Hey guys, I don’t normally do this, but there are so many choices that its hard to choose my first all metal throw.
I don’t really picture the yo-yo characteristics in terms of numbers so i will just describe some preferences that i liked and disliked from my yo-yos that i own. As of now i own a YYJ Dark Magic, YYJ Lyn Fury, YYF PGM2, and I have played around with a YYJ Speedmaker.
So ill start with the weight. I didn’t really like the weight of the DM, it feels extremely heavy after a extended throw session. But other than that i don’t have a set preference on weight, But i am thinking something in the range of 64-67 would be a good weight.
For the response i really liked the K-pads that were in my Grind Machine, so far this is my favorite response type.
In terms of diameter, width, and shape i don’t think that i have any set preferences. However i think that i would enjoy a mid-size to undersize throw better.
Budget - $60-$100
Lastly, I’ll list some throws that I have been looking at recently and provide some reasons to why i was looking at them
YYF 2010 G5 - I thought this would be cool to try out the H-shape because i have never tried one yet.
Also i thought that the Z-stacks were cool while they could be customized with rice stacks and even trying out the long tip-top stacks would be interesting.
YYF SEVERE - I’ve heard this is a real solid throw and I like the looks of it.
YYF BOSS - This yo-yo always caught my attention and i think this would be my first undersize throw.
YYF Fundamental line - I’ve heard that these are all really good throws and at a nice price.
So any help would be appreciated guys and thanks in advance for tips and suggestions.
