The yyf horizon is pretty good. Really stable and pretty long spin times. Also it’s great if you’re ever interested in learning horizontal tricks. ---

If you don’t mind spending a few bucks more, I actually recommend trying this out: > **[Eternal Throw](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/eternal-throw)** > > Eternal Throw is a company that began on the road home from the National Yo-Yo Contest in 2011. Chad Sage and Free Hinton stared to reminisce about how they got involved in the local community and yo-yo community as a whole. Both of them... Really stable and long spins…and long finger spins if you want to get into that. This has actually been one of my go-to throws for learning a new trick due to its long spin and forgiving nature. And if finger grinds are your thing, this thing is a monster grinder. ---
