On it

After @pyrotechnic mods them they are. Otherwise if you sleeve the “axle” with a slim marker cap it actually plays okay as a fixie

What is a slim marker cap?

I’m guessing like the cap to a thin sharpie or crayola washable, but trimmed to make an axle sleeve.

I found this during a walk today. I must say I was less disappointed than usual to find litter.

If only I had seen who did it, I could berate them and then talk to them about yoyos.

If anyone is along I90 in NY, the GreenApple seems to be stocking Duncan’s. Butterfly, Imperials and XT. A little more expensive at 6.99, XT 12.99 but when you need one, you need one. :slight_smile:

Butterfly Xts you say? I like to scoop them 5 at a time from target and give them to kids that show interest in the greatest hobby in the world. 5 bucks a piece all day long out here in CA.

One of my first yoyos (unfortunately not proper, unable to sleep, string glued to axle, etc) came from a cereal aisle at the grocery store. At that time, I had never seen a yoyo sleep or know that it could sleep…so all I did with it was dribble til I got bored.

Rumor has it that the swirl graphic gives it super sonic spin times and rock solid stability :slight_smile:
