Both the Speedmaker and the Lyn Fury are great yoyos if you are starting out on string tricks. It’s not that big of a matter which one you get. The big difference is in the shape. The Lyn Fury is very round while the Speedmaker is V-shaped. So you will have to decide. ---

Like Pheenix said their both great yoyo’s with very different shape I myself have both but I prefer Speedmaker, also my little brother is learning fast with it but it all comes down to prefence ---

Hey, my name is Sean. I am 17 years old, I have been Yo-Yo-ing since I was 7. I really got into the tricks at 13, and I have been hooked since. I have a pretty extensive collection of yoyo’s and I am very knowledgeable about them, primarily YoYoJam and Duncan. I have a Dark Magic, a SpinFaktor, a Speeder, Axiom, eight8eight, Meteor, a few Duncan yoyo’s and a DNA. my Favorite is the Dark Magic, and runner up is my Speeder. love them. ---

Hi, my name is Brad. Location: Boise,ID Age: 24 Yo’s I own: Lyn Fury, Hitman, Superstar. Havn’t busted out the Hitman or Superstar yet cause I forgot to order some thin lube with them. I’ll just have to find a local store to buy some cause I’m not paying $6 for shipping a $5 item 🙂 The next yo I’m buying is a dark magic. Then prolly either a CUT or 888, still not sure which yet. I just started yo-ing today after, o I don’t know, an 8 year hiadus. My first ball bearing yo-yo became too unresponsive for a tug pull and I basically gave up winding that thing. I thought it was broke, lol, come to find out I just needed to do a “trick” to get it to come up. I really appreciate all everyone does to make this web-site the huge help/hit that it is, especially André. Thank you for taking the time to go through all the tricks in such detail. I landed a double or nothing on the very first throw after watching your video a few times through. Its amazing how you explain everything in words, along with the demonstration (do a bit of the trick, talk for a while and that thing is just spinning there, waiting (like a well trained dog) for you to continue, very impressive indeed). My binding skills are horrible though, been practicing like literally all day, and still have streaks or 4-7 binds that do nothing. I just need to keep at it, althought its kinda frustrating to do a trick-then be unable to return the yo to my hand lol, o well, practice will surely fix my problems(hopefully :)) Take care all and keep the magic alive. ---

Welcome Brad! You shouldn’t “need” yoyojam thin lube to play with your new yo-yos! You should play them as is - the bearings will break in on their own - its usually good to lube your bearings for the first time after a month or two of play, etc. Let us know if you have anymore questions! ---

Hi my name is Brian. I’ve been yoyoing for about 5 months total. My main players are my gold Auldey L3 (super smooth) and my blue pad M1. I also have a yellow hybrid hitman, spinmaster 2, spinfaktor hg, stealth fire, and a brain. I found out about this site when I was looking for video tutorials and I only recently realized there was a forum on here =P Great job with the tutorials, they help incredibly much.
