Had fun with a cheap Duncan 15 years ago and after my son received a yo yo for Christmas, I kind of want to get one too. I’d like to get a responsive metal yo yo if anyone can recommend a good one. Plastic would be ok too but not my first choice.

Thanks!

Alley cat 650b or Deep State are both great. Confusion is also really good. There are some great yoyos in your future!

Depending on who responds, you’ll see the following slimline metal responsives recommended:

- Deep State
- AlleyCat (650b)
- Confusion
- The Gamer
- Sherpa

I’m curious about the Confusion GT, my SB2 seems quite similar to the stock GT. Anyone have experience with the GT, I want another dedicated responsive since my son made my V6 disappear
