Sorry about time delayed response from me, had no power most of yesterday and was limiting my phone use.

The AL is a modern responsive beast, though it feels a little heavy on the string for doing 0a stuff like kickflips. I still use it for a mix of both styles. It’s super pocket friendly. I prefer the slim responsive bearing for its snappiness, but the wide flat is good if I want to do more string layers(just gotta keep it well lubed or greased)

I haven’t played the unresponsive set up yet, but I can agree with what @mable has said on this thread

My problem, though, is that I don’t have enough experience to know definitively what kind of effect they’ll actually have during play grinning So it’s one thing to say that one yoyo has higher walls than another, but I don’t yet fully understand how that difference changes other characteristics of the yoyo during play, like spin time or stability. F…

The AL that I just got in came with a really nice looking 10 ball slim c bearing too.  
I can’t remember ever getting anything different than 8’s before.
