I see that you have a Legacy, and it’s perfectly fine for 5a, I love it for 5a.
But if you’re really determined on buying a new one, try a Lyn Fury, Die Nasty, or PGM, they’re all great 5a yo-yos.

Die Nasty, FHZ (recessed), flying squirrel, and a gung fu if you can find it. 😛

Any kind of Freehand will be great (and your Legacy)
A Freehand Zero would be best because they are common and easy to mod or have modded when you get better.

kickside’s pwn as 5a. But your legacy should be fine, no, it is fine.

Yes, the Kickside is fine. And so are most 1A yoyos. Just throw a CW on it. A good, cheap 5A throw would be a PGM.
