Author: Sottle
The Dark Magic is perhaps, the best YYJ on the market today, it's innovative in both its rim shape, allowing for easy snap starts, and it's undercut weight ring to allow for easy ring grind tricks. The weight distribtution is incredible, the yoyo is actually on the heavy side, but during play it feels light and fast on the string, giving you the best of both worlds. The hybrid response is a more versatile system than the Dual O-Rings featured in other YYJs as they can be played just as well at a high response setting as they can at a low response setting, making this yoyo superb for any level of player. Overall, this is just a very, very fine yoyo, buy 3.
Author: Ian Kemp (gingerbeardedboy@hotmail.com)
A great yo-yo, it's my main player. I've used it from when I was learning Splitting the Atom until now and I'm working on Spirit Bomb and slack tricks. The hybrid response has done me well at all response levels and opens the suicide loop enough for me to catch them quite easily. As Sottle said feels light on the string and has the ring grind lip. Watch Operation Dark Magic 1 and 2 to see what André Boulay can do with one of these STOCK, I saw that and bought one myself and after my friends saw me use it I had to order 7 more. A good yo-yo for anyone.
Author: Josey McCormick (josey@yoyonation.com)
great yoyo. my fav. yoyojam with aluminum rings. great for single A.
Author: Francis Cuartero
This is the yoyo I currently use...all the time. I carry it with me everywhere. It's really the most reliable (and best performing) yyj today (that I've played with). I play with no sidecaps (to make it a bit lighter) and a cleaned bearing. Other than that, I don't do anything else to it!
Author: Weber Hsu
This yoyo is great even for a beginner like me - make sure you clean out the bearing and know how to bind - as their won't be much responsiveness after that is done. My favorite yoyo at the time!
Author: ed haponik (kinopah@verizon.net)
great. i don't find it to be the best thumb grinder out there (or even the best yyj thumb-grinder), and it's a bit heavy, but it's a great all-around player. it feels really wide, but spins all day. this is the only yyj that i feel really takes full advantage of hybrid response.
Author: Mr Yoyo
Excellent! The yoyo is great for who is starting and for who is already a good player. If you don't know what yoyo to buy, and you want the best of all, I can say that Dark Magic is your choice! Buy 5
Author: Mr. Loser
Thanks guys you helped me decide to get one. It really does work well.
Author: FH master
i got this yo 4 days ago and it plays better thn my eetsit! this yoyo spun 4 min!this is one of my favs. it plays like butter in oil yet u still get good binds!
Author: Yo-Yo Master
this yo-yo is curently my main and i can say that it has done me good. it has taken me from some of the most simple strink tricks like brain twister, all the way to some of the most complicated such as ladder escape. just pop in a freshly lubed concave bering, lose the caps, and add some spacers (all this makes the yo-yo verey unresponsive but that is the way i like it) and all i have to say is WOW. one of the best yo-yos i have found for thumb grinds (w/o the caps that is) and it holds the string loop open just right for suicides. but if u like a yo with more respons then go with a hitman. (not the hybrid) i DO NOT recomend this yo-yo for beginers. this is a must have for all serious yo-yoers. i give this yo a 10/5. this is 1 of the best yo-yos for the price!!! YYJ has realy produced a winner with this one!
Author: jacob broske
Its great... i love it baby. it almost as good as my Pyro
Author: jacob broske
Lol as Sottle said"Buy 15"
Author: Chipmunk
Hey dudes sup! im a seirios yo'r and im leaning towerd this yo. i know it sounds stupid but can someone tell me what binding is? p.s.im still using a fast 201 as my main lol Chipmunk out :>
Author: resident evil
i love this yo more than my pyro
Author: Markus Smary
I bought the Hitman first and was looking for a ever better YoYo. In Germany it is very hard to get information about the differnt YoYos, it is nearly impossible. Your reviews on this side about the Dark Magic convinced me to buy one, after I had the DM I was thinking about to buy one fpr weeks. Thanks for that guys. I got it two days ago and the only thing to say about is. WOW! I play it (like many others) with a cleaned bearing and thin YoYoJam oil on the bearing. Also removed the sidecaps. It makes the DM not only a bit lighter but even better "in the flight" (maybe only my feeling). Greetings from Essen, Germany!
Author: Markus Smary
after I had the Hitman I was thinking for weeks :-)

THE BEST YOYO!!!! YOU WILL NOT REGRET BUYING!! Sleep tomes are rediculously long probably 3 min, its silky smooth on string tricks, and has perfect balance and response. what else can you ask for? BUY IT!
Author: Zach 6106
I love this yoyo. It's the king of grinding. It's grinding gets 100/10!!! Woohoo!!! For string tricks it gets 9/10. I love the shape and the shape gets 50/10!!! Woohoo!!!

Author: Awsomeman400
The Dark Magic is one beastly yoyo. It's smooth and is great for(thumb) grinds. "Ok on palm and finger grinds". Mine currenty sleeps for about 3 minutes. It can do one full rotation gyroscope flop. My ratings: 1.) Smoothness 9/10 2.) Grinds 9/10 3.) How much it cost 10/10 4.) string play 10/10 5.) overall 9.5/10 This is a must buy for any serious yoer!!! =D
Author: Keni Joseph Mori
!WOW! thats all I can say. I just receive this like 5 days ago and WOW super awsome!!! This is the first yoyo I ever bought from yoyonation and the internet, and its the best yoyo I got, its now my main at the moment. Its grinds are totaly wicked, and it sleeps long enough. And when Im playing it does not seem to be heavy. The Hybrid Response System is so cool too . This yoyo is not a waste of money.The delivery service was fast too.I did not expect for it to come so fast.Thx YOYONATION your the best. All in all its the best yoyo I have. Its a good yoyo for a serious player..... so don't waste your time......... buy this yoyo its the best.............Try to collect all its colors....... It really ROCKS!!!! =D
Author: 3nder
I just ordered one =)
Author: DudeofYo
This'll be my next yo. I can't believe its SOOoo cheap ( though its about to become the most expensive in my collection ). P.S., Hey chipmunk guy, a bind is a reverse under mount that you forcefully feed into the gap to make an unresponsive yo return. You basically feed tons of slack into the gap of an unresponsive yo. Examples of bind mounts would be such as a switch trapez (backwards trapeze ).
Author: Allan Gadbaw
Thanks for the reviews I'll order one!
Author: idk
I've had my DM for about 2 months now. With the stock bearing, I was surprised by the spin times and the playability. After I got my KK I was blown away. Mine sleeps for over 2.5 minutes. It's amazing with or without a KK. I've learned split the atom on this yoyo and now I'm working on And Whut? and Superman. Such a great yo and a KK is a must have for an up-and-comin yoer. Get one!!!
Author: agonzalez
good yoyo just dont slam it on the ground to much or it Will break mine broke about a month after I got it

Author: Chris
When i was a beginniner i used the fast precendent yoyo, but it sucked. then i got a hitman, speeder, and a grind machine 2. After i read the comments about this i decided to get a Dark Magic and it is the ******* best yoyo!
Author: aquateen
sry I got this yo yo about a week ago and i can say its at the top of my collection best purchase i have made in a while so get it now!!!
Author: 3nder
This yo yo is great. Packaging: N/A its a package, not that important. Look: I like the combination of metal and plastic. The pogs also look cool depending on which one you get. Weight: I love the weight, its just perfect. At 70 grams it may be heavy for some but I think its perfect for string tricks. Its also great for offstring, and I've looped with it. (This is not recommened and I failed miserably.) Smoothness: Its really smooth. If not for the annoying sound the starbursts make then I wouldn't be able to tell it was spinning. Play: Its kind of wide so its may be tricky at first to hit certain strings, like in Cold Fusion. Its great though regardless of width. Other: The weight gives it great spin times. I've only been yo-yoing for a few weeks, like three, and I've gotten sleep times of three or more minutes.

Description: (Provided by YoYoNation): The Dark Magic yoyo is André Boulay's signature YoYoJam yoyo. Not only has he used it well in many competitions, André has innovated a whole new style of tricks with the distinct shape of this yoyo. The yoyo is extremely wide so it makes string tricks a breeze. More importantly, removing one of the caps reveals the inner rim enabling you to perform André’s style of thumb grinds. Uses the Hybrid response system (one yo-ring half, one starburst half). This yoyo is so great out of the package that even André plays with the yoyo stock! Specifications: (Provided by YoYoNation): Manufacturer YoYoJam Shape Butterfly / Wing Weight (g) 70.60 Width (mm) 41.31 Diameter (mm) 56.34 Gap Width (mm) 3.40 Bearing Size (Inside x Outside x Width) .250 x .500 x .187 in Gap Type Adjustable Stock Response System YYJ Hybrid Out Of the Box: Looked really good. When I got it, I took out the caps, and did nothing else. At first, it was too responsive, but after an hour, it became unresponsive enough to do grinds which are very good with this yoyo, but I'll get to that later., and other things, but it was still really responsive. It slept for about 2 minutes too, and was wide, so it was easy to preform tricks. Playability: One word: Amazing! Unless your throw is funky, the yoyo doesn't vibrate, or wobble, at all. Most likely, it will not die during tricks. Because of its width, it is really easy to do a lot of tricks. In fact, the day I got it, I learned Kamikaze! The weight is really focused to the rims, resulting in long spin time, and the shape is unique, yet comfortable in the hand. Also, the hybrid response is really great; it can be responsive and unresponsive too. In addition, the Hybrid Response is great for suicides, and lacerations. Size: This was one of the things about the Dark Magic that surprised me. Not in a bad way, because its size is one of its attributes that contributes to the success of it. However, compared to other Ia yoyos, it is noticeably large, but the weight wasnt an issue with me. You will get used to the size eventually. It is slightly wider and larger then the kickside, but smaller then the Journey. Grinds: When grinding, it feels like a cool gentle breeze on my arm. Honestly. It will spin on my arm, then, it will have more spin left afterward. I was never good at grinding, but now i can manipulate grinds as I wish, and pull of stunning grinds! The flat rims dont only prove good for snap starts, but also add greatness to grinding, Thumb Grinds: I was also never good at these, but the Dark Magic took this to a whole new level. It was made for them, and the way Andre designed it, was with 2 grooves, inner, and outer. The inner was made for more control, and progressed slower as it rotated. The outer ridge, progressed faster, however, took less spin time, whereas, the inner takes a lot of spin time. Overall: 9.5/10 Really great yoyo! Thx YoYoJam, and Andre!!!!!
Author: Ryguy
the Dark Magic is a great yoyo. its shape allows good snap starts and the inner grind ring is great. its response system hold suicide catches. i would recomend it for anyone.
Author: charles foster
i got a black dm with kk bearings and i just ordered a blue dm with kks! i love this yoyo so much. my everyday throwers are the dark magic and my milk 2%!
Author: Curtle
This yoyo is way way way way too responsive for me. Sand down the starburst and change the response to a silicone pad, then it will treat you well.
Author: Dean
can anyone help me 2 get this yoyo unresponsive is it supposd 2 be responsive out of the box or do i just have 2 play wit it 2 break the bearing in
Author: Phil Davis
This is a great yoyo. it can be used by all levels of talent, but is especially good for thumb grinds and tricks like McBride rollercoaster
Author: Ranen Dahan
this is a great yoyo. pretty smooth on the string you can get lots of strig in there before it snags.great weight like everyone else says it is very light on the string.it is responsive when you get it but take off the shields and clean the bearing then lube with thin lube and dont put the shields back on because its sooo much easier to clean when the're already off. but anyway its a great yoyo especcially with its price and i recommend especiall it to everyone even if you use expensive yoyo just buy a couple for your collection its a nice addition
Author: Ranen Dahan
dean get some shims two red two grey and put the red one on the side that holds the bearing tightest and a grey one on the other side and then the bearing wil be more centered and you can adjust the gap more than two red shims
Author: Teejay Hernandez
i got the grind machine instead of this. im so glad i did. because grind machine (plastic with hubstacks) is so cool and smooth very awesome yoyo too! and and the yoyo and bearing dont need to be worn out and played the PGM is unresponsive outta the box for intermediate players to experts ;]] PGM all day xD
Author: james Morris

Author: yoyoman
This dark magic is so sweet. If Andre Boulay made it im going to buy it in a heart beet. I love playing with it. It is my favorite yoyo. When you get it out of the box it is a great play. It is so easy with the gap width so wide to land string tricks. YoyoJam's best yoyo if you ask me. *smooth *responsive (out of the box) *great for all kinds of thumb grinds *easy to land
Author: Eamonn Sweeney
Great yoyo. Must have for any serious yoyoer. I shaved down the o-ring and cut it 75% down and it's amazing. Worth all the money.
Author: Christie Zerkel
words cant describe this yoyo
Author: Bob Pitt
I absolutley love this yoyo. It is true its very responsive whin you first get it, but all you have to do i give it some thin lube and then it goes unresponsive. If you get the Konkave bearing upgrade its even better. The only problem i had was with the axle. after like a week it became sheared and when i threw it down it came apart. all i have to say is blue loctite fixed it in a jiff. Awsome Yoyo for all levels of players
Author: bj daproza
got it like 1 day ago and it is 1 of da best yoyo i hav ever used!!!!!!!!!!!!!ps. good yoyo of choice
Author: mityman
I just bought mine at the viginia state yoyo comp. WONDERFUL thats all i could say I give it a 9.5/10
Author: Andrew Dettra
I am begging for someone to help me here. I just got the Dark Magic yo-yo about a week ago and i love it. But it will only sleep for about 20 seconds. I don't know why because I bought a KonKave bearing and put it in immediately. But it will still barely sleep for 20 seconds and I don't know why. PLEASE!!!!! someone help me get it to sleep for as long as it is supposed to. Is it me? Or is it something else. Please tell me Thanks Andrew
Author: mity man
the only thing is IT SNAGS and if you unscrew it it will fall apart in the middle of your tricks

Author: Myles Mendoza
This is by far the best yoyo i have used. The second i started using it i learned at least 5 new tricks that i wasn't able to do with others. Great spin time, well balanced, awesome yoyo.
Author: Riley Thomsen
best from yoyojam, a little wide and heavy but can be great if moded and taken care of if your looking for intermediate then by it also it's not to unresponsive but if you like unresponsive then mod it

My dad doesn't let me buy because he is very scared it will not reach Thailand.
Author: Andrew Evans
If the Dark Magic yoyo is supposed to be very responsive when you get it, there MUST be something wrong with mine. Mine is unresponsive, so much that a bind won't even return it. Also, if you take a look at the detailed photos, you will see that the axle is on the side with the starburst, but mine is on the side with the yo-yo ring. Overall: 9/10 P.S. it is a stock and I haven't lubed it yet.

My first good yoyo, I can do like 6 different trickswith this yoyo before bringing the yoyo back. The only thing is mine only sleeps for like a minute. I seen youtube videos that have them sleeping for more than 3 minutes. How do I make em sleep that long? I have kk bearing and 3 shims on each side that was included with the bearing kit

Author: Mike Menart
hmmmm
Author: yoyoman93
sometimes when im in the middle of a string trick my dark magic catches the string and it shoots at my hand should i shave down the starburst? and would that fix my problem?? p.s. please help and my o-ring is already flushed
Author: Max
I was a big fan of Andre Boulays instructional videos. When I realized he was using one of these in all of the videos, I decided to buy one. The yo-yo is a decent price and is extremely capable (as seen in the videos, obviously). The only problem I've had with it is that it cracks easily. Not the fault of the yo-yo, but if it does hit the ground, it's likely to crack.
Author: Nick
Mine sleeps for a LONG time.... if you consider 25-30 seconds long -_- binds arent so great, wobbles a little. and whats the point of an adjustable gap if it doesnt modify the response at all? overhyped -_-

this yoyo is amazing its so easy to do grinds its very smooth and its my overall favorite YYJ yoyo
Author: captainhunter
absolutely amazing! clean it, lube it (light), shim it a hair or 2 wider... and it plays as hard as my Werrd TFL88. (which is 3 times more expensive!) The only thing the TFL wins at is thumb grinds... but the rest goes to the DM for a fraction of the price. Thanks Andre!
Author: ultracow
Its a great yoyo with insane sleeping time. With some skill it can sleep for 4 minutes. I have tried,i got it to sleep for about 3 min and 45 sec. If your considering getting a dark magic but are not sure,get one it is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooowearth it.

great yoyo but problem it cracks really easy if you get this take the side caps out so you can check for cracks every time it hits the ground but im making it sound bad great yoyo awesome for thumb grinds 4 1/2 /5
Author: yoyoman93
what you can do to help your darkmagic play better is clean the bearing and add some thin lube make the O-ring in the yoyo flushed also you could remove the side caps for some inner ring grinds...but this just i play with my darkmagic...

hey guys I just got my drakmagic and i want to know what is an O-ring and how can I make flushed? Plz help
Author: Felipe
hey who knows what O-ring i have to buy to replace the original , because ill buy a dark magic and i know that some day ill have to replace its O-ring
Author: yoyoman93
a flushed O-ring is just a O-ring shaved down about 15% and a good O-ring that i buy is called a born crucial O-ring...you can buy them here a yoyonation...hope this helps
Author: yoyoman93
yoyolover go to the detailed images and that black thing that you see inside the dark magic is the O-ring
Author: GameonDMan
I wonder why the black goes away faster than the red.

Author: craig ellis
great yo yo just got mine totally pleased. Ive been playing a Lyn fury for about a year now i love em both ..the dark magic is definitely gonna make me work on my binding a Lil harder
Author: anthony kong
this is one of the best yoyo's ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Author: Jake
The best yoyo you can get for its price. I was somewhat unhappy with what I got though. The DM spun for 30 seconds, it always seemed the string was touching the sides. I am ordering a KK though. I want YoYo nation to restock, and also... KONCAVE BEARING RESTOCKED! YOYOJAM KONCAVE BEARING SET RESTOCKED! and..what happened to the RED DM color? AND NEW WHITE COLOR!
Author: merrillb
this is a great yoyo i have had for about two weeks and its the best i had ever had.... great thumb grinds, snap starts, bind, and sleeps for a long time.... god for starters like a friend of mine. everyone should have one!!!
Author: Jake
Anthony did you thin lube and use Konave?
Author: anthony kong
believe it or not,my dark magic spun for 6:10.
Author: HELP HELP HELP ME!
Ok I got my Dark Magic about five days ago, I only get a 30 sec sleep from it. The string IS ALWAYS touching the sides how do i fix this?
Author: troy baker
just ordered mine yesterday with some extra string. cant wait to play it!
Author: troy baker
mines on the way... cant wait! i ordered some string with it too.. hear its great
Author: Quinn Bress
I just ordered one! hope it's good. I'll give a full review once i get it.
Author: Cynthia Martin
the yo-yos exellent but the ball bearing just broke after 6 months
Author: troy baker
i got an aquamarine one :D
Author: Yo Mama
great yoyo i bought it a couple of weeks ago and i love it i cant stop using it
Author: gleock
best yo yo ive ever had i put a konkave ceramic in it and it sleeps for almost 5 minutes buy it now
Author: troy baker
i got mine about 3 days ago. its pretty good. its not that great at binding, because every time i bind it gets a knot and i have to take it apart every 10 minutes. thats the only downside. it sleeps like a beast, and i can do lots of tricks with it. its really easy to do a gyroscopic flop with it. overall id give it 9.5/10
Author: Samuel Smith
this yoyo is the bomb. it has not responsive unless lubed. if you are going to buy this yoyo learn to bind first. it has crazy sleep times that alowes you to do very long string tricks and it can hold many layer of string. P.S.its not that good at grinds but thats just my me

Author: Gobind Singh

Author: Ryan Moore
I bought this yoyo off this website and it took a week to come in, normal right? but when i opened the box i saw that they sent me the speedmaker instead, so i sent it back and they said that when they get it they will send me the dm in fly mail so it would arrive the next day and my familys mail arrives in 5 days and i have been waiting 2 weeks since than and its still not here and im MAD! andre boulay still rocks though!
Author: billy bob
dark magic is awesome!!! getting mine soon!!
Author: morad samara
i have a yoyo .. its really good yoyo but when i saw the dark magic yoyo .. i said i must to buy it
Author: Unknown
this yoyo will rock your world forget the other hybrid yoyos like speeder and the hybrid hitman thiks yoyo makes them look like your grandpas wooden yoyo what im trying to say is its killa
Author: smiley
wow, it looks cool and i need help with some string tricks.
Author: Ryan Moore
this yoyo sleeeps longer with the caps on then without them on it is wierd but i am also getting synergy caps YAY!
Author: chunky munky
Does andre boulay use a konkave bearing??? somebody answer
Author: Anthony Ascencio
Really good yoyo!!! , if you want even more put a clean kk, 0.30 metal shims, shave the starbust just a little, a any o pad o ring, highlights yell-o, and it really fly!
Author: Yoyo4life
this is perhaps the best and almost only yyj yoy i own. its extremely smooth for string tricks and has an insane spin time with my kk bearing. i recomend this yoyo to anyone experts and beginners alike because it is well worth your time and or money. its metal weighted rims make aperfect spin without any wobble and if you remove the caps its the perfect yoyo for tumb grinds. you can definately rely on yyj to make a yoyo of such superb quality i mean i couldnt (and still cant) stop playing with this it is awesome.there is no question that this yoyo and its maker are some of the best in the yoyoing community.

hey guys i have a lyn fury and i dont like the feewl of it does the dark magic play like the lyn fury or no?

BEST YO-YO I HAVE EVER BOUGHT!!! I have a lot of yo-yo but this one I always choose. I would recommended this yo-yo for any intermediate to expert yoyoers around the globe. This the next level yo-yo you will ever get (not recommend for beginners unless you buy a thick lube but seriously not recommended to beginners ). If you don't like hybrid response (O-ring one one side and starburst on the other) then i would still recommend u to try out this yo-yo. If not oh well your lost. This is great for 1a also those of you who are fanatic of 1a. Buy it it's worth the money. I wouldn't guarantee you but it will worth the money trust me on this one.
Author: smiley
Anthony, so you got a white dark magic hope you get it in a few days new breed looks exactly the same as dark magic I might get new breed after I lost spin faktor I might find it though.
Author: smiley
anthony speeder looks insane but dark magic is probraly alot better than speeder so stick with dark magic !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think I spelled your name wrong.
Author: smiley
Well I can't find spinfaktor so it's either dark magic or new breed I guess I'm getting dark magic.
Author: anthony kong

Author: Scruppy
ok so i just got a dark magic and i love it but im running into a problem the string keeps going off to one side of the bearing and rubs agaist the wall and advise?!?
Author: steelerz fan
this yoyo is my favorite of my yoyos! i have had it for about 5 months and i love it! it rules! GO PITTSBURGH STEELERS!!!!!
Author: Steelerz Fan
this yoyo is great for intermediate yoyoers! i love it and it is worth all the money that you have to pay. $40.80 is sort of alot of money for a yoyo but it is worth the money you have to pay!
Author: austin wilson
i am getting one ,and cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!!
Author: Robert Mennell
I received a dark magic just a few days ago and I must say, it is a GREAT yo. It sleeps long with more than 50% of it's weight in the outer metal rings. The plastic on the interior is fairly smooth so that it won't catch the string, and the half star burst means that it won't wear down your momentum so much during a string trick. All in all, a great yo for intermediate to advanced yoers.
Author: Kyndell Stricklin
this yo-yo is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! tht was the best way i can put it
Author: Brent Malik
Very good! this yoyo is awsome! This is the best yoyo i have probably ever have thrown...and for the money... you can't beat it, a professional grade yoyo at this price!!! unbelievable! GET ONE!!!!! nuff' said 10-10

I'm loving this baby! Smooth( not dead smooth yet) and unresponsive out of the box. Impressive for IRGs and thumb grinds. Bang for the buck, cost around $40, but I got it for free at GamingLagoon! http://www.gaminglagoon.com/?ref=584703 SUCH A NICE BEAST!

Hey whats up guys am back from Honolulu my parents got me one for a presnt it grinds so good like
Author: Juan Ahumada
I was very disappointed when I first got the Dark magic. Right out of the box it felt like a standard ball bearing yoyo. There's really nothing special about it. I have owned a protostar for 2 weeks before I got my dark magic and it is BY FAR superior in every way to the Dark magic. I was disappointed with this yoyo but other up and coming yoyoer's may like it because it makes a good learning yoyo.
Author: tessa piccillo
me want
Author: Ekaterina Tsoy
I can't wait to learn new tricks with my new Dark Magic yo-yo. I like cool tricks like Mack 5 or Gyroscopic Flop. my Dark Magic is black. I also ordered 100 white strings.
Author: Ekaterina Tsoy
my yoyo is not coming for 3 business days. I am so mad. I want to play with it!
Author: dayton tavares
this is the best yoyo ever 10/10.
Author: dayton
my yoyo is still responsive . how long does it take to go un- responsive.
Author: No Name
its ok but my yoyofactory speed dial is better so i use my yoyofactory speed dial for 1-a and my yoyojam dark magic for 4-a
Author: Marcus Thomsen
this yoyo is just awsome you can do thumb grind tthats is also awsome awsome awsome awsome awsome awsome awsome awsome
Author: Zepher Gath
I ordered mine yesterday i hope it's good. =)

This yyj yoyo is the best for its price on the market I love it and am going to get the atmosphere next I love it and yyj is the fastest shiping ever I got it in 2 days and I am in Texas right now and there in New York,New York all in all great yoyo!!!
Author: Phillip Sapp
i loved my protostar, this changes everything! the best yet
Author: stringburnt
looks great, arm grinds very well, has long sleep times, has nice weight, but is light while doing tricks , extremely stable, irgs are great (but i use thin lube on the inner ring lol, and sometime clean it with a q tip), caps are rattley sometimes, and one is made to fit looser (it spins), came with an awesome yyj speed bearing, and it has a different cage system (i forgot to lube it or something(its my fault) for way to long and it has a nasty finger flick speed wobble now (the stock bearing), slows quickly when tooo much string is in the gap (i use yyn highlights) and through sloppy tricks.overall a great yo-yo, i would rate it 8.1/10
Author: Sb
it looks like some of the reviews are from people who dont have a dm lol, and i find there is too much hype over this yoyo, i think its because of expertvillage and operation dark magic vids.lots of yoyos can do that. look, its not unresponsive even with r shims and a cleaned bearing. the reviews say almost the same as the description does. its not really (Quote:) "HOOOOLYYYYY SH*T!!! This is THE BEST yoyo i have ever owned." in my opinion. more like 8.1/10 stars and like most of my other yoyos
Author: Dennis Barahona
Oh man, one grey left :O wonder if they will continue production now that the II has come out
Author: Zepher Gath
Way too responsive. What I mean it is on the string it snags the string cutting it's sleep time in half, and if I bind it takes forever to come down. don't get one, instead get dark magic 2. two out of five. PS. I hate hybrid response system!
