Ok guys… when I saw this video : [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/7/c/f7c306f48a4d5866b590406226a0bc30459331af.jpeg "Theory") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Md25SXFAU80) I was like … yeah I am getting that … $62 … why not? I just got mine and I dont think I have throwed a $62 yoyo that played this well. first thing I noticed is the Yellow caps … but they actually looks green at certain angles … My friend actually thought they were two different colors ;D second thing I noticed was the groves which makes this very unique. The groves feel really smooth to the touch… awesome for palm grinds!!! On to the first throw … this thing feels really solid and smooth!! I thought maybe it would feel a lil heavy because of the 68.9g weight but nope this thing moves as fast as you want it to. I typically like lighter throws but this thing does not play heavy at all… it moves around effortlessly as you would expect a more floatier throw but its like in the middle… It comes with the YYJ speed bearing which is great and I just LOVE the feel of the V shape… I recently learned to throw horizontals… granted all I can really do is a variation of banana turnover but I have no issues doing that with this guy the first time I threw it. The response is not bad either… although I will probably silicone it since that is what I always do… it binds well and does not slip. I have to say … overall … I am really impressed… not just because of the price but the quality you get for it… oh forgot to mention the finger grind thing that Ben Conde does in the video … yea I tried it and I was able to land it on my finger but I was not able to bind it … lol hahahaha but I will get it. I know there are so many new guys on here asking what to buy with a budget … well… after using this … the only thing I will recommend is the YYJ Theory for $62!!! So spread the love … YYJ Theory … best bang for your buck for $62 IMO. Here is a pic of mine with some brand new pink candy wires ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/3/4/a/34aa389794d6579cdfd08b632d64aae22118d703.jpeg) ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/5/7/6/576a8cdaa66108ec00967012db40c9d2fed55770.jpeg) ---
