Ok well my birthday was 3 weeks ago and my dad i said he would buy me a throw and I still can’t decide. I want a smooth, stable yoyo thats maybe a little wider long spin time good grinds. I’m considering a massive amount of yoyos. Clyw Puffin,Chief, Arctic Circle. One Drop: Code 1, Code 2, Cascade. Spyy: Revenger,Orbiton 5000 Duncan: Momentum. X Cube: Stampede,Zeus. The ones I’m Looking at the most are Chief,Puffin,Cascade,Revenger,Momentum and Stampede. Edit: I own a General-Yo Majesty, 3YO3 Capella and a YYF Genesis Love them all ---

The stampede sounds Like what you want. It looks like its bead blasted so you have good grinds. It’s wider and probably has a good spin. It also seems smooth enough. ---

What throws do you have right now, and what is your skill level. ---

I’m going to recommend the Chief. If you don’t have one, you really can’t go wrong with it. To me, it just does everything really really well. I think a few other of my throws have more personality, but the Chief is all in all probably my most reliable throw. I know how its going to behave and its very consistent. ---

I have a puffin and a chief, and the reason i went chief over puffin for my recommendation was stability. I think the Chief has much more stability. The puffin isn’t bad, but at least for me once it starts off track, I can’t really do much with it, where as with my Chief, I can typically get it back on track. Both are awesome, but if I could only have one of the two, i would take my Chief. ---
