The YOYO Factory Primo
First Impressions
Mmmmmm shinny, this yoyo is stunning to the eye, definatly one for outdoor play the way the anno finish catches the light it is simply stunning to look at. The shape well if a daddy superstar and a mummy skyline where to have a baby this is it.
Play
How does the Primo play you may ask, well let me tell you, so far I havent been able to fault this yoyo. I mean usually some bigger yoyo’s I have found to be like a marshmellow on a string, but the Primo is nothing like that, you throw it down and you know it’s there.
The Primo’s structure is amazing, it has thick high rims for exceptional rim weight making for nice long spin times, but doesnt lack in center weight either which make this yoyo extreamly stable.
I have had the Primo now for two days and the only time I have put it down is to eat sleep and to change the string because I created a nighmare of a knot. The Primo came to me completly unresponsive and in perfect condition.
The Primo has groves similar to the one drop P2 making arm grinds and palm grinds a pleasure and also has an IRG for doing wicked thumb grinds.

Response
The Primo uses K pads but they are the the skinny 888 versions, so if you are going to order some when you get your own Primo make sure you get the right ones. These K pads are a great response system, no slippy binds and great at returning even when the yoyo is spinning slowly.
The Insides
The Primo has a standard YYF bearing sent out completle unresponsive also it has the smallest axle ive seen ever, it’s about half the length of the DV888 axle.
tiny huh?
Looks
I bought the acid wash pink version and some YYE purple strings which comlement the brightness of this yoyo very well, so here are some pictures to cast your eyes over and get addicted.
So what do you guys and gals think?
You want to go out and get one dont you.
Final Say
So there we have it the YYF Primo in all is glory, as I said before I personally can not fault this yoyo, there is one thing I would like to see though, this exact yoyo brought down to the size of the DV888, but thats just a size preference of mine, but as a solid new throw the Primo has now become my new Main throw. This yoyo has definatly earned it’s place in YYF’s premium collection and to only pay $99.99 for this yoyo is a great deal and hopefully we will be seeing more great yoyo’s like this for great prices.
