Some of my favorite yoyos and I don’t hear much about them in my internet travels. That might be because I don’t read everything out there so it’s limited to what I have seen. Chico Bulldog - great shape and super smooth RecRev i - great weight, shape and performance OneDrop Y-Factor - it’s like throwing a circular-shaped cloud ILYY Sakura - my hands down favorite ILYY and may be my favorite yoyo even though I don’t like purple much String Theory YoYos - Remnant 2 - this yoyo has an amazing feel and just spins forever ---

God-tricks Cyclone and Yoyofficer Brave. Top playing yo-yos, for price around 50$. Just because they come from China, some people completly ingores them. ---

The yoyofactory protege has near no recognition on forums or on YouTube. It was my first high-er end throw and I still love it to this day. I think it was $65 way back when, and I will never get rid of this thing. Maybe it’s sentimental but I think if you can get your hands on one do it! ---

Out of all the yoyos I’ve tried, no one makes better yoyos than General Yo. ---

I’m going for the NVx. Still available, but rarely heard of these days. Good price now too, as it’s knocking on a bit. Smooth, and as stable as a 36 legged table. ---

It definitely seems to be the case that a single bad throw can be truly detrimental to a manufacturer - rightly so I suppose for those who sink a considerable amount of money into a single throw. Equally, only producing more contemporary shapes seems to potentially be a bad idea too, I love my LaGoutte but I think a lot of people are nervous based on the wide and interesting shapes of XCube’s other throws. ---

Out of all the yoyos I’ve tried, no one makes better yoyos than General Yo. They weren’t discontinued I don’t think. I am pretty sure they were a limited run. Just used to raise funds for the “protege team.” I don’t know I could be wrong. ---

> [@Logi](#): > > Chief lol. I think that the BvM’s are underrated. Ik, it gets a lot of hype just because it is a CLYW, but it is commonly thought of as alongside the Marmot to be the worst CLYW throw to date, and i highly disagree. i think that the BvM is a top 5 CLYW throw. ---

I think the yyf whip is very good and the od 54 why isn’t everyone talking bout this yoyo I think it’s the best throw u Dan buy for under 100 bucks. It is so light and smooth with great spin times and plays fast but controllable ---
