lol What about getting a pgm for hubstacks? since it doesn’t fit the $30, you can also buy a kickside and some synergy caps! Pull starting is fun.

The legacy is a really good yoyo it’s just like the DM, HM, or the x-convict but way cheaper & all plastic, but weighted plastic so it can be like the metals.

If u dont care what style its for maybe get a pair of 2a yoyos, i hear yyj sunset trajectorys are good or maybe get an offstring yoyo? Learning a new style is always fun! And if you got a few extra bucks get some duncan counterweights for your hotshot.

Try hitman, if you do a hard trick, it’ll be great/fun or a mini-motu, its pretty small.

Happy Throwing! =]

If you want a fun yoyo, I would go for a yoyojam bigyo!

They are large but really fun to use for 4A.  
One of the best 4A yoyos ever and good to learn on.

And throwing some 1A on it feels awesome and will put a smile on your face every time.

5A feels nice as well.

A very good yoyo that I think every yoyoer should have.

And it fits your price range like a glove.

A great yoyo for fun.

If you want something a bit more for standard 1A and maybe even 5A, try a plastic Grind Machine.  
Nice awesome playing yoyo.

Either way, you will enjoy the yoyo.

Good luck with whatever you choose!

Well, Synergy Caps are said to mess up yoyos, the are almost impossible to get off.

I would go with a straight out Yo-Yo instead.

I think the stacked PGM sounds like a pretty good choice. You get the fun out of hubstacks. You get the fun of freehand play. I just started freehanding and it is wicked fun. I did not hink it would be that much fun, but it really is. And if you know a lot of the 1a tricks on this site, you will go through the 5a tricks really fast. Of course, a synregized Aquarius is also a great choice. I have not tried offstring yet, but I will try that out soon, and I bet it will be fun. But just a note from YoyoExpert on the synergies:

> [@](#):
>
> In some of the wider models (Dark Magic, Speeder, or Aquarius) the Synergy caps still fit and work but it may make the yo-yo play funny during regular Single A or Offstring

Again, just a note.
