You can look for yoyos that are a bit heavy and a bit narrow in gap, usually those yoyos are super stable and very easy to move around the strings and it makes them great for tech ---

I think the Topyo Colossus R fits your bill pretty well. It plays pretty heavy and has a good width for tech. Some sellers have it around $45. ---

One more option is the rockstar. I tried it at club and it was good. Fits the bill for what people usually mean when they say “tech” yoyo. You can do tech with any yoyo really but uh yeah the weight will help the yoyo stay spinning through long combos and the size isn’t so big that it will get caught up in dense string formations. > **[ROCKstar](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/products/rockstar?variant=42979981525182)** > > Introducing the YoYoFactory - ROCKstar 2023, a revival by SUS Mechanics that pays homage to the iconic original.
