I know I posted this before, but I got denied! ☹ Now I have my own money, just $200, but I don’t want to blow it all on a yoyo. So do I really need a metal? I have a dark magic right now, and I’m trying to do ladder escape. If it is worth it, I would like a full-sized yoyo, silicone response, not much modding, color doesn’t really matter, just no all black, and it needs to be as cheap as possible with the effects of metal. ---

There is always M1. It is undersized though. DNA sound about right. 888 is a little small… Give us more detail like Samad’s No yoyo is Better thing, you know where to find it. Of course you do not need a metal but If you think you are ready tthen go right ahead! I can do escape ladder for onle 3 weeks and I have had a metal for a while longer. If you want a cheap metal, Just hit the BSTs, I just got an 888 (07 b-grade Mint…) For 15 dollars. So if you don’t want to spend so much and just want to see if you like metal look for some cheap ones to test. ---

I know about the high-ended ones. Anything under $100? The shape is complicated. I used to like my DM’s shape, but tried a speed-maker, and discovered the shape was easier to use, but I still like the DM’s shape… but I like speed-maker shape? ---

I might be wrong, but isn’t the Meteor an all-metal version of the Speeder? ---

I had an M1. It was amazing once the bearing was broken in. Then I got an L3. Both of these are good ones, but I like my L3 better. They might be a little bit smaller than what you want but I would highly recommend the L3 or even M1. But you don’t really need a metal. It just helps. ---

> [@](#): > > Pistolero sounds perfect for you. I second that. I am a big fan of the Pistolero. My favorite size/shape yoyos include the DNA and DM. Although the pistolero is slightly smaller it feels heavier than advertised, very beefy.Not to mention, the finish on it is smoother than silk. I would HIGHLY recommend one. It’s sold out on SPYY but they claim b-grades will be sold soon. ---

Well, an M1 is undersized so it may not fit you. I think the DNA is a perfect fit for you. :wink: And a milk is not metal. XD ---

I need a metal yoyo. The problem is I’ve never tried an undersized… can anyone give me the dimensions of the M1? I’ll draw it out on paper and see. I know about the over $100 ones. I know. DNA, Bully, Pistolero, 888 would fit me, but I’m looking for a good yet cheap metal. ---
