The Marco was Yoyojoe’s preferred comp throw for some time. ---

It was until he got the bind and then he liked it better. His Marco was his competition throw for quite some time, probably at least 2 years I believe. ---

the Marco is good but a tad bit on the heavy side for me, I have not played with this yoyo yet but I would pick the motive from @sfyoyos, here’s Connor using the motive [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/6/d/86df33cceedf0c69913dcdb3f6f2ceb877a63c82.jpeg " - YouTube") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Avs2JVjX-vM) ---

That’s a super good point, but availability is also important to take into account. In my experience, many people are looking for a motive but not many are willing to sell. ---

I don’t have many v shapes but the one that is on my “never gonna get rid of it” list is the Yoyobrothers Voyage. Can’t say I’ve tried a better bimetal myself. Oh to try every bimetal though… ---

The yotricks Oracle is my go-to 1a comp throw. Such long spin times and unbelievable stability make it a great choice for both horizontal play and vertical tricks. It’s strength lies in the gap width. Hitting to many strings during tech? Not a problem. Gap too wide to bind? Not a problem. It has an all around appeal to a yoyoer, because of its comfortable shape and retro design. Msrp is like 50 cents or whatever.
