They have Wraths in stock. I really like mine - it plays really quite well, it’s a really enjoyable throw, and its by someone new which I also really appreciate. I think at the moment they’re probably going o hold price reasonably well too.

Hmm… The V doesn’t ffit the width, but I think it is very comfortable and easy to control and land tricks in my opinion. It’s pretty light, and the diameter fits. Also it’s cheap.

RARARARARARAEARARARARARARARARARRARARARRARARARRARARARRAR… Yeah, so i kinda disagree about that code 2 thing… i was just raging because… um… IMMA FIRING MAH LAZAR (yes i did do that, even though it is old).

But in all seriousness, here are a few yoyos that i would consider for 1a:  
Cascade  
supernova (for the specs)  
Burnside  
chief (if you say you hate this… i might actually cry)  
avalanche/ arctic circle  
i have also heard good things about the yyf proton, if that interests you.

Funny thing I own all of those yoyos xD

Well not the proton but perhaps!

(Chief is a favorite check the side haha!)

And the code 2 feel so bland to me!  
No feeling in a sense nothing special  
Boring  
Don’t feel like playing kinda throw haha

I received a proton last week and I think it’s fantastic! Really really good spin times, and with plenty of speed and hop if required (I don’t want that bit but I still think it’s good). I think that it is excellent for the price. It provides plenty of Turning Point into the mix, with a nice finish. Completely welcome addition to the collection.

Grinding abilities?

The Proton is pretty much a TP Positron with an IRG.

I think thumb grinds are pretty decent, and although finger grinds work fine for me I think it probably depends on the size of your hands compared to the throw, because the throw is reasonably small. Stability-wise I don’t think you can go wrong really, seems very stable to me. I haven’t played a solenoid, but I’d agree with Yuki and say I think it is comparable to the positron, but for a much better price! Definitely worth a punt.
