This is a yo-yo I’m very interested in right now.
If anyone has one, can you tell me what it is like to use?
If anyone has a yyr bae as well, I’d like to compare it to it.
I like yyr’s bae, and the last time I was looking in a store I found a yoyo with a similar shape. It was the empathy soutuside.
I wanted to get it because the diameter and width are very similar.
Sorry for my bad English.

I have played both and both are great choices!! - It really is subjective like most things but depends on what you like! 🙂
I absolutely love the [Southside](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/products/southside-yoyo-by-empathy?_pos=1&_sid=5f4142dca&_ss=r&variant=43138066710718), and think it is a VERY great choice for competition play. I think if I were to choose, I would go with the [Southside](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/products/southside-yoyo-by-empathy?_pos=1&_sid=5f4142dca&_ss=r&variant=43138066710718) over the [Bae](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/products/bae-yoyo-by-yoyorecreation?variant=42359765270718), only because it is a little wider, which makes it easier to hit strings in performing bigger types of tricks/moves.
I do love the [Bae](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/products/bae-yoyo-by-yoyorecreation?variant=42359765270718) as well though, and since it is a tiny bit slimmer, it is a little easier to manuver through a more dense tech combo.
So overall it depends on what tricks you are doing. If you like flashier bigger tricks like eli hops, or doing moves with a bigger motion and landing it on the string, I would pick [Southside](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/products/southside-yoyo-by-empathy?_pos=1&_sid=5f4142dca&_ss=r&variant=43138066710718)!
For more dense combos and intricate string maneuvers, I would go with the [YYR Bae](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/products/bae-yoyo-by-yoyorecreation?variant=42359765270718)! 🙂
Hope this helps!
