I lost my old catalyst and before that i used a genesis. I enjoyed the catalyst a bit more because of the greater speed it allowed me, the genesis felt a bit heavy. Any recommendations on a fast paced yoyo of good quality? All i have is a protostar right now and its not giving me what I need.

I’m not really sure what’s similar to the Catalyst because I’ve never played one, but you could always buy a hubstack catalyst and remove the hubstacks?
