It’s tempting as I like small yoyos but currently my Clique is scratching that itch. Clique’s specs for those who wonder - uses a C bearing instead of an A which feels great in this. - Weight: 58.4 grams - Width: 34.4 mm - Diameter: 43 mm - Stock Response: 19mm Slim - Gap Width: 4.15 mm I will have to say though that playing a yoyo of this size and jumping back to a full size, you do feel a lot more accurate, things feel easier. Same goes for when I jump from a 66% to even an undersized throw. ---

Hey @yyfben2.deactivated , out of semi related curiosity, was it you who actually designed the Shutter? I feel like that’s an important piece of yoyo history (considering its popularity) that I can’t find anywhere. ---

The obvious answer is, it depends… Since “better” is entirely subjective, it might be easier if you tell us what qualities **you** feel make a yoyo “good” in the first place. ---

I like to think the “Best” yoyo is the one you’re holding! I don’t have the 66% Shutter and Steel is my first mini. It’s fun to throw and can be challenging. I think its worth every penny and she is super pretty! We were talking about it here… [What did you get in the mail for 2020/2021? - #8103 by Shwa](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/what-did-you-get-in-the-mail-for-2019-2020/302416/8103) ---

I haven’t played the steel shutter, but do have a similarly sized yoyo - the One Drop Clique. I feel like the steel shutter was designed to be a mini that feels like it plays bigger. That’s how the Clique is. The 66 shutter gives an added challenge with being a smaller form factor. It really depends on what your want out of it, your comfort level with small yoyos. I was pretty impressed with the tiny shutter myself… But I’m a 66% yoyo fan boy and tend to buy every model they release. ---

I might get it to find out I lost both my 66% Shutters that I loved, soooo I might get it to see if it’s just as good. ---

I’m sure it’s more performance-orientated. I’d like to try it. I never connected with the Popstar due to my skill level. Maybe one day I will be able to manage it better. I never meant to say it was better. ---

I know you didn’t. I’m just saying it’s a whole nother animal. Fingerspins are super fun on the Popstar, though! [Previous page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/mini-practice-shutter/329509.md?page=1)
