I’m not generally a fan of H shaped yo-yos since I like my throws to feel light if not necessarily fast, and H-shaped yo-yos often end up very much having a dense, compact feel to them due to the concentration on rim weight.
However, some exceptions and yo-yos that I adore would be:
Favourite classic/stepped H-shape: Luftverk Exos
Favourite new school H-shape: CLYW Klondike
Favourite inverse H shape: Duncan GTR-JS
Honourable mention: ZGRT Libero, just got this today but it plays like a zippy V-shaped throw, despite the classic H-shape.
For aggressive H the time slip is definitely fun powerful and super smooth. Very stable and to top it off it’s hella cheap to buy! Anyone on a budget looking for power and stability should own one.
But my favorite monometal H would probably go to the zgrt Chi. I just love that yo-yo. Everytime I pick it up it reminds me why why I have never gotten rid of it, and it makes me think more n more that’s it one of my favorite yo-yos in general. I’ll usually leave it alone for awhile while I accumulate and add more throws to the collection and after I’ve added several new yo-yos and some time has passed I’ll reach for it and I realize I like it better then all the new ones. It’s definitely top 5 for me right now.
Some Oxygene’s are it always depends on who is interested in the brand and the model of throw. Some people will pay a great deal for a not so sought after throw to complete a brand set. Some people will not like a throw that is sought after and dump on it regularly every time it is mentioned on a post or thread.
Oxygene throws are ones that are more sought after, fewer people are bashing this brand so it can garner a higher price with most people interested in throws.
Oh Oxygene throws are amazing do not pass one up if you are considering getting one that is up for sale they do not come up often, due to not so many available for many reasons.
The C3yoyodesign Scintilator was my first experience with aggresive H shape and I fell in love with the shape because of it. My favorite is the og Pixelape.
