What is the best competition yoyo under $55? It has to have all the attributes a competition throw needs. ---

> [@Cannon](#): > > This is just as subjective. It depends on how you plan to compete: Zach Gormley, Suzuki style or somewhere in between? It is subjective, but the point was to be more specific about their particular subjective needs. Rather than, “a good yoyo” explaining what they felt made a good yoyo (still subjective) would allow others to help. Just as explaining what that person feels is a competition yoyo, although still subjective, would be helpful beyond just “good”. ---

I didn’t exactly read all of the comments previously so I thought you started the thread and was asking… Sorry for the confusion!!! 😃 My point still stands though. How do you want to competitively play? Speed, slow tech, or what? ---

+1 for A good yoyo. Just about every yoyo avaliable is a good yoyo, so it’s not as subjective as it seems. ---

Shutter for $55 and under, Shu-ta is better though, but it’s $65.
