I mainly got the Futura because of the price drop, but now it's among my favorite monometals. So much about it is a surprise; it's almost like playing a bimetal. It easily has the longest spin time of all my monos, not to mention being the most stable. It has a kind of heft in the hand, almost chunky, but once you throw it everything changes.

The Futura plays oddly light. It's not floaty, but it's fast and easy to move around. It's a strange feeling that makes it especially fun. The finish is perfect -actually perfect- and the anodizing is exquisite. I got mine in Wine Red and have gotten several comments about how nice it looks.

Yoyorecreation did an amazing job with this yoyo. I have more than a few expensive, competition focused bimetals, and the Futura outplays most of them. It's so good that I'm waiting for a couple of the other colors to restock.

This thing spins the fastest out of all my throws, and spins for 8 mins, the shape makes landing very pleasurable. It's the perfect throw except for a tad of bite when doing my style of tricks, It enjoys surprise attacks and demands only experts of throwers ;)
