I have a YYF Velocity right now and am trying to decide what my next yo-yo should be. I can bind easily and like a a yo-yo that will ONLY come up by binding. ---

There are many great ones in your price range, but the YYF Shutter is a great choice. It spins FOREVER, is very very stable, and only comes up with a bind (meaning it is unresponsive.) ---

I do not have one, but, from all that I have read Shutter is the way to go. ---

Started out with a velocity as well. 🙂 I would go for CZM8 or Shutter because you can get a centertrac with them. ---

The Shutter is awesome! Get one with a center track in it and you’ll be set! ---

You could also take a look at the N12 and XLR8 Personally I’d choose between level 6 or shutter if I wanted a metal yoyo and choose between the rally and addiction if I wanted plastic. If I wanted the best deal I’d probly pick up an N12. ---

> [@DrAwesome](#): > > Rally. 'Tis magniflourious. Smooth, stable just a beautiful all around player. Totally agree here. The OD rally is by far one of the best, if not, the best throw under 50. It plays magnificently. It’s really worth checking out. ---

Really leaning towards the Rally… I can’t find any real complaints on it and it seems like it would be pretty nice for thumb grinds and finger spins. Anyone know a rough estimate of spin time? Or if a certain edition is better than another? ---

Shutter is the way to go. Don’t hesitate. Unless you really enjoy the colors on a different throw more than the available Shutter colors. The Shutter is amazing. ---

I know the Rally is usa made, what about the Shutter? Also is one less “grippy”? I hate it when I try to do grinds and tricks like rewind and my Velocity grabs the string and flys back to my hand. ---

> [@Steven](#): > > I know the Rally is usa made, what about the Shutter? Also is one less “grippy”? I hate it when I try to do grinds and tricks like rewind and my Velocity grabs the string and flys back to my hand. Both rally and shutter are hands down better than a velocity, as good as the velocity is. I’m inclined to say that neither is really grippy… They’re both really great. ---

I hate it when I try to do grinds and tricks like rewind and my Velocity grabs the string and flys back to my hand. Shutter is machined in china I believe but I think everything else like the ano, lasering, packaging, and testing is done here in the USA but I’m not 100% sure. Normally the first run of any yyf throw is the USA made edition and they do that until they’ve perfected the throw and then they have china make it. ---

Cool thanks for the help all. I’m going to wait and see what they decide for the next color of the rally and get whichever yoyo (shutter or rally) looks cooler. Whichever one I get i’ll make sure to do a review. Edit: I got the Rally, clear with black rims. So nice. 😃
