Is there any reason to buy one if you have Draupnir already? I’m trying to justify buying plastic yo-yos and it’s difficult. I just bought the Diffusions as a 3A beater set.

Totally different yoyos, and I love plastics. Plus I got rid of my Draupnirs, and I don’t miss them.

Hmm…It’s really worth 7800 yen? I’ve found a store that sells YYJ Next Level at the same price.

I’m on the fence. Which color has better resale value? I like the yellow slightly better but if clear has better resale value I’m getting clear.

I’d say that the Yellow has a better resale value. If you don’t like it I’d be surprised. Its well worth the money imo.

I honestly think that the Sunshine is so much better for 1A and 3A, but it has some negatives to it. Sunshines are prone to cracking which causes some vibe, but they feel so much more comfortable in the hand and don’t have a “kickback” to them, like the triad. Sunshines are distributed better so they are more stable but also faster, delrin is very smooth and better for grinds, FINGERSPINS ARE AMAZING ON THE SUNSHINE, and it is much easier to unscrew at first compared to the Triad 😛

To me Delrin and Molded plastics shouldn’t be compared. Two completely different plastics and a completely different ways theyre made. Weight distribution between the two are often very different because of the way they can be made.

From my knowledge every delrin yoyo I know of have been machined like metals.

Which do you think is better for 5A? I’m guessing the Sunshine since yo-yos designed for 3A typically make good 5A yo-yos.

Has anyone thrown both?

Has anyone tried a Sunshine? They look interesting. I like my 2014 Genesis, which has weight rings positioned much like the Sunshine’s.

Just gonna say that I don’t think the thin walls of the sunshine could survive many hits before cracking

It is nice that it glows though

Kinda what i was thinking. Cup looks very Laser-ish, then with a sharper profile.

It looks a lot smaller than a Laser. Either Ahmad Kharisma has very large hands or it’s more like Dazzler size.

ok the Triad is definitely a string eater, even if it’s very slowly. It can easily be played for hours without issues, but only in normal play. The weight rings are sharp and cut off strings after you’ve abused horizontal play. Adjusting tension can also weaken the string. Too bad, it’s such a great throw.
