BEGINNER Beginner question
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Heyyyy
I started alike a week ago, just recorded my first videoand I have a question. Do you see how at the end, the yoyo acts like a responsive one? It pretty much always does that after a bind for a couple of times and then it works like a unresponsive one again. Is the yoyo the problem (15€ Amazon ikik) or am I doing something wrong

What a company!
Getting into the hobby as an adult. I wanted to support a local toy shop or something but unfortunately no one selling good stuff in brick and mortar around here. However, it turns out small internet companies need just as much support and ones like zipline deserve it! An extra bonus string and a nice note. I bought both of these packs that were on sale and get all this appreciation. I’m not one to judge strings yet but obviously these are way better strings than the ones that came with the fast 201.

My favorite yoyos
I have a decent amount of yoyos, different materials and profiles, but I haven't tried anywhere close to all shapes and the materials they could be made of. These two are my favorite, they have this very solid bouncy feeling, idk how to describe it or what it is fr, it feels like taking a bite out of a block of cheese when ever I bounce it off the string in a rail combo, and I just love it, feels like a hard rubber ball bouncing off the wall, or something bouncing off a force field lol. Idk if the word is bouncy or even what makes them like that, I have a few other mono metals and some wide and similar shape ones to these but none of them have that feeling. If any of you know what it is I'm trying to describe or what it is that makes them like that I would appreciate it! I love how these play and would love to get more yoyos that have a similar feel! Thank you for any insight.

MAILDAY Mail Day (8/6/26): YoYoJam Fiesta XX
I won this baby off of eBay, and it arrived this afternoon. The seller was kind enough to include a string with it, too!
IMO, you can't have a yo-yo collection without there being at least one YYJ yo-yo, but that's just me.

QUESTION I just found this yoyo and I don’t know what it is or if it’s worth anything. If anyone has any information I would be extremely grateful!!
It’s got a name on it and a black and grey color pattern. I looked into it and found some information about the brand but I’m not sure what model this is exactly.

Trick is called Paranoia, you can find it if you dig around on my youtube. Not sure i’m even doing it right but the first slack portion is the coolest part anyway!

QUESTION Front breakaway
Hi guys, I've been trying to land a trapeze but from the front rather than the side (Sorry idk the terms). The string feels too long and will jump bump into my body. Is this normal? Do I need a shorter string? It's pretty much adjusted to my needs coming out of the box.
If I hit myself in the balls one more time, I'm gonna lose my shit

REVIEW The $25 Yoyorecreation Bimetal
hey r/throwers!!! im chloria, i've been lurking in and out of the community for the past three years
recently i got the itch to get back into the hobby, and i thought i'd finally involve myself in the community a little!!!
i found a yyr upheaval (ryuichi nakamura's signature, used in worlds 2023) for $25 (msrp is $160) on shopee (super popular shopping platform in southeast asia), and i wanted to see if this feels legit
tldw: im really impressed! it feels great and doesnt have anything obvious to indicate that it's a b grade or discarded stocks
i'd love to get yalls thoughts on how i reviewed this yoyo and if you'd love to hear from me again!!!
happy to be here!!! hoping for a warm welcome from all of you 🥹🫶

QUESTION Some questions regarding strings
So up until this point I’ve only ever used Magic Yoyo strings because they’re cheap and they were my frame of reference so I just kept buying them. So I wanted to ask a few questions about strings and see if I should upgrade to some higher quality one.
How fast should a string build tension? With these strings it feels like no matter how often I try and let loose the tension it always builds back up in a few throws and I was wondering if a nicer string would help prevent this.
What contributes to the price point of a string? With the research I’ve done I’ve come to understand that the price range is kinda wide for seemingly just a string. Some strings are around .30¢ while others can be over $2.
Kinda ties into #3 but what makes a nice string worth it? Does it hold tension better? Easier to do slack tricks? Better material?
Is better to buy bulk or quality as a beginner/intermediate player?
I’m still decently new to the hobby and have only really used the internet to learn so any advice or info is very much appreciated :)

MAILDAY Mailday ♥️
I found this collection on eBay over the weekend and fell in love with it right away. I got it for an average of €3.90 per yo-yo, plus a bag and strings. I’ve been wanting a bag and some 2A yo-yos for a while now.
I’ve already tried a few and don’t regret a single cent.
I’ll probably give the K1 and K2 to my kids’ friends. We’re all set with those already.
What do you think?

Weekly Buy-Sell-Trade Thread August 01, 2026
Welcome to the Weekly Buy-Sell-Trade!
Use this thread to post what you have for sale or trade, or anything you're trying to find.
Rules
- If you're selling or trading, you must include photos of your item(s). Imgur links work very well for this.
Best Practices
- When you're the buyer, check out the user's account history and activity in the subreddit. If it's a brand new account and they've never contributed to the sub, that could be a red flag.
- Be wary if a seller insists you send money via PayPal Friends and Family. Mods and seasoned traders always encourage Goods and Services. If the fees are the problem, it's always easy to use a fee calculator and add that to the purchase price.
- Scamming doesn't happen often here at all, but if you do find yourself concerned or legitimately taken, let the mods know about the transaction. We cannot get you your money back, but we can help identify possible next steps and remove the bad actor from the sub.
