personally, I dislike the specs of all three of those. if you MUST choose one of them, ask yourself not which yoyo you want, but what you want in it. do you want stability? speed? fingerspins? grinding surface?

keep in mind I haven’t thrown either of the 3, but I can say for sure I’m not liking the chunky size of the aviator. I would prefer the specs of the cyborg, but its too ugly for me, I would probably buy the proton.

Yoyos I’d consider going from lowest to highest price (some like the positron were adjusted for price since it only came in more expensive colorways. Same goes for the new genesis):

It would help to know what you already have, that could make a difference in what you’re looking for.

When it comes to overall stability and pure performance, my personal favorite is an unhubstacked genesis.

Genesis & superstar outperform most of the throws you listed, just saying.
