How long a yoyo sleeps all depends on your throw. With that said I don’t think you will go wrong owning either of these yoyo’s. I have both and love them the same but for different reasons. ---

i have a pretty good throw and my dm still does’t spin that long… but if i get a protostar im pretty much getting a different shape and features but the same size yoyo, with the atmosphere im getting a smaller yoyo but i have no idea how much better the spintime is… sorry if im being ignorant ---

> [@Aldo8250](#): > > sorry if im being ignorant You are. But that’s okay. Spin time is irrelevant, because it is entirely dependent on your throw. It has very little to do with the yoyo. Every ball bearing yoyo out there has the capability to spin longer than you could ever possibly need. ---
