Most anything will do. You make it unresponsive by cleaning the bearing. (And give it a light lube.) ---

love my yoyofactory yuuksta. it’s unresponsive, light, undersized, h-shaped, stable, spins long time, acid colors, smooth, fundametal price ($65), might still come with center trac bearing (good at centering the string for new yoyo-ers) Some say center trac is a crutch, but some also say it’s their favorite bearing: preference If I were to fill in the blank, my guess would be: “Don’t get (yomega), they are great responsive…” I’ve tried cleaning the bearing and siliconing my yomegas, but they remains responsive. See if your dad’s friend wants a large, medium, or small size and weight, with or without hubstacks, and pick a shape: H, regular wing, curved wing ---

seriously guys, speed dial, it can be unresponsive or responsive, AND, it has rubber rims to avoid most dings.
