Shinwoo Griffin Wing Review! Comparison pic added!
« on: June 15, 2008, 05:29:08 PM »

My setup for this yoyo is.

Stock with 1/2 drop of thin lube

Package:10/10!

Really cool Box thing

Looks: 8.5/10


Im not sure about the other colors but this blue is poppin in real life

The side caps are really cool too!

but  i dont reall dig the white around the middle.

Shape: 8

Its a mix Between the Aquarius and the flymaster, feels very nice in the hand!
but its a little too sharp around the edges outta the package i hope once it breaks in they will get flat.

Smoothness: 8/10

Like most 4A yoyos it has some vibration

Play:10/10!!!

AHHMAAHHGAHHHD!!!!
This thing is soooooo awesome!
it has soo much throwback and so you can throw it as hard as you want and it doesnt go shooting out like flymasters!
It can be really unresponsive when you want it too and responsive enough to do every regen i know!
it glides through my really big john narum style tricks offstring and can still do my smaller "Tech" tricks really smoothly.
The boingys are suppa butta with this and its really fast!

Grinds: 6/10

its rubber, it cant really grind that well.
but can still make it up my arm

Response:7/10


^^^ The side without the caps
Im not really sure what to consider it, some weird rubbery thingy, but it works pretty well

Conclusion:
This is one heck of a yoyo!
i think im eventually gonna get a couple more, im really attached to aqua and so im gonna stick to them,
 but i will definately be using these a lot!
For the price of it its defintaly worth somthing every offstring player should get!

you know, what i would do to enhance the response on this yo-yo is pop the rubber rings out from the inside. then stick them in on the other side, where you removed the caps from. after the holes are plugged, fill the deep recess with flowable silicone for an awesome result!. i did this to my shinwoo techno and it made a HUGE difference!

I got this yoyo a few months ago and it is perfectly awesome right out of the package.  It's tasted pavemnet dozens of times since then and it takes the abuse like a champ.

When I got it, it WAS the only 4A yoyo I liked to play exactly as it came out of the package (I never liked Aquas to begin with).  It was until of course the Hyabusa came out.  Now I'm torn when I go to play 4A, I don't even know which yoyo to grab anymore.

you know, what i would do to enhance the response on this yo-yo is pop the rubber rings out from the inside. then stick them in on the other side, where you removed the caps from. after the holes are plugged, fill the deep recess with flowable silicone for an awesome result!. i did this to my shinwoo techno and it made a HUGE difference!

There's no need for any of that with this yoyo, it plays perfectly stock.

My friend(zan-navi on this forum) had a Shinwoo Griffin Wing then one day the rings broke off. So he sent it back to the "guy" and they sent him a new one. A few days ago at a meet in this area, we were using it and all of a sudden it had stopped bouncing. Their appeared to be a bigger gap where the plastic meets the rubber.


But before it stopped bouncing i have to admit this is an awesome OS yoyo. It bounced very well and played so nice before it broke.


Just thought you guys might want to know this.

just wondering, how's the axle on this yoyo? I have problems with Aquarius  because they easily loose thread.

do you think this yoyo could last long like an Aquarius? thanks
