In what way, though? It’s the age-old (and boring) discussion…

A yoyo I’ve kept while selling many “better” yoyos is the Werrd Pacquiao. It’s not particularly stable, fresh-looking, or long-spinning. Yet I love it. Sometimes no matter how good a yoyo is, you just don’t end up caring for it, while “loving” another yoyo that doesn’t match up spec-wise.

I know this isn’t the right place but I need a really quick quote on a tempered rim draupnir with an anno flaw on rim

And does the tempered one play any different from the other draupnirs?

From what I know, all tempered rim draups look like they have ano flaws  
and they play the same as other Draupnirs

Quoted for emphasis. I have a tempered rim and a black anodized and they both play the same. 🙂

Thanks for saying it 🙂

I think the Draupnir is a really great yoyo but it s just great… It doesn t have this little thing that makes you love a yoyo. I love the Sleipnir but i don t really like the draupnir. And i don t miss the one i had few months ago

This is condescending and serves no purpose other than to irritate.

I may have said this before, but it bears repeating: If it makes you feel good to say it; you probably should not say it.

Now back to your regularly scheduled thread…

Well, looks like I’m joining the draupnir club…

Do all tempered rims have some kind of anno error on it?

Maybe I just have different tastes. I have tons of fun throwing gen yos and yyr but my CLYWs seemed bland to me.
