I agree totally with Goldfinger Airbrush. This is the second worst playing yo-yo I have ever bought in 40 years and I own scores and scores of them. THE worst was a Duncan Transaxtion that wasn’t even worth collecting. (I screamed, pulled my hair, beat my head against a wall, and then pulverized that crapper with a sledge hammer after about 1 hour of totally frustrating ownership.) The Pocket Rocket however IS worth collecting, just not PLAYING. It absolutely will not respond – AT ALL. It just falls to the end of the string and bounces around like a rock without even rotating. It doesn’t matter how many friction stickers you stack on it or how tightly you wind it either. I stacked 3 friction stickers on top of each other on both sides and it did improve, but not nearly enough to make it playable. You just can’t bind it enough to make it spin or respond. It probably would be great for string tricks if you clamped it in a drill first to get it spinning. Honestly, I am flabergasted to see all these people raving about how much they love their Pocket Rocket and how well it plays. It is a heavy, nice, expensive-looking little yo-yo though and that is what saved mine from certain destruction. You probably can’t buy a nicer paper weight anywhere.

I have T.K.P.R. 128 and its a great machine with very good stringplay; In just a few minutes I was throwing braintwisters like no ones business. Buy all the Tom Kuhn you can before its all gone.
