Question about buying a bearing trompo

Spin Tops
1

Okay folks. So I’ve been practicing the last 2 days literally all day and I found a style that I like to throw and I’ve become quite decent at it. Here’s my thing though, I have two yoyo factories, one bearing and one not. I have the Alice which I have not used them, but I ended up buying a three pack of jumbo Cobra on Amazon.

Here’s my thing. I don’t know if I like the yoyo factory pin tops. They just feel really cheap. They don’t really have A quality feel they feel a bit cheap but they also don’t have the girth like the Cobra.

I have to be honest with you. I like the cobras is way more than I like the yoyo factories. But the problem is that I’m finding is the cobras are fixed. So I’m in need of a spin top that feels like the cobras but has a bearing.

I’ve been looking at one called The King king turbo it says it plays and feels like the Cobra. It’s just with a bearing so I’m wondering if anybody’s used it and what your thoughts are.

I’m hoping to hear all advice, but I definitely want something that has a bearing that has girth it just feels really good in your hands like the Cobra

I was under the assumption some tricks can only be done with a bearing trompo or can every trick be done with a fixed tip

You have it backwards, a lot of fixed tip tricks don’t work at all on bearing tips because they rely on the rotation of the tip.

Bearing tips absolutely have their place, but they’re a different niche, not a replacement for fixed tip.
