From your other post, I gather that you want to start right in with binding? From what I hear, it might be hard to beat this for $8: [https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/yoyojam/products/yyj-surge-yoyo?variant=18872791812](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/yoyojam/products/yyj-surge-yoyo?variant=18872791812) This is fun and big. It has an adjustable gap, so you could always crank it in if you get frustrated: [https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/yoyojam/products/yyj-big-ben-yoyo?variant=18870337028](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/yoyojam/products/yyj-big-ben-yoyo?variant=18870337028) ---

The N8 is undersized so I’d recommend one of the two others as more typical sized. ---

You dont need a glove, Get extra strings instead. Unless it all has to come together, that would be fine to get started, but you likely wont need a glove (unless you live in a _very_ humid environment.) ---

Some string will last a couple hours of play before it starts to frizz out. some “good” strings can last WAY longer. Avoid cotton, it likes to break. Polyester is good to start. I like Nylon personally, but that may be an aquired taste to explore later on down the line. ---

Those are polyester but a couple hours?? You mean I have to change the string every day almost?? [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/a-good-14-yoyo/296503.md?page=2)
