FHZ is good for 5A but Protostar seems to spin a bit better. Like I get this feeling that all I need to do is do tricks without caring anything about the spin going out. That’s why I call it “spins forever”.

FHZ is great too, as it’s supposed to do 5A but Protostar can have the same floatness.

I highly suggest a pair of Shinwoo Techno 2s. They are only $10. They are easily customizable, due to Shinwoo’s rubber response. I actually got a pair for 3A myself and they are great. 🙂 Kicksides or FHZ’s would also be great choices. Protostars would be good, but IMO when starting out its easier having two responsive yoyo or 1 responsive and 1 unresponsive compared to both being unresponsive.

Oh yeah, he’s right. Both being responsive is great. Even in worlds, they use 1 responsive and 1 unresponsive. 1slave25, your choice.
