make sure to volunteer next time Northeast Regionals comes around.

The Origen, Workhorse, Weekender, PLTPS, all play different from each other for sure. The Weekender was my EDC until I got the Workhorse. I absolutely love my Workhorse - but the fingerspin cups on the Weekender may ear it its spot back as my EDC soon. All of them are great fun throws for sure! Welcome to the club and enjoy the ride.

My workhorse is my EDC currently, though I’ve been practicing my responsive 5a with the PLTPS. I can’t speak to the Origen, or Weekender. What I can say is the Spinworthy Dead’Orse (which I don’t own…yet.) is an AMAZING wooden 0a beast.

For 0A I really like the Workhorse, PLTPS, Plasm, Duncan Wheels (modded), and No Jive flying camel. I have at least one (usually more) of those nearby at all times. As much as the Weekender gets mentioned, I really should pick one up.
Other fun responsives that don’t get as much play include Deep State, Slim Jim, Thing, Origen, Firecracker, Apollo, and many others I’m forgetting.
There’s a few modern responsives I’ve been on the hunt for too, including the SW KNack, MK1 x SW Harbinger, El Mijo , and Janus.

How are your wheels modded?

I’ve found the new crappy ones actually play well if you just swap out the plastic bushing for a slim C bearing, but the one I play the most I also removed most of the starburst and cut a groove for flowable silicone.
I’ve considered 3D printing an insert to allow use of a smaller diameter bearing, but it’s low on the priority list of my current projects.

Speaking of playing crappy. I snagged a Hyper Accel Origin, and the response is terrible.
Even with a thicker string and some Chapstick.
It almost feels like the starburst isn’t raised enough.

Bummer! I picked up a hyper accel orig, loop, and wing and the response on all 3 is doing great so far.
I still want to grab a Wing and Loop. I won’t let this deter me!

Yeah mine feels terrible for anything that isnt a pull start dna or just pulling it open and closed.
Ive had to bind it back to my hand a couple times off a normal throw cause it wouldn’t tug back

That’s a great deal for a brand-new Workhorse!

Wow that is the exact opposite if what I have. It’s almost TOO responsive but I love it lol that’s unfortunate. Hopefully it was a fluke, what color did you grab?
Last I saw Brendan Fox was selling a gravel colorway (or whatever the official name is) Workhorse on FB BST (and/or) the G2 Nation FB Group. GrnarlyCharlie also linked the Red one for sale right here on YYE BST.
EDIT: Doh - that was suppose to be replied to @aorear85. Sorry Charlie.

Much appreciated! After you guys hipped me to the buy sell trade listings I ended up finding a space wagon color way which was the one I was most interested in. I should have let you guys know. Everyone here is super helpful! And yes I’ve caught the bug again but this will probably be my last throw for a while as I’ve gotten about a half dozen new ones in the past month. I’ll post some pics when I get them all

Oh my goodness! I absolutely love the stickers as well as the translucent blue.
Your mention of a Hello Kitty Yo-yo made me look it up, I am very fond of Hello Kitty and now I am debating buying one 
Thank you for putting this idea in my head.

“…but this will probably be my last throw for a while…” Ugh! Let me wish you the best of luck with this! The month of April and the start of May I’ve said that OVER AND OVER again while continuing to spend way too much money on - “just one more.” ROFL!
