I decided to take a little bit of a different approach while reviewing the Pistolero. Instead of the usual textual review, I took nine photos that show you different perspectives on the yoyo, reviewing it along the way. Enjoy! http://flickr.com/photos/20969541@N05/sets/72157612633038829/(Click on the big photo to begin!)

That was a really good idea for a review and it was a good review
But how does it grind?

Its ok. The laser engravings sort reveal a raw surface, so they're not totally super. Matador and thumb grinds are great though.

A one minute search yileded this: Pistolero: Weight: 64 grams (without tether) Dimensions: 52mm (diameter) x 42mm (width) Gap Width: 3.8mm Spyder Weight: 64.20 grams Width (mm) 41.50 Diameter (mm) 49.53 Gap Width (mm) 3.31 The one Addict I looked up was aroun 3.24 in width. I have both the Pistolero and a STAR (Spyder) and they are two different beasts. I enjoy them both quite a bit. RIDE

The Pistolero has been SPYY’s most involved and largest investment to date… A yoyo with a $125 selling price written all over it. I’ve decided to uphold my standards and maintain SPYY’s commitment to precision and exceptional value, so the Beta Release will be sold direct to customers at a reduced price. I give my apologies to stores that have shown interest in this yoyo - I promise that the next run will be nothing less than a retail success!

Yeah, I love this yoyo. It's very smooth. Steve must have some really high standards to say these were beta runs. Very little vib. I would have payed $125 for it. Awesome deal. A must if you have $78 laying around.

Popdada, I believe Bigo6o was commenting on the fact that you used the possessive "their" instead of the contraction "they're", not the fact that you were stating false claims  .
