Really can’t decide between these three, what do y’all recommend?

The boy is a great playing throw. I would pick that one.

Super hard to compare them they are all very different from each other.

Can you elaborate? I’m curious how so
Well daredevil is a slightly undersized d bearing has lots of rim weight , boy has a decent amount of center weight , and the Akita is meant to be a big and powerful bi metal .
Can you elaborate on what you are looking for or what you’re preferences are ? The boy in my opinion is more of a fun yo-yo. The Akita is a competition style yo-yo designed for catching tricky horizontal and zoning combos . The daredevil I would say is maybe somewhere in between.

I have two out of the three and they are among my top 10 easy (Daredevil and Akita). Couldn’t go wrong with either - just a matter of personal preferences.
It is a diverse group. They are different shapes and sizes, and one is a bimetal while another is a D bearing throw.

Great question.
Really just having fun not playing comp. Favorite throws right now are the Shutter and Arcade, looking to try a CLYW and really can’t figure out which of the two are “better” as the general consensus is both are great
It probably doesn’t matter too much which you get now. Like most of us, you’ll probably end up wanting them all after you have a few. All!

Fair enough haha
Look at your trickset or things you want to learn, or just play more and it’ll be easier to decide what you want.
If you like playing faster and doing dense tech you’ll probably like the Boy more. If you like doing more hooks/whips or just want a wider catch zone, then the Akita will be the better choice.
I can’t speak to the Daredevil but it’s already going to be pretty different from the others since it has a different bearing size.
A lot of people seem to buy a bunch of yoyos to try and figure out their preferences when they’re starting out. But in my experience your preferences are greatly formed by your trickset and what you want to learn or explore. So just playing more will give you an idea of what you want out of future yoyos.

My vote would be for the Akita or daredevil if you are looking for stability. The boy has a decent amount of center weight which gives it a very nice smooth feel but it does hinder stability a bit .
I think all three are great YoYos but it depends on what you value lost from play .
