Hello everyone this is my first post on the yye forums ;D, i am on a budget of 70-80 dollars ( USD ) but preferably around 50 dollars and i am having a hard time deciding on what to buy. Someone recommended a POPstar but according to reviews on the interwebs, it is not very stable. I’m looking for a ‘’ main throw ‘’ and the G-Funk seems to be nice. My criteria is, grindable, sleeps well, good rim weight ( obviously ), good balance and can play fast. Grinding is not a priority. These yoyos seem nice, Super G, Frantic, DV888, Raptor and maybe a tactic. Click on this link if you can find something to recommend, ( budget 100 sgd = around 80 usd ) [http://www.spinworkx.com/forum/index.php?topic=778.0](http://www.spinworkx.com/forum/index.php?topic=778.0) Thanks !! ---

C3yoyodesign Di Base. Or, add a little and get the Capless! Even cheaper, plastic - The Northstar or Protostar - also great yoyos! Though probably not that much of a upgrade from the Legacy As the metals listed ---

you should definitely get something from recrev. They never get much attention, but they make some of my favorite yo-yos out there and have really low prices. ---

i would pick up a protostar i still constantly play mine, its a great all around yoyo that will last you forever but if you want a metal recrev or yyf is the way to go both make really nice metals at a really low price ---
