Have you ever wondered...?

Why is it called a Grind Machine if it isn't that great at grinding?

It's the best plastic for grinding, and it's "based" on the shape of the Grind Machine yo-yos.

Quote from: Elephark
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.

The surface makes it feel good with grinds but I don't think it's the "best." I think YYJs grind better, actually.. Then again, most YYJ plastics I've tried have that sort of vibe.

That's just it, though...none of the Grind Machine yoyos really have anything in common, other than being yoyos made by YYF. And it makes it that much more confusing when someone casually refers to a Grind Machine...because he could be talking about any of three yoyos that are very different from each other—ignoring that he might instead be mistakenly talking about a Grind Monster, Grind Master, or either of the Grind Mutants—which is far from unheard-of.

I was throwing my FHZ at yoyo school once 1A style. A kid came over and asked me what yoyo it was. I told him it was a Freehand Zero and he said it couldnt be because it did not have a counterweight tied to it lol

freehand and 1A is basically the same concept but with cw.
every 1A yoyo can be used for 5A.
every 2A yoyo can't be used for 1A
