I don’t know how anybody could agree on “What the best is” seeing there are so many different styles of play now. For example, a Hornet is very decent for 2A while a Torque is much better for 1A and a Skyhawk great for 4A, etc. etc. That is a pretty generic set of examples because there is so many different Manufacturers to choose from offering “what they perceive of as the best” in different price ranges. But some of those listed thus far above are very good throws. ---

I think when people ask what the “best yoyo” is they are referring to “best performance.” I think it is generally agreed that the draupnir is the best yoyo. The difficult part is naming four others 😛 ---

Just making sure this thread doesn’t get sidetracked: Don’t say “there isn’t a best yoyo; it’s all preference”. That isn’t what this thread is about. > [@sparhawk](#): > > Palpitation > Draupnir > Anglam CC > Irony JPX > Yoyomonster Checkmate I might agree with the top 3. Irony and checkmate maybe not. I’ve never even heard of the checkmate before. I’ve heard of the CZM8 though. We must not forget about the Triumph though. Everybody I’ve talked to about it has solidly picked it over the barracuda, and the barracuda has a pretty good track record. ---

The current best 5 1A yoyos are whatever the top 5 1A players currently hold in their hands. Great players make the best out of what they throw, the yoyo is just along for the ride. Top players make top yoyos, not the other way around. ---
