I’m on advanced tricks. i would go with the SR-71 but what ur preference like u like big or small H or bullet shape or aother does weight maters ETC… SR-71 will provide long sleep time IMO and will handle ur toughest trick and combo :wink: ---

Well, they are both excellent well priced yoyos. Go with what you feel YOU would like. Personally, I would go with the SR-71. They GM I feel is a bit to oversized for MY tastes and isn’t the best grinder truthfully 🙂 Anything that is a signature yoyo of Nathan (the SR-71) is sure to be great. Go with what you want. ---
