YoYoRecreation Appreciation Thread

I’m jealous of that collection! If you ever want to get rid of the Samm Scott e=mc2 please hit me up! I’ve been wanting one forever. I’m hoping for anything but undersized throws. Anything gold ano or raw would be dope. I would love to have a triplet or perfect star! In definitely sick with the YYR bug.

I agree with everything this man says! Especially about the spiders… no thanks!

The Triplet is definitely very curvy in shape compared to the standard YYR profile and i agree that it plays fantastic. What stands out with me is how powerful its spin is. When I give it a normal throw and then bind it, the thing shoots back into hand like a little missile. It’s got some serious momentum.

I’ve found the DreadnoughtG to be surprisingly fast considering its size. I was expecting it to be a brick on a string, and granted, you have to pull it around a bit as it won’t go fast without a fight, but it’s stability and spin time is just mental. However I prefer heavier, non-floaty throws so I can understand how it might not be to everyone’s taste. If you like light, undersided throws then this thing will probably feel like a monster.

First experience of YYR and I have to say I’m impressed. If they are honestly discontinuing Sleipnirs then I don’t know if I’ll be able to resist.

My box came today. Got a silver (not sure if it’s clear anno or raw) Triplet, a blue Uragment and an acid-washed splashed Re Clash.

Haven’t thrown them yet, though I’ve tried a Uragment before and wasn’t overly impressed. Bit jelly of the kids who got a Dreadnought G, would’ve loved one of them.

No time to take pics now, but will hopefully put one up tomorrow.

If the Triplet has engravings it’s clear ano. As far as I know all raw yyr are unengraved. Would have loved a Re-Clash!

Seems they had a glut of Triplets. Very interested in your Uragment. Might have some potential trades in the next day or two! Unless you actually live in Kazakhstan of course, lol.

Just checked my tracking and it should be here in a few hours when its delivered. Should I make an unboxing video?

Yes please!

Yuki

Got my mystery box and recorded an unbxing video. Should be done in 40 minutes and ill post it here. Overall i’m pretty pleased with this box.

Got 2 of my boxes and did an unboxing, but much to GregP’s delight i’m pretty sure i got a few raw and unengraved throws wrong, so i’ll just post a picture lol.

E=mc2(?), Attune, Uragment, DreadnoughtG, Gleipnir, Clashcube.

Really confused by the raw ones. My scale isn’t very accurate, only goes to the full gram, but the first raw one is 67g, which makes it too light to be an E=mc2, but too heavy to be a Blink, and the second one comes in at 68g, which puts it right at Gleipnir weight which seems the most obvious choice. What do we think, just a slightly light E=MC2 and a Gleipnir? That’s the one thing i hate about raw yoyos, sometimes it’s tough to tell.

How many more boxes are you getting?:o
And I’m pretty sure that’s what they are!

  1. Still looking for a Blink, Fragment, and Mr. Butcher if anyone sees a trade they’d be interested in. Can’t believe i didn’t get a Triplet, i was actually kind of looking forward to one, maybe next box.

If it feels heavy on the string then its more than likely an E=mc2 but if it feels lighter and faster its a blink. Hard to tell them apart since they are identical aside from the weight. The other one does look like a gleipnir but it als okind of looks like a triplet. It is wide or slim?

Geez. I may have to trade you for some other stiff if you get a reclash too!:slight_smile:

High chance you can get a triplet man

Oops, read your question wrong lol. 3 total, 1 more that should be here in a few days. 3 more would be awesome, i wish haha.

Left to right: Overdrive, Stargeyser, Attune

Okay I’m too impatient to wait for the video to upload haha! There’s a picture of the haul I got. I found it funny that everything I got matched each other. Glad I didn’t get any small throws. I love the overdrive and the Stargeyser I’m on the fence whether i like or not and I actually have the same attune but its getting traded so now I have this one! I’m willing to trade my mint in box never thrown Red Attune for a Mr. Butcher, Fragment. Uragment, Triplet, Perfectstar, Samm Scott E=mc2 and acrophobia

I have an engraved E=mc2 as well so i guess i’ll throw them back to back and see what i think. Pretty sure it’s a Gleipnir, by comparing it to other throws it seems to be 43mm in width.

okay then its definitely a Gleipnir! I want your e=mc2 so bad lol

That Overdrive is lovely. I have the new and old and still go back and forth on them. I think i might actually prefer the older version. Feels slightly more solid, but not in a bad way. The newer one has more of a hollow feel, which is also fun, but different. Amazing the difference those nubs can make.

I do find it delightful, NathanC. :wink: Hope they’re good throws, though. Seems hard to go wrong.

How does the Gleipnir play in comparison to the Sleipnir?
