Recently got my fingerspins consistent and I’m in love. I havent loved a trick this much since the skin the … tricks. So I’m looking for a fun little yoyo that is awesome for them and will give me some pretty long fingerspins but also be decent at 1a as well. I was looking at the Mo-vitation but it’s sold out… soooo… what else… I’m not going to set a price range because I want to explore my options but I’m not gonna pay like $250 for it
The best yoyo for it that Ive tried is the KLR, so something better… Ive heard the Arctic Circle is a good one. Thoughts?
I can do it on pretty much all of my metal throws, but some fingerspin better and/or longer than others.
And Jesse, isn’t the skywalker like REALLY expensive nowadays? Or am I thinking of something else… and besides the mo-vitation, the capsule 2 looks promising, Krown too.
Not super expensive. You could get one in really good condition for less then 100 for sure. But it’s really really good at fingerspins. Probably the best in my collection for fingerspins.
Oh- forgot an amazing throw for fingerspins- the Werrd Tre!
best yoyo for me is the Rockefeller, hot,and irony jp. the theory,quest with caps and xlr8 are made for it. the shutter, new superstar, and new genesis also get honorable mention.andthing with a flat face really
The Chief and BvMr2 have the protruding hub. The AC has a convex hub, which isn’t as friendly for fingerspins. I think that’s what you meant and I do agree with you.
As far as for longer spins, you need something flat or concave. There’s so many good shapes for this trick these days that I think we’re going to see fewer yoyos with a central hub for the axle while this trend matures and plays itself through. Finger spins are here to stay.
Just going to reiterate what studio said. Anything that has a flat or concave cup will do fine. You could fingerspin on any yoyo, it just won’t spin as long.
However fingerspins on a Capless are a little tougher to control. You could land it on there but then it just starts to spin around your finger instead of on your finger. So something where the inner most cut is small-ish. If that makes any sense what so ever. If not I’ll try to make a video or something.
I would say Mo-vitation as the absolute first. That YoYo was designed for them. That’s kind of Ethan’s special are finger spins. His first freestyle on C3, I believe it was his eyyc but that doesn’t sound right, was entirely finger spins practically. Check it out.
