Hello Everyone!  
This is Colin Beckford.  
Today, I created a Recess Buyer’s Guide.  
This will help you choose what Recess Yo-Yo is best for your play style.

First Base  
MSRP- 20 USD  
Specs-  
Material- Plastic  
Pad Size- 19 mm  
Diameter- 57 mm  
Width- 45 mm  
Weight- 65 grams  
Bearing- Grooved  
How does it play?  
Best quality for price  
Pros-  
Lighter weight provides more capability for faster play and laceration-style tricks,  
flat hub helps tremendously with landing finger spins,  
wider dimensions aid in eliminating the possibility of snag,  
affordable price.  
Cons-  
Lighter weight may be a disadvantage to some in terms of control,  
finish on material does not make grinds (not including finger spins) easy.  
Overall- 8/10

Specs  
Material- 6065 Aluminum  
Pad Size- 19 mm  
Diameter- 56 mm  
Width- 44 mm  
Weight- 66 grams  
Bearing- Grooved  
How does it play?  
Best stability/power  
Pros-  
Finish is great for grinds,  
the hub provides a perfect spot for finger spins,  
weight dimensions create a very solid feel,  
large rim provides a great feel for horizontal.  
Cons-  
Not as easy as other Recess models for speed play,  
small amount of kickback.  
Overall- 9/10

Weekend  
MSRP- 120 USD

Pad Size- 19 mm

How does it play?  
Best quality/speed overall  
Pros-  
Lighter weight provides a great sense of speed,  
stainless steel rings help with stability and power,  
the hub provides a perfect spot for finger spins,  
finish on the yoyo is ideal for grinds,  
smaller diameter is great for types of tricks such as technical yoyoing and chopsticks.  
Cons-  
Light weight may be too difficult to control,  
small diameter may not be favorable for some people,  
smaller gap may enable a higher probability of snag.
