A new review? Hell yeah. No, this thread isn’t dead. A quick update in general: Good morning gang, it’s been a few months since I’ve posted anything regarding yoyo, and that’s mostly because I’ve been busy with school, training for an out-of-state job that I’m very...
While I've certainly played my fair share of MK1 yo-yos, this is the first time I've played a Yoyofriends release. This collaboration is a tri-material beast, comprised of 7075 aluminum, stainless steel, and polycarbonate. The Heron features a V/H hybrid shape with a...
