Hey guys, I’m new here! I’m looking for a yoyo around the same or higher quality that I can afford (under $70) and since the DV888 and the Velocity are the only two yoyos I have experience with, I don’t really have much to go off of. The only real requirement is that the new yoyo is good with [thumb] grinds. Any and all suggestions are welcome! So far I have been recommended the Werrd 86400, Rally (i’m not too interested in) and I’m looking at the Shutter. I’m having a little trouble justifying buying the Werrd though since I question if I’m really “good enough” to be worthy of it. Thoughts? Also I’m still open to ANY suggestions!! ---

The shutter would be my choice. It plays along side yoyos twice the price. I would also have a look at the werrd minute if you enjoy the size of your current throws and want to stay with something familiar. ---

If you can bind well, you’re “worthy” of anything you want to be. The Werrd Minute looks like a perfect fit for you in price and grind ability. It has a blasted finish and a slight lip on the IGR which should make thumb grinds a breeze. Blasted Shutters are coming out soon, but the IGR is flat like the DV888, so in terms of what you want to be doing I wouldn’t consider it an upgrade, especially if it isn’t blasted. ---

If you can bind and you can afford it: It’s fine. Get whatever you want. Your choices are all great. You’re worth it. ---

You can’t beat the 86400 for what you get ---

Just get the shutter and put the CT from your dv888 in it. You will most definetely love it. ---

That 86400 is legit. I have a Minute and it’s great, too. Binds are a bit grabby with the stock pads.
