Very good value for money for YoYo ball bearings

Very good quality and price. Additional bearing spacers allow you to adjust YoYo's operating parameters. It can be responsive or non-responsive, allowing for different types of tricks.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Unfashionable

Axles break best during outdoor sports and games

When I put the halves together, the axle broke on my two former raiders. Attempting to contact yomega directly didn't work, it was fine at first before it happened. I've been throwing Raiders since the 90's and have only had broken axles when seriously ROCKING halves, but not like this.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • The packaging is ugly

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Durable, for both beginners and advanced users.

This yoyo is built to last, I bought several yoyos before they got tangled and I had to throw them away. This yo-yo is durable and has 5 distance settings, which is very handy when you want to do different loop tricks. This yo-yo can be used by both beginners and experienced players.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Quality

Responsive yo-yo in outdoor sports and games

I used a yo-yo a lot as a kid, and recently picked it up again to entertain my two-year-old niece. This yo-yo sleeps very well, which makes learning tricks a lot easier. I also like that it comes with multiple spacers and extra strings. Also soft on the hands when rebuilding your yoyo so I prefer it over some of the metals I have. Have fun!

Pros
  • Featured
Cons
  • Poorly designed

Good loop yoyo but needs some work

Comes with 5 sets of shims to adjust gap width. Gaskets are not the ones specified in the product description but those in the pictures and on the packaging. Only the product description needs to be corrected. Pretty terrible reaction out of the box, even when changing pads. When using purple pads it has a good response with really good sleep times after proper lubrication. It looks like a modified raider.

Pros
  • Solid finish
Cons
  • Damaged

Poor loop response yo-yo

Nice looking yo-yo, comes with five different pads, unfortunately doesn't meet advertised specs. I mainly used it for loop tricks so I used gold spacers designed for loop tricks. What the heck are the specs talking about red spacers?!? No red pads included! The yo-yo does not respond at all, even after adding hinge lubricant. By the way, I am a very experienced looper. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who wants to do looping tricks with it. So when the pros use it, you never know how they…

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • High price
