a. Beginner yoyo
Recess First Base
b. Plastic Unresponsive
iYoYo Shooting Star or C3 Speedaholic XX
c. Metal first unresponsive
Magicyoyo Y03 Hertz or Magicyoyo Y01 Node
d. Mono-metal
Shutter or Shutter Wide Angle
e. Bimetal
YoYoFriends Hummingbird if you can get one, otherwise a Duncan Grasshopper GTX or Orbital GTX
f. Titaniums
No titaniums are widely available tbh so it’s really up to them. I would have the Ti-Vayder and the Ti-888.

Considering they’re practically IMPOSSIBLE to get brand new from a drop, I don’t blame you. I wouldn’t have any A-RT’s or G2’s if it weren’t for the BST. Crazy how companies like them that were mega small/didn’t even exist when I took a break like 5 years back, are the hottest thing around now. Makes me wonder who out there right now, that I haven’t given any thought to, is gonna be the next big thing in yoyo. Kinda cool to see companies evolve and not stay stagnant, like some other industries. Kinda a tangent there, but anyways…

So I am taking the approach of things currently available here just incase a rookie stumbles upon this.
Plastic responsive: speedaholic- at 10 bucks this is the steal of the century
Plastic unresponsive- 2 options, pick up a full spec bearing for the previously mentioned speedaholic, or pick up the Antidote
Budget first metal- colossus, finally having played one, there is no doubt in my mind that this is budget metal done to perfection.
Mono metal- to get a different feel I would go with a Koi, fantastic organic.
Bi metal- I feel like the El presidente is slept on so much
As for titanium, I personally wouldn’t recommend any to anyone. There are quite the investment so they should suit the players personal tastes

First responsive - whip, one, or legend wing
First unresponsive plastic - fools gold clyw yeti 2.0 (for just $5 that’s a steal) or replay pro
First unresponsive metal - shutter trainer or shutter
First bi-metal - grasshopper GTX
These suggestions are for quality yoyos that won’t break the bank

Those first 2 were actually my first 2 yoyos
