I was looking at the yyf popstar (obviously) and i was wondering can you do any real tricks with it? And yes i know its is small and gets time getting use too and that you need to like using lighter yoyos but can it actually do some tricks like can it do advanced to master or just advanced? ---

Anything you can do, it can handle. End of story ---

Really, here’s a more detailed copy of Q’s reply: Really popstar is just a good all metal yoyo that can handle anything like surpossed to anything. All about skill. The question “What tricks can it do/handle?” is pretty non-sucseful because if you say that to Q, he’ll say it can do anything. Like there would be a doubt if a Legacy could do anything, but for a popstar, is it obvious or is it not? ---

Any moddern yoyo can do any tricks that are in trick lists. By moddern I mean produced after 2005. And any other non looping trick. Any looping yoyo with a bearing can do any looping trick. ---

actually schnayke, that`s not true. there are MANY yoyo`s out there that are many yoyo`s produced after 2005 that can`t do any trick. Take the yomega power spin for instance. can it do ladder escpape? or yuuki slack? ---

Like the others said you can do anything with a popstar. For the most part, ball bearing yoyo’s today can all handle the same tricks (besides the obvious, you can’t do 1a tricks with a looping yoyo). The difference is some yoyo’s maybe more difficult than others when performing these tricks. ---

main thing i mean is that any yoyo can perform most tricks OR all. its on skill much more depended on yoyo. really there is no better yoyo and that the question (excpet for obvious) “which is better” is just not needed. Its all skill and preferance
