Get a Classic:
YoYoJam – YoYoExpert
(The Pink Cancer one includes the wider bearing, but not upgrade pads)
THEN, get this, the Classic Upgrade kit:
YoYoFactory Upgrade Kit – YoYoExpert
Right around $20 and everything you want to get started.
I’m not basing this strictly on price and trying to be a budget-friendly solution. I honestly dig this combination a lot and find myself playing this $10 yoyo a LOT lately.
Another all-in one solution(stock with better pads and includes both bearings) would be:
YoYoJam Legacy II or Legacy III(I think) and the YoYoJam Chaser.
I strongly recommend starting responsive. These yoyos grow with you with the least amount of effort.
don’t forget string. I highly recommend you buy this stuff and some string. Just normal 100 percent poly will do just fine.

Are you set on an offset yoyo? What do you want from it?

That’s hard to choose but right now I’d say my favorite is the A-RT Quail, haven’t tried a Sparrow though. I really enjoy the play of the minis with an A or D size bearing.
Sounds cool but I don’t know what that is because I’m a beginner
I’ve just been yo-yoing in school a lot with my friends

Also, if you want something to finger spin on its hard to go wrong with the Shooting Star or Speedaholic. I prefer the speedaholic but the shooting star is more bang for the buck for a beginner.

I ordered the ultra cut but I need to know what size the bearing and response pads are I know there will be that stuff with the yo-yo but I need to know where to buy new stuff if I have to.

Most important:
Yellow string plays best.
Everything else is optional.
