I’ve not had good luck in the past with either yyj or yyf throws but i’ve decided to give them a very expensive second chance. haha. so performance wise which is more solid?

I’d make sure I was getting a 7075 Genesis if I were to get one

As for the Hex I think the phenom is a better throw

If you want something solid, get the yoyofactory Aviator, this thing is the most solid yoyo I have ever played.
