Plastic Fantastic: Yeti, Speedaholic, Shooting Star, Dove, Fulvia review/comparison. Giveaway!!!

[@turnersteafan1]

These comparisons are a lot better than any of the basic often biased reviews on KZbin. Thanks 👍

[@lxemergency]

You're very welcome. I just kind of addled myself what I would like in a review and realised that Wyatt I want mostly is something leaning towards being more objective and comparison based. This is my 5th video like this. I still have yoyos for a couple of more in my arsenal probably :-)

[@turnersteafan1]

@@lxemergency I think I've seen them all. Very informative and it makes it alot easier to compare. The iYoYo comparison video actually led me to get a shooting star. I love it. I actually just nailed it off the ceiling the other day doing Eli hops and I'm worried I may have misaligned it. I feel like it's leaning in a weird way. Been debating if I should get another but Im not positive if it's just me noticing my throw. Maybe an idea for a future comparison could be responsive yoyos. Look forward to seeing more.

[@lxemergency]

@@turnersteafan1 yeah it's an interesting thought. I don't have a lot of responsive throws. But I might consider getting a couple of borrowing a couple. If your shooting star is wobbly maybe try replacing the axle from another throw. I've had success with another yoyo doing that.

[@chronicawareness9986]

Awesome video! Please make more! Just subbed.

[@lxemergency]

Thanks! I do have a few more already and I have a couple in the planning stages. Start tuned.

[@nickdecker9523]

Great review! I especially like the honesty with the CLYW not being your cup of tea. I understand completely, as some yoyos just don’t end up doing it for me - sometimes for reasons that I don’t even know or understand. But it’s helpful to include that instead of saying that they’re all great. BTW, now I want a Speedaholic in that colorway 😂

[@lxemergency]

Thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@jackscolieri-v6g]

thanks for this video...i ended up getting 2 shooting stars ...so far ..they are great !!!! thanks ...keep up the good work , i just got back into yoyos after many many years , picked a great yoyo start start up again .

[@lxemergency]

Good choice! enjoy!

[@fatezero1919]

Great video. Which one is the most soft when if comes back to your hand so it doesnt hurt much, but has good spin and is stable at the same time?

[@lxemergency]

Out of this group probably the shooting star. Out of all the plastics I did probably the Edge-x 61 from the other plastics video I did

[@Nicole10238]

Nice vid! Love shooting star, one of my favorite throws.

[@lxemergency]

Yeah me too. I need to get another one in the nice new colorways.

[@Westbrook2023]

Just ordered a new Shooting Star after selling my previous one. It definitely has a unique feel and playability for a non-metal throw.

[@ZeroTSONG]

Great video again. Thanks! I have the shooting star and love it! Can’t throw a finger spin yet but excited to know I happened to pick up a yo-yo that’s great for that kind of thing.

[@lxemergency]

Just a matter of practise. At least you have the right yoyo for it 😁

[@richardanderson7872]

Nice to see the Dove, Speedaholic and Shooting Star compared as they are all similar. Would love to see where my Frosted Euclase sits amongst them. Another good video my man.

[@lxemergency]

Thanks. Yeah...there's a lot of similar throws, Topyo has one, Yoyofactory has one. Gathering all of them for a shootout would take me a while. But also comparing three of them has shown me that the real difference between them is really small and that if you have one...you don't really need another one in that genre.

[@thomazmarques1677]

Nice reviews mate!! And perfect timing.. I'm thinking of getting a Speedaholic. Keep up te good work!!

[@lxemergency]

Very welcome. Thanks for watching. Speedaholic is a good choice I really like it.

Great work Alexander ! Thx fore the work myfriend! Be safe !

[@YoyoDad76]

Fulvia is my favorite plastic by far! Speedaholic a close second! I'd love to get a Shooting Star and a Dove at some point!

[@lxemergency]

If you already have a Speedaholic then I'd look at the Dove first. The Delrin really makes it feel VERY different.

[@goncaloaraujo8625]

Fulvia and Speedaholic are both amazing ! Thanks for this video, very useful 🤝

[@lxemergency]

You're welcome. And yeah, all great throws.

[@cristianoarcari1975]

thx fo this video m8, i really like plastic and i have sppeaholic xx, sstar and fulvia

Sounds like you'd enjoy the dove. Another good plastic is the Aliexpress delrin I reviewed in it previous comparison video. Cheap but good fun.

I've a yoyofactory one yoyo and I want to buy another yoyo. I'm a beginner but I'm switching from responsive to unresponsive. What's the best in your opinion between Shooting star and plastic cheatcode? Have you a better suggestion? Thank you

[@lxemergency]

I've not had a chance to try the plastic cheatcode yet. But the sorting star is excellent

[@michaeldeatley5565]

Nice review of the speedaholic was curious about it and definitely will grab one after seeing this

[@michaeldeatley5565]

@@lxemergency nice ill email you right away!

[@Dwrecksk8Yo]

The vosun trinity, Varient, skyva and I love the sage honestly as well but you can’t fingerspin with it very well. Anyways good job man. The only thing I would say is that I wish that you would bring the fingerspina back to your hand but I do know that the results would have been almost the same

[@lxemergency]

If I bind the fingerspin then I'm cutting the fingerspin short...which means I have to guess on when to do that and that would add another factor of subjectivity to comparing them. But yeah, it always looks nicer when a fingerspin is returned. I did a Skyva in the previous video. Couldn't get my hands on a trinity or variant for this one. And thanks.

[@yourblah]

Yay love a giveaway gunna have to get a shooting star really impressed

[@lxemergency]

It's an impressive yoyo at that price.

[@XC1T3D214]

The shooting star sounds fun

[@lxemergency]

It is!

[@yoBigWave]

Absolutely love my shooting star.

[@lxemergency]

Still probably my favorite plastic

[@spaceyrat]

Nice to see the comparisons especially with the new plastic fulvia getting rave reviews. I forgot about the great fingerspin hubs on alternatives. Have you tried the Duncan Big Fun?

[@lxemergency]

Haven't had the opportunity. Duncan is kind of hard to find in Europe In general

[@sandravanoevelen562]

Only just starting my yoyo adventure with a single yoyo. I think I made a mistake though going straight for a metal non responsive yoyo. Looking for a plastic responsive one to help me get going, thanks for the comparison.

[@lxemergency]

Cheapest option is probably the MagicYoyoK2 (like the one I'm giving away), Shooting Star is the best option in my opinion though. Even if you eventually switch to an unresponsive you'll still have an excellent yoyo. But I just really like the Shooting Star.

[@sandravanoevelen562]

@@lxemergency I will look into both of these. Thanks again.

[@lxemergency]

@@sandravanoevelen562 No problem, the Shooting Star is about twice as expensive but worth every penny in my opinion. But the K2 is an excellent yoyo as well.

[@zamSEG]

hello sir, you should included variant and skyva in this video. thank you for this great video by the way. please keep it coming and have a great day sir.

[@lxemergency]

Did the Skyva in the previous review video. Couldn't get my hands on a variant easily. But maybe in the future. Skyva did really well.

[@zamSEG]

@@lxemergency duly noted and thank you for your quick reply sir. 👍👍👍

[@randompineapple1373]

Awesome reviews! What was the first part of the combo before the brother slack (?)

[@lxemergency]

Figure 8, pops in to Double or nothing, then throw it up and undercot the string in to Trapeze brother. If you need more detail let me know and I can make a tutorial

[@randompineapple1373]

@@lxemergencythanks learned these already and they look nice throwing them in between mounts/transitions. The figure 8 was a bit confusing in the first few minutes tho 😂 anyways cheers and will be looking forward to your future content

[@SamuelGoodwin]

I've tried most of these and liked them myself. Which one I'd pick depends on the way I think, haha.

[@lxemergency]

Yeah honestly they're all pretty good. Very few companies make "bad" yoyos nowadays. I will say that these blow the ones in the cheaper price bracket out of the water though.

[@sonicrocks2007]

Great video

[@jackdanyal4329]

Hey, nice video as usual. I also live in the Netherlands (Software engineer, 36 y.o.) and just started yoyoing and have a question if allowed 😅 which shops do you recommend for buying yoyos and especially bearings for yoyos. Thanks man

[@lxemergency]

In the Netherlands there are three shops at the moment. JoJo.nl, Circusexpert.no and speedcube.nl I like the first two shops best. For bearings my favorites are Mazal Top hybrid ceramics but the shipping cost from the U.S. is ridiculous so I usually only buy those when buying something else at the same time.

[@ArjanYoyoman]

Have you already joined the Dutch discord?

[@brawldragoon]

Hey, great review! Do you have the redesigned Sage Yoyo to compare it to the SHOOTiNG STAR? That would be very interesting, because I want to start learning to yoyo and figuring out what Yo-yo to to buy and I came to the conclusion to choose between these two. Sadly I'm to late for the giveaway haha. (I'm completely new to this and pretty much only know how to use an imperial shaped Yo-yo without any tricks.)

[@lxemergency]

Sorry, haven't been able to get my hands on the sage. Can't go wrong with the shooting star though

[@brawldragoon]

@@lxemergency Yeah that's what I'm probably gonna go with.

[@lxemergency]

@@brawldragoon seriously..it's probably my favorite plastic.

[@brawldragoon]

@@lxemergency Ooh nice! :D

[@brawldragoon]

@@lxemergency Do you have any recommendations on what to get together with my first Yo-yo? I've heard that I should get extra strings and thin / thick Yo-yo lube, but is there anything else I should consider or buy?

Keep going

[@lxemergency]

Will do!
