Review on MAGICYOYO Responsive Replacement Unresponsive Intermediate - Ultimate Solution for Next-Level Yo-Yo Players by Greg Peitz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great plastic throw for beginners!

I made this purchase using the MagicYoYo x iYo Purple Line Yo-Yo. For a plastic yo-yo, this thing works great! Responsive Bearing: The responsive bearing in this out-of-the-box was completely silent. It has been greased, so you may need to trim off excess grease. It was fast and for a beginner thrower this is a great choice! The gap of the yoyo is very thin, so the strings (5 included) that the K2 is equipped with catch the pads very easily. Once you're ready for idle mode, you can change it very quickly! All you have to do is the included bearing removal tool, a longer axle (which I might add is silver! Easy to find if you drop it) and a concave bearing. Non-Responsive Bearing: It wasn't as quiet as the Responsive Bearing, but it showed the true potential of what the K2 Crystal can do! String tricks are very easy with this yo-yo's profile and spin times are pretty good, especially for a $12 yo-yo. The concave bearing that came with the K2 is much better than the bearing that came with the Purple Line, possibly because the Purple Line is an older model and may have been in stock. The yo-yo itself has some vibes, but it's $12 in plastic. yo yo Most plastic yo-yos vibrate. Whilst some people find this a downside, personally I don't mind, but for the price the K2 Crystal is a great choice for beginners, especially if you're looking to learn how to twist your fingers! The finger rotation notch is blasted, which ensures good rotation time when performing a finger rotation. The included gloves (which may be too small for adults) make finger twisting even easier. Grab this yo-yo while you can and keep playing with it since I got it!
