So I’m getting a yoyo for my b-day and I cant decide which one to pick, the 888 or skyline.
Preferences from Samad’s list:
1.I like small yoyos like the M1
2.I prefer a yoyo that has flat rims but round works too
3.I like a silicone response yoyo
4.I will maintain it but I might change the bearing
5.COLOR MATTERS A LOT. I want the yoyo that has the most nicest look.
6.I only do 1A tricks
7.My price range is up to $150
8.My skill level is advanced

Based on your preferences you could probaly go either way so ill toss in my 2 cents on the matter:
SKYLINE 😃

I don’t think the Skyline will work for you at all.
The shape is far from what you want. The closest thing to what you want is the 888.

Yeah, but we are trying to find a yoyo to fit his preferences, not to just find a yoyo.
