I hear the speedaholic is good. But you can always buy bearings or go save it to get a nicer Yoyo In the future. ---

Stocking up on bearings and response would be a good idea. I know you don’t want strong but maybe buying a few things of “boutique” string (toxic, yysl, twisted) would be nice. ---

Maybe combination of C3 Speedaholic and YYJ Classic? Also, just 5$ more is full metal Yoyofficer Kilter 🙂 ---

Save your gift certificates, save a little more money, ask questions and look around for what you really want. ---

So I decided what I’m buying, I bought my mom a YoYoMOM T-Shirt and I had enough left to buy myself 4 response pads! ---
