Delrin grinding? (Milk, Milk 2%, Cream?, Gung-fu Gen 2/3)
« on: May 14, 2008, 11:49:18 AM »

I play mostly 5A and I would love to get a Delrin that is "perfect" in every way.

I have been waiting for the Cream like forever because I wanted another hubstack yo-yo, however that might be a lot more waiting. 

Yesterday I found out that Gung-fu Gen 3 will have bead blasted surface.  Does bead blasting really improve the surface a lot compared to regular Delrin surface (describe the difference)?

For those that owns both Milk 2% and Gung-fu gen 2, what do you guys feel about each yo-yo?
Which one has better surface?
Which one has a easy to use IRG lip (I still can't do IRG  Cry )?

I have only experience a couple of yo-yo for grinding.  Out of the Trainwreck, Satined Bolt, and Aoda Rainbow (fake 888), I think Aoda grinded the best.  I have 0 experience with bead blasted yo-yo. 

THANKS!!!!

I would imagine a beadblasted surface would be much better for grinding than a raw plastic surface; but then again, I would NOT base my decision to purchase a yoyo just because of how well it could grind or whether or not it has hubstacks.

I just got my Gen 3 this morning, I will be writing a full review later. the bb surface is mega sweet and this baby grinds fantastic, in fact before I saw this post, I was out in my yard, watching my hot lit 21 year old neighbor plant flowers in her bikini and thumb grinding my new gung Fu. it was a very zen moment...

My 2% grinds pretty well.  The Silk, when I had one, didn't.  That thing SUCKED.

So it's hit or miss with the delrin yo-yos.  The 2% definitely does the job though.

i was surprised about hearing about the bead blasted surface on the gung-fu.  has there ever been any other bead blasted delrin yo-yo before?  has anyone done it themself?  how did it hold up?  i satined a fhz once and in a few weeks time the satin had almost completely warn away just from regular use.  that's not delrin though.  have you tested these james?

You can hang a Gung-Fu on your finger when it isn't spinning. KILLER IRG lip. You need one.

Nobody can agree precisely what yoyoing is, yet everybody wants to argue about it and take it way too seriously to the point that people get tired of talking or even thinking about it. Thus, yoyoing is art.

I don't "grind" but I like how delrin deflects off my hands minus the drag.
compared to an aluminum hubstacked yoyo-
the cream doesn't torque as much on a missed catch. IMO

The only gung I have been throwing lately is of the Type 3 variety. But It's actually an old Gen 2 that I bead blasted a long time ago..  Still same surface and I loves it Smiley

nice.  i guess that's probably because delrin is a much harder material.

deBASer, you have the CREAM!

Is it possible for you to take more pictures with other yo-yos?

How does it play?  Does it work with Z / T stack?  Do you have any inside info when it'll be out?
