So, I just got a new welding job at a good company and I decided as a way 2 celebrate I will splurge on an all metal.

I really like th G5, but I don’t like the colorful Z-Stacks. So the classic one is the better choice in terms of looks, but is the G5 worth that extra $20? I want the hubs for sure. The new 54 looks like they might b doing something hub-like in the future tho. I also like the Genesis cuz its miggys and I’m 5A. Please help with advice fuor my first all metal.

I would recomend a YYF Primo, Genesis, or Severe.  
But the YYJ Phenomizm and AI are also really good.  
Some other Great Metals are:  
One Drop 54 and MarkMontNext  
General-Yo Hatrick  
Any CLYW  
RecRev No.9  
SPYY Punchline.

Hope this Helps!

You can take the Z-stacks off the G5.

i also like the one drop 54 as long as they are gonna do a Z-stack type thing in the near future.

also, why is no one really suggesting the G5? what’s wrong with it?

It`s the shape of the G5 it feels so slim.

it’s between the G5, Genesis+, and that beautiful Superstar.

i play 5A

the G5 gets super points for the z-stacks.  
the Gensis gets points for being Miggys and available in green.  
The Superstar has super wicked paint options right now.

If you really want stacks and a nice playing 5A yoyo, get a SuperStar. Genesis plus would be good as well, but the stacks kinda ruin the point of the Genesis being a stackless GM2. The G5 is a bit too skinny and not the best for 5A in my personal opinion.

You shouldn’t pick a yoyo because of color…  
most yoyos with hubstacks take Z stacks…  
Z stacks arent all that pricey…

The hubstacked Genesis plays a little better than the GM2 imo… And while the G5 is very narrow, I have grown to love mine for 5A

Personally, Z-Stacks aren’t really a big deal.

Go with a Genesis either stacked or standard. If you get the stacked version, you can get Z Stacks and just replace the standard stacks. I LOVE my Genesis.

You might like a YYJ Axiom. It’s really expensive, but it has long sleeptimes and is good at grinds. You also may like the much cheaper Dv888. Hope I helped.&nbsp; :wink:

You can get a YYJ Axiom here: [http://shop.yoyoexpert.com/product/6/YYJ-Axiom](http://shop.yoyoexpert.com/product/6/YYJ-Axiom)
