YoYoRecreation Appreciation Thread

Literally 2 looping great yoyos can be bought for 40 dollars

$750 for an unpleasant looking Dazzler?! Iā€™m pretty sure youā€™d be able to pick up any 2 of the recent Titanium additions to the market (Dream Titanium, ciTIzen, Luftverkā€™s new Ti) for the same price if not lessā€¦ :-\

And $250 for 2 plastic loopers? Manā€¦ I can only imagine what their new ā€˜budgetā€™ line is going to be likeā€¦

New Rebellion Acro and Butcher! Made in china 6061 budget yoyos from yoyorecreation, only $170 each! :stuck_out_tongue:

lol its not quite that bad, the budget lineup is very reasonable priced at under $55 each with the current exchange rate. though i find the designs very bland and uninspiring, i have faith in yyrs ability to make a quality product.

the fg dazzler and polycarb negator prices otoh are absolutely absurd

You think this is absurd? wait for the TiSS pricing ;D

Your lifeā€™s savings and firstborn child

And a partridge in a pear tree.

Would you recommend a gold or platinum nskds bearing

prob platinum

To myunderstanding, gold outperforms the plat, but wears down way faster

Gold is pretty fragile so I would guess so

I think that these new line of budget YYRā€™s are going to play well. I find the designs to be a little mundane, but I like them! Been wanting to pick up a few budget metals, considering that more than half of my miniscule collection are all expensive :wink:

Iā€™m excited for the new budget line, mid ranged yoyos by yoyorecreation is the dream. These designs are solid, as they are mostly rehashes of recently discontinued high ends.

So I finally got a Draupnir. I expected the hype to overwhelm the actual yoyo. I have to say I am not disappointed. Crazy to have a yoyo so stable yet so light. Mine is dead smooth, barely any vibe with the fingernail test, even after taking it apart a few times with no tuning. Really enjoying it. I am impressed.

So far I can compare it to a Rainfly, Berserker SS, Genesis SS, and Space Cowboy bi-metals. I have a Nobunaga on the way. Itā€™s supposed to be lighter and have more rim weight than the Draupnir, will post a comparison when it gets here.

Iori got 11th its 2014jn all over again

lol, seems like JN isnt his place
On the other hand;

Takeshi got 1st, its 2014 again!

say it
say that he got 11th 'cause he didnā€™t use a black Draupnir

ITS A CURSE THE MATTE BLACK WILL CONQUER ALL IT IS GOD ALL HAIL MATTE

but didnt he get a low place last year even tho he was using a black matte

Your eyes are deceiving you the matte is a lie

Iā€™m so confused because Takeshi has such an amazing style and his tricks are SO good but I really like Ioriā€™s speed and their scores are so far apart

it was the old logo version last year
