Ive been getting into off string yoyoing. Ive looked at a hayabussa, Feista, big yo, and the zeekio bird. If you like one of these or like a particular off string yoyo please comment. Thanks. btw i would like to keep it under $30

I personally love the Hayabusa

When set up correctly it is one of the best.

i think the big yo is your best choice because its huge, sleeps pretty long and is extremely durable

While I haven’t played offstring I certainly wouldn’t get an equinox until I was quite advanced at it. It costs $45 dollars so I’d go with something cheaper. I’ve heard good things about all of those yo-yos I doubt you can go wrong with any of them.

I started 4a about 3 months ago with a Fiesta and all I can say is …wow. It is super easy to catch so it isn’t to frustrating when learning. It has great spin times, I also found whip catches were extremely easy to perform. Another pro is that it is only $25. I fully recommend this yo-yo to anyone wanting to start 4a.

I would start with a Big-Yo because it’s big, so it’s easy to catch, super durable which is good for 4A, and it also is a great 4A yoyo overall. So I would highly recommend it for you.
