To those of you who recommended the Freehand One…THANK YOU - IT IS AMAZING!!!
For me, and what little I know about yo-yoing, it is far superior to the Whip and the Shooting Star (with responsive bearing). It is so smooth when it’s sleeping and comes back to my hand exactly when I’m expecting it to. The Whip sometimes comes back a little earlier than I’m expecting. The Shooting Star is nowhere near as smooth while sleeping (at least with the responsive bearing) as the FHO and for having a responsive bearing in it, it plays pretty unresponsive.
Anyway, just wanted to say I appreciate you all suggesting the Freehand One!!!
