I want to buy a responsive

Question for all you fine folks. I want to buy a responsive yo-yo once again I need your help. I don’t want to buy a cheap responsive like a Duncan butterfly what responsive would you guys choose that is CNC plastic overmolded? I’m looking for something high quality

I’ll consider responsive metal also

What kind of responsive yoyo? Fixed axle, looping, etc.

I was just looking for something to do string tricks kind of like an unresponsive I feel like because I don’t have or responsive? I’m missing out on like the basics other tricks

My go-to higher end responsives are plasm, Deepest state, and turbo confusion

How about thick oil in the bearing?

Origen is really good and also really affordable. Deepest state with greasebucket bearing is worry free zero maintenance awesomeness, though.

Just put a lubed 1/2 Spec C in your Sage (aka rebranded YYF Arrow)

Are half spec bearings called half specs because they’re half of the size C specification or because they’re half of a YYF Spec bearing

SPEC Half Bearing (Narrow) - .125 x .500 x .187 in

It’s not totally 1/2 the width. They are aka Slim Bearings. The whole ABCD bearing names are a Yo-Yo thing so I’ve been told.

I also just saw that and it looks sickk. I will say that one thing I like in a responsive is high walls so I can do 0a stalls and flips and stuff. They are VERY fun

I know longer have the sage. I gave it away to someone who wanted to get into yoyo. I’m also looking for a higher quality plastic yoyo to be honest I don’t like these molded plastics and would like other a metal responsive or a cnc

Get a Deep State or Deepest State. Turbo Confusion can be found cheap, which is one of my personal favorites. Turbo Grind Machine is also good. Machined plastic like Doc Pops PLTS I think could be found on his site.

I would like to suggest this one, it’s a fantastic throw with the ability to lock the bearing and go fixed. Its been my daily player since release
