So i want to buy an all-round yoyo under 50$ with good spin time, solid feeling and no to big to make the tech intricate tricks hard to do. It is because i want a yoyo that spin long enough to have me learn and work on new trick. I am thinking of the yyf paolista but i still wanna make sure are there any better choices. ---

Shutter and horizon are good and inexpensive yoyos. ---

I would definitely say Horizon. I regretted buying the Shutter but I will want to buy more horizons ---

I would honestly say the YYF Shutter. The Horizon is good but in my experience it is a little less stable and hence has shorter spin times. I started with a Shutter and have since bought another. Hope this helps! ---

Thanks for all of your advices, but I have already had the horizon and i don’t like its shape very much. It is also too big for me. Maybe i will chose the shutter but there is one last thing i wanna no: Can the shutter play 3a and 5a? ---

If you’re looking for a good yoyo that also plays 3a and 5a go for the ■■■■■■■■■■ canon. ---

The horizon is big. Nothing.wrong with that, just it might move a little tricky for tech if you have small hands. If you are looking for a good 1a/5a yoyo, the Duncan origami might be good. It looks somewhat like a shutter, and, from my limited experience, plays like one to some extent. The canon would also be a great option, but if you are looking for a super powerful throw for learning tricks, the yoyofactory paolista or yoyofactory czechpoint have more mass on the rims then the shutter or origami. ---
