The Avalanche is pretty good but a bit more orthodox (albeit well done) in design. The only other CLYW I own are the Gnarwhal which is undersized and the Cliff which is outside of your budget. If you can afford the extra dosh, the Cliff is my favourite of the CLYW range.
Of all the clyw Yoyos I have thrown (marmot, chief, peak avalanche, gnarwal, bear vs man) I gotta say that the avalanche is one of the best Yoyos on the market. If you don’t like anything about it, consider an arctic circle or a chief
I second this, since i own both the CODE2 and the AC. The AC seems to be more on the solid side, while it’s the floaty side for CODE2, but both have much similarities in the feel and also the shape, too
