2 PSG’s. 2 Asteroids, 2 Protostars, 2 Northstars. After that, the price jumps up because the individual prices start too high. Heck, 2 Starbrights would work fine. ---

I would probably pick two northstars. I find them to be a bit more stable than a protostar, yeat still very good yoyos. Also this stability comes from the 2 extra grams. This is a great yoyo, in fact I have owned a total of five and currently own 2. They are just a bit fragile, not as in hitting the ground, but unscrewing it mostly. I find them to not screw together too well. So if I get a bearing not I always(and you should too) try to use my fingers or a safety pin to get it out. If you are interested in this here is where to buy it to save you some work!

Two PSG’s or two Asteroids. Two very great, cheap throws. If you like full-size, get the Asteroid because it is a little bit bigger than the PSG. ---
