I finally got my whip today and it’s pretty sexy with it’s hourglass shape and all(if you turn it sideways…). I got a red one cuz it was that or a green so cuz they were the only ones left(I would’ve prefers black…). Well I’ve been playing with it since I put the string on it. It’s my first yoyo and it’s really fun to use and it feels great. It’s definitely worth what it costs. Like I said I’m kinda new to yoyo-ing so I’ve never tried to bind a yoyo. But this unresponsive yoyo has made me learn how to bind. So far I can only do a couple of tricks but I’m a fast learner. Overall it’s a really nice yoyo it’s pretty addictive if you ask me cuz once you start it’s hard to stop(I almost lost circulation on my middle finger cuz I was playing it non-stop). My cousins got jealous and all my uncles and my dad started showing me the tricks they used to do back in the day. I really like it and I recommend it for sure.
The Whip has what I call a D shape. Rounded inside and a bit of rim on the outside. Of course, my letter/naming conventions mean nothing. But, the shape of one half looks like a D, hence the reason I call it a D shape.
