my thoughts exactly brian. if you want to learn to grind, for 10 dollars more get some metal. raw aluminum rims dont grind too well, but better than plastic. anodized and bead blasted is much better. also look in the bst. i am sure you could find something that can grind for $40-$50 ---

If you are looking at the dm2 or protostar get the dm2. I would also suggest that you get the hitman pro. ---

There’s nothing in the rules that says you can’t talk about a yoyo that YYE doesn’t sell. It only says you can’t post links to other stores. No other store was even mentioned, let alone linked. There have been several other recommendations and reviews of yoyo’s that aren’t sold here and it’s never been a problem.
