Hello, I’ve been looking at different One Drop yoyos for a while. I’ve looked at quite a few and still don’t know what I want. I have a slower and slacky play style and I’ve been looking at: The 54-for its floatiness, the downbeat-for its slow speed, and the dingo-because undersized throws are fun. I’m really leaning toward the 54, but I don’t know if I should go for it or get the downbeat (my second option.)

I’m open to other suggestions if anyone has any. Thanks.

From your description of your preference I’d highly recommend the Downbeat.

The Downbeat is awesome! I really liked the 54 that I had (would get another if I could find a bluegrass fade), but I LOVE my Downbeat it is the king at slow and laid back playing.
