New YJ 2x2! YJ YuPo!

bump
does anyone fast have the yupo? I (think I) tried one recently and its actually quite good. It isn't scratchy/papery like the tangpo. Its very smooth and actually quite fast and fluid. It moves almost as well as my dayan. Most of the reviews on youtube are bad, but i think there were a bunch of defective cubes made early on. This unboxing by lazermonkey is similar to my impressions of it.

Obviously I'm not fast, but all the people who have tried my YuPo (most of whom are a lot faster than me) seem to like it.
 
I certainly am not what anyone would call fast, but I did pick up a YuPo to keep in my office for just a few dollars. Out of the box it left quite a bit to be desired, as it was tensioned way too tight, and underwent catching a great deal. Upon disassembling it I discovered a fairly long strip of flash attached to the core, which was the cause of the catching. (I read elsewhere, though I can't remember where, that this is fairly common with this cube and others.) After removing the flash with a cuticle scissors, reassembling the puzzle, and tensioning it to a reasonable degree, it is now quite satisfactory. But it cannot compare to my WitTwo v1, at least in terms of feel.

Hope this helps at least a little!
