This is a nice all around yoyo. The only drawback is that it’s too dang hard to loop with. But it will sleep longer than most of my other yoyos, so it can do all the most complex tricks. It is pretty easy to land on the string too. To get it to work right you have to lube it about every 2 days or else it will scream for lube and won’t return. I would recommend this one to anyone who wants a nice sleeper, or just add it to a collection.

First, my Hyperwarp is great, all around. But if you want to make it a better looper… All you need to do is take a No Jive 3-in-1 wooden axle and sand the sides down to make it the same width as the bearing and two side spacers in your Hyperwarp. (sometimes you’ll have to drill the axle whole out just a BIT, but …some have just fit and some needed mod, it’s weird.) Makes for a great looper. Have fun.

I love this yo-yo! The Hyperwarp is kind of heavy, but it returns very well. It’s a good looper, and it sleeps so good you could do the most advanced tricks.

The Yomega Hyperwarp is a very good low-priced bearing yo-yo. It sleeps a long time, enough for the most advanced string tricks, and is smooth on the string, though not as smooth as a TBB. It can be hard to wake up after a long sleeper, but some Vaseline on the axle can help that. It is a very good yo-yo at a great price.

THIS YOYO ROCKS!!!!! I think it is as good as some aluminum yoyos. It is a great sleeper and is pretty easy to catch on the Trapeze and it is GREAT for string tricks. I have done the Trick “BARREL ROLLS” and I did the “ROLLS” part about 7 times!!!!!!! I also did 36 loops with this yoyo so it’s not shabby in that department. ALL AROUND THIS IS A GREAT YOYO!!!!!!!!!! I SUGGEST THAT EVERYONE WHO IS SERIOUS ABOUT GETTING GOOD AT YOING SHOULD GET ONE. All you ever hear from YOMEGA is about the RAIDER OR THE RB2 or the METALLIC MISSILE and don’t get me wrong those are GREAT yoyos I have a Raider and a RB2 and they are great but move over CUZ HERE COMES THE HYPERWARP!

This is a sweet yo-yo. I had troubles with my Raider since it seemed to be unresponsive at times and it wasn’t too smooth, but the HyperWarp is a sweet yo-yo. It’s a great looper, it’s pretty smooth on the string, and it’s *gasp* under $20! For those who can’t get their hands on a Ninja or Coral Snake due to lack of money, pick this one up. This is one of my favorite yo-yos to just throw around for a while. It’s fairly heavy for a plastic yo-yo, so looping is a little hard with it at times. All in all, this is a great yo-yo for the money, I highly recommend it!

Love it, love it, love it. It loops well (but use a band aid to protect your finger, because it is heavy). String tricks are not too hard to perform even though it is a modified shape because the set string gap is plenty wide enough to catch with. It performs smoothly on string tricks and can loop with the best of them. It also sleeps as deeply as my Uncle Doug, but is MUCH easier to wake up. Haven’t you heard enough yet? Get one!!

In my opinion, the Yomega Hyperwarp is the best non butterfly yoyo ever made. It has a really nice weight, just about as heavy as the A-line Cherry Bomb with the team Losi weights put in. The great weight does wonders for sleep times, you just got to see these babies spin! If youÕre skilled with yoyos, running out of spin time will never be an issue with the Hyperwarp. Some people may want the gap larger then it is. I would not be one of these people. I think this yo plays awesome just how it is, but if the gap does bother you, you can always go to the hardware store and get a couple shims to put behind the spacers. From the gap, to the shape, this yoyo is just awesome. The shape also makes it a super looper! I think the Hyperwarp is one of the coolest looking yoyos ever made. The logo looks like something out of the 50Õs! Also you get two great color choices. Blue with a silver sticker (my personal favorite), and black with a gold sticker. The Hyperwarp is one of those yoyos that feel so great to play with. When you throw it, it just has that really nice ÒcrispÓ feeling. One problem with this yoyo is that it has a very annoying tendancy to want to come unscrewed. IÕve not found a way of remedying this problem, other then just making sure it stays tight while you play. So in conclusion, if you want a yoyo that loops very well, plays great on string, and looks awesome, this yoyo is for you. It has its minor problems, but for me, theyÕre not big enough to make me stop playing with it.

This yo is a good yo straight out the pack I think it is hard to land on the string because the narrow gap. But when you do it is a nice spinner on the string but not as good as a Gade or a tigershark when modded. It can loop nice to, so this yo is an all around yo. I keep it in my bag all the time and it is made out of a strange hard self-healing plastic. What I mean is it repairs if you scratch it so that is good for beginners bb/c they will scratch it hit it on the ground. A nice yoyo at a good price.

all i can say about the hyperwarp is that IT ROCKS!!!!!!!!! is has to be one of the VERY BEST yoyos out there. it does seem a bit heavy at first but you get used to it. It is also extremely easy to catch on the string even though it is a modified design. overall this is one awesome yoyo.

This yo-yo is a great yo-yo for a non butterfly. To me, it is very hard to catch on the string but that may only be because I’m not that great at yo-yoing. It’s a bit heavy but the weight makes it sleep for a long time. I can sleep it for 1 min. with regular string and still get it to return. It’s pretty responsive but it not not smooth on the string at all. It slows down so fast, I can only do an average of 2 barrel rolls b4 it stops spinning. This yo-yo is not good for string play. It snags very easily even with one regular (not slick 6) string. Do not even think about putting two strings in there. The good thing about this yo-yo is that it sleeps long and is relatively inexpensive. However, there are much betta yo-yo such as the gade or the tbb that costs just the same.

I have a hyper warp yoyo and I really enjoy using it. I have only used Yomegas since I got really serious about yoyoing and they’re great. The hyperwarp is the my best performer. It sleeps a long time but is sometimes hard to return. It more than makes up for it. It’s a great yoyo for a great price.

The hyperwarp is a pretty good yo-yo, but not the best. I disagree with some of you since the hyperwarp can handle a few strings in the gap. I can pull off stuff like cold fusion with this yo but I don’t usually use it. It has removable caps (you can use a screwdriver to unscrew the screws, but you need to push the caps REALLY hard to get them out), but the need for more weight really isn’t needed. It isn’t a great looper, but I don’t care. (I don’t loop). If you want an okay yo-yo, get this one, although for the same price I’d go for the Hyperwarp wing.
