Wondering anyone’s thoughts on the magicyoyo v13. Beginner here and looking for a metal that is both responsive and unresponsive. I also would like to do string tricks and finger spins. For the 30 bucks the magicyoyo v13 costs is there anything better in that price range. Thanks for all the help ---

If you’re after a finger spin dimple I think it’s perfect! My normal go to for that price range would be the YYFriends Ultracut but it doesn’t have a finger spin dimple! The v13 is fantastic ---

Excellent and thanks. How do you like it for other tricks. Do you think it’s a solid yoyo for string tricks and how’s the balance and weight ---

Good on all accounts I’d say! It’s a great YoYo for the price range ---

Another good option would be Yoyofriends Helix, just food for thought ---

I’ll check that out also thanks. Since the helix is unresponsive what bearing would I need to make it responsive since I’m new to yoyos so I can have both ---

Can’t you just buy a new bearing to make it responsive? Just wondering what bearing what I use with the helix ---

I learnt this the hard way with my Baryon. If the bearing seat is too low the two halves can’t close. Lower bearings are also harder to remove… haha. I think it may just be a case by case kinda deal
