Man, I was stoked to try this yo-yo. It’s one of those yo-yos that everyone hears about but not everyone gets the chance to try, so the second I saw someone at my club with one, I immediately grabbed it.
Man.
On paper, this thing should play great, draupnir-esque. But it just doesn’t. I even had a Draupnir to compare it to at the club meet.
It’s way too dainty and light. It felt like playing with a hybrid that had the rings removed. It didn’t spin long at all and had no power. It was just… weak. Needs more rimweight, or mass, or something.
Otherwise, it was… fine. I wasn’t offended by its existence like the Comic Sans or Naja because it’s a cool yoyo, just doesn’t play super great. With the developments in MG/SS I’d love to see a tweak to this.

This is the exact type of yoyo I wanted the ThruLine to be, everything the ThruLine should have been, and everything I’ve been looking for from OneDrop in a yoyo.
Probably one of my favorite EDCs because it’s a very flexible and generalist yoyo. Lovely shape and weight distribution make this a joy to play with.
I debated putting it in SS-Tier, but I think to really get it over the fence, it needs some design tweaks. Couple mm wider, maybe an extra gram(?), and just less gorilla grip with the binds.

I think a full-sized version of this would’ve been incredible. This thing just felt tiny and restrictive to me. It’s powerful and has decent stability for its size. It offers comfortable maneuverability but average pacing.
A 10mm axle with a yoyo this small and built the way it is is crazy though. I bet this thing takes a beating.
Play assessment might be a bit off because it’s been actual months since I played with this yoyo, I made notes for yoyos I tried with their ratings at worlds
