Review on πŸ”₯ Duncan Light Up Intermediate Bearing 3572XP BL: Illuminating Performance for Intermediate Skill Levels by Carlos Reyes

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A fun toy for my grandchildren.

This is a fun yo-yo, the first I've used in half a century. The old yo-yos were wooden and never had a light, but the lights are a great addition, as is the ball bearing spinner that keeps it spinning longer than the old ones. For the price this is a great toy. I look forward to arguing with my grandson about who will play with him. On second glance I bought a set of spare strings because the string needs to be shortened for little people (granddads need longer ones) and because yo-yo strings get shorter over time. twisted knots in them and should be replaced. TO UPDATE. I gave my grandson a yo-yo at the 2018 Thanksgiving reunion and was stunned to see how much his father, another grandfather, and other adults played with it. You will definitely need extra strings (the Duncan brand comes in several colors), but I've found that you also need a SECOND YOYO so you can play it "with" the kid at the same time, ie so you can play it Be able to demonstrate and do tricks with your long yo-yo string while the child is learning to use it with their shorter one. The lights change color, getting brighter and more spectacular as the yo-yo spins at higher speeds and dimming at low speeds. You need to manage it properly so that the light dazzles with maximum benefit. I've found some very good yo-yo tutorial videos on YouTube that have helpful tips and tricks for beginners ('walk the dog', 'rock the baby', etc.) and we recommend that you familiarize yourself with them , before demonstrating the yo-yo. yo, yo baby It's better to impress than to be ashamed. Dispose of the packaging first. Watch the video and practice with it beforehand. Give it to your child from the bag, not the box. So much more fun. . .
