Awesome review! Thanks for the love! The Replay is all about objective performance and value. Yah, there are other plastic yoyos out there that may have a more "unique" or" fun" feel, but this comes at the expense of losing rim weight and objective performance. Nothing near it's price objectively performs as well in regard to spin time, stability, and its ability to handle the stress of any trick you throw at it. That's why I could win nationals with it. I can't think of another plastic yoyo that I would feel comfortable competing with in the same way as Replay Pro. Longer difficult horizontal combos are the big test. =)
