Just curious. Why not a kickside? If you are going to reshape it then you can get rid of the starburst and add a silicone groove. Seems a shape to not use the best YYJ made.
i would say Lyn Fury becouse it already has the grooves for silicon;)
and as an owner of one piece of Lyn Fury i would say that it plays just amazing and it looks better than speedmaker or the kickside.
but this is just my personal opinion ;D
The Speedmaker takes some skill to handle though, it tends to tilt and it requires a good throw to deliver it’s full potential.
The Kickside is solid, and so is the Lyn Fury. I’d get a Lyn Fury since it really welcomes silicone. If you like the lightweight then go for a Speedmaker.
He said he might get a FHZ, not from YYJ. He also asked what I think. And I think solely sticking to YYJ isn’t a good idea. YYJ is an AMAZING company, but there are many other cheap yoyos you can mod. Also, the bearing in it is worth almost as much as the yoyo, so its a good deal.
