Hey,

I’m 16 and I started yoyoing back when I was around 10. I started off yoyoing with cheap yoyo toys but moved on to a PowerYo Black Widow and then a Dark Magic 2. I left yoyoing for some time but always came back to it temporarily, so I’ve been yoyoing on and off since I was around 12.

I do string tricks and the best tricks I can do are things like Kwijibo etc (I’ve forgotten the names for a lot of them). I want to return to yoyoing since my exams are over and wanted to start with a brand new throw (I’ve messed up the bearing and response system on the DM2 and so it has lots of vibration and is too responsive).

I want an all metal yoyo this time, and something that costs under £40 ($62) preferably. I quite like the weight of the DM2 but I wouldn’t mind trying something lighter. I’d like a yoyo that can do several combinations at a time as well since I’ll be having to perform for this project/award thing.

Thank you for your patience, I have forgotten quite a bit of knowledge I had on yoyos growing up :-.

P.S. What happened to YoyoNation ??? ? I used that forum ALL the time when I was younger.

Thanks again 🙂

Welcome back friend…sounds like you might like a Duncan Torgue, or the YYF Shutter both are not too expensive…but you should check all the opportunities that the YYE Forum has to offer you!

Yoyonatin shut down because off some bad stuff happening like stealing from their physical store.

I would recommend a yoyofactory cyborg 2.0

But you can also go with a yoyofactory 2hot or Czech point.

The Shutter, without a doubt. It will take you far. Hey, Gentry Stein used it to win worlds.

The Shutter seems like a cool choice! I’d be willing to raise my budget to £50 ($78) if there are better throws worth investing in for that much. Thanks 🙂

Shutter will take you very far.

If you want though, you can take a look at the Benchmark series by OneDrop. They use side effects and will easily last you a lifetime if you take care of them.

Get the CZPoint! New colors and splashes coming August. Solids in Black, Aqua, Pink, and WYYC edition. It’s stable, speedy, and I tihnk will be to your liking 🙂

Ah wow there are so many choices! Far more than four years ago by the looks of it, although I could be wrong about that. Literally every yoyo looks so good and picking just one seems impossible :-\ . Thanks for all the input!
