I’m going to start yoyo again and I need recommendations on what to buy. I had a x convict and i really liked it, so I think something similar would be nice. A yoyo thats not too big, fits well in my hand, and has a solid feel but not too heavy. Something around $40, I dont have a set budget so something around that is fine. Tricks I’m doing would be around advanced 2 or expert 1 on this site. I’m thinking of either SFX, darkmagic2, revolution, or northstar right now, any ideas or other yoyos that are good, please tell me. Thanks oh and yes I can bind ---

Based on your criteria, I would recommend the Hitman or the Atmosphere. They fit your budget, and are both undersized yoyos, so they are not too big for your liking. ---

Revolution, Atmosphere, and SFX are really legit. Just fit either of those to your preferences and you won’t be dissapointed. ---

I would try the YYJ Dark Magic 2. It is a great yoyo to learn tricks on and sleeps for a long time. It’s $40.80. It’s one of my favorites. Or if your looking for something a little cheaper, you might like the YYJ Legacy. ---

The Dark Magic 2 is over-sized, while the Hitman Pro is medium-sized. Also, the Dark Magic 2 has a butterfly shape that flattens out at the rims, while the Hitman Pro has more of a round shape. ---
