So do you have any yoyos that make your tricks too easy or spins too long? I have a few that gave me that feeling. The Genesis, Code 1, and pretty much every Yoyorecreation gave me this feeling.
Remember it the yoyoer not the yoyo. Basically you could do all the trick on a classic and still do the same tricks on a (insert mid-high priced metal or delrin yoyo). But your right about something.
Until a yoyo enables me to do an effortless Follow (as opposed to stacking my practice, as I’ve been doing) then there’s no yoyo to make me feel like I’m cheating.
Certainly stability combined with long spin time can make your life easier. Code 2 and SPYY Pro are good ones for me in this regard.
Yoyorecreation throws make me feel like I’m cheating when I’m doing horizontal. The one decent horizontal combo I have can be done almost effortlessly with enough power to do the same combo may once or twice more and still bind. That’s cheese!!
Actually… there is a point where the yoyo does affect the yoyoer. Most people don’t agree with this, but I’ll tell you why. When there’s enough of a large gap between the quality of 2 yoyos, then this will affect the yoyoer. For example, I don’t think Yuuki Spencer could win worlds if he used just a Duncan Butterfly. Of course, this is overthinking the phrase a bit
