I would really like to get into 4A yoyos but I don’t know what yoyos are good for 4A and what extra items I will need. So my question is what should I get to start 4A and what are some tips for 4A. Thanks ---

As of lately the yyf flight has been a very popular 4a yoyo. It is cheap ($25) and plays very well. You don’t need much of anything else. Try learning in a spacious place so you don’t break anything. Ummmm… Have fun! ---

Hmm not sure if I would use fat kitty sure you can but the flight has a tight gap so it may cause snags ---

The YYF Flight is an amazing offstring yoyo. Only tip I could give you is, take your time. Practice over something soft, like carpet or grass. Don’t get to frustrated with it in the beginning. Really perfect your forward toss and catch, and move on from there. 4A is extremely fun, but also to me a bit frustrating. That’s my tips to you. Really hope you have fun with it.
