I’m looking into buying a freehand yoyo. What do you freehanders out there think about Duncan Freehand Zeros. Or Duncan’s new Freehand Metal Zero? OR should I go an entire new direction and get somthing else? Please leave me your input on the Zero, Metal Zero, or leave me with a new idea?

To me, they play about the same. I’ve thrown a couple of Metal Zeros, but I’ve never bothered to buy one. I do have several FHZs, though. Why pay more than twice as much, if it plays the same? I have to wonder what mods were done to the one Tiki threw, that was that much better that a plastic FHZ.

Have Fun,

I like my Axiom. If you are looking for something a little cheaper, then a good yoyo in my opinion would be an X-Convivt, or cheaper would by a Legacy, or lynfury

Any 1a yoyo would work. Go with any smaller and long spinning yoyos, like a Lyn Fury, or an X-Convict.

Have Fun Throwing,

The only reason that I don’t use my Dark Magic for 5A is because it is kind of heavy, but it still works really well.
