ILYY---- NOCTU
« on: June 12, 2009, 10:17:31 AM »

HELLO ,

I did have great troubles to find money  to get a noctu , i did have problem with my yoyonation acount, so finally i got one and here is my review and impressions .(i am french so i should make mistakes ^^)


      First,  everybody know that the noctu has a particular shape ,  (batman ! yeah ) , quite sharp , but really funny! in fact it's particular to hold but it doesn't affect the string or your hands , (off course if you got a knot it can hurt lol) . It is really good looking with a deep dark blue that i really love .


       I could also say that this shape  is creating a good mass repartition with a part of the weight far frome the axle . I don't know if it really affect the yo but finally their is no wooble , it's really stable and  smooth playing .

When i first throwed i was impressed by the spining time ! even if it isn't incredible i can perform my combos and create new ones easily !

Then if i talk about dimensions i could say that it is normal... small enought to chopstick , be fast and do" spaghetti" trix !  But slacks are also easy to do !


         The gap is wide ! really ! it's crazy and make it less responsive . and as i like wide gaps i think it's cool to play smooth!

       The response is now well known : sILYYcone ..... just cool my favorite response system tight binds and unresponsive yoyo .


        But it isn't perfect in fact the wide gap make bind harder to do , so fuinny binds i did find didn't worked ... so i think that adding a response system that will make the yo a litle bit more responsiv could make it better. (but their is no problem with the regular sILYYcon it's just to explain mods that could be done).
       
          Grinds are also a litle problem.. Thumb grinds are as good as any metal yoyo today just great !  i don't have problems to arm grind but finger grinds are more difficult because of the shape ! but i don't care .. i don't love grinds !
         

I also wanna precise that i added a KK and spin time just got up just as  playability !

So i think that this yo just rocks ! it's my best player ! good looking and good playing what else could i say ! faster than my spyder , as stable as a pyro .... i really love it and i can't wait to get a new ILYY !

But i would be happy if they used small bearing because i think it would make it spin longer!

So i am just waiting for a small bearing  and 4mm gap ILYY   to spend my last bucks!!!!!!! ^^

Good work ILYY but you already know it since my mail lol

Just tell me if anybody want pics but i'm tired tonight lol and their are many pics on the forum!

See ya !!                                                         SNAKE ( ILYY fan) Afro

thank you ! i think you will have difficultes to get one if nobody sells his one to you because ILYY don't have any noctu left  Happy tears but hold on there is person (poor them) who doesn't like the noctu so you could get one lol

Thank you 2 for the comment of my vid .. in fact i am the only yoer on the island where i live so i have to pratice alone and i don't master really fast but i try to catch my style!

And what about you .. did you make vids???

AHAH if you want a noctu i think you can get another ILYY  , they will make more yoyos in the futur and even if it isn't noctu  other yo have aproximativly the same look (gap diameter etc! )

 I think E1NS wasabi and the other are just as cool ..  today i think i would get a liopleurodon if i had money !
