$10 each or for a set?  
check on the b/s/t for an unleashed, sunset trajectory, loop 900, or modded raider.

They aren’t sold at this store but a pair of Spintastics Technics worked great for me. I still use them for 2a.

Yeah, 10 bucks for one or the whole set. You’re not gonna get too far in the new yoyo’s under ten bucks a set, hard to find a great looper under 5 bucks. But as you heard ^, Spintastics have decent cheap yoyo’s.

BST have cheap great yoyo’s, like the Sunset, Unleashed, Loop 720 or 900, Raider (EX) and more.

I would recommend the Unleashed but they’re 18 bucks new so you gotta go for the BST for this. I think it has a changable gap, and it loops very well, people with Loop 900 or 720’s say that they can compare this to them, maybe even better prefered.

If you’re going all the way to the most advanced, tough luck.

But, really, you can get a cheap looper, and loop with it fine. Just that you might get into some problems when trying out more advanced 2A tricks.

Try the BST section, I recommend the Unleashed, see if you find some there.
