Specs: Diameter - 56.4mm Width - 48.4mm Weight - 64.4g Materials - 6061 Alu 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...
Note: The name of the Strider has been changed to the Skip since this article was published. Fixed-Axle February has just ended, and for over half of the event I was throwing a quintet of 3D-printed fixies created by Ardeus on the YoYoExpert Forums. Available to order...
I recently received a box from Freshly Dirty containing a Featherweight Canary and their latest yo-yo, the Fluke. After finally putting the FC down, I spent a fair amount of time throwing the Fluke, and it felt SO different from the FC that it took a bit of getting...
Freshly's Dirty's Featherweight Canary is a bit of an oddity in my collection. It is an inner-ring bi-metal yo-yo with a diameter of around 54mm and a weight of only 55g. It also sports a D-size bearing. Light and unassuming, it looks and feels smaller than it is. It...
Specs: Diameter - 51.95mm Width - 46mm Weight - 65.15g Materials - 6061 Alu (likely) with SS Rims 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...
Inspired by vintage Russel yo-yos, Layer Infinity's Classic is a design I've only seen, yet never played until now. Using Kasm guts, the Classic modernizes things and lets players throw modern 0a or use bearing locks for fixed-axle play. Since the whole thing can be...
Specs: Diameter - 54.5mm Width - 41.9mm Weight - 66.5g (with caps) Materials - 6061 Alu (likely) with PC(?) Caps If you put the enjoyment level of this yoyo on a graph, it’d be an exponential function where the Y is the enjoyment and the X is the age of the player. It...
Specs: Diameter - 54mm Width - 47.6mm Weight - 61g Materials - Damascus Titanium If you can buy this yoyo you’re in a different tax bracket than me. Consider donating your cordovan leather boots and Versace sunglasses to someone who needs them (me). At least it’s...
Specs: Diameter - 55mm Width - 44.4mm Weight - 63.5g Materials - 6061 Alu Fast yoyo but its size is restrictive, making it hard to land tricks. It felt like playing with an undersized yoyo. Play assessment might be a bit off because it’s been actual months since I...
Specs: Diameter - 57.23mm Width - 51.44mm Weight - 68.3g Materials - 7075 Alu Body w/ SS Rims I wanted to love this yoyo so badly. I truly did. But it’s just too heavy feeling for me. Felt sluggish and like it was lagging behind my movements, otherwise, it’s a GREAT...
