I am saying a M1. It’s $45 dollars but it’s a metal yo-yo and is VERY good. It has a 10ball bearing which is smooth and has a really long spin time. it’s also undersized so it can fit in my hand. (I’m 12 turning 13) If you want a lower price, totally a Dm (Dark Magic)

Legacy, PGM, or ProtoStar. Some of the best plastics out there, and for really cheap prices. Unbelievable spin times, and really durable, so you don’t have to worry about denting your metal, all 100% unresponsive.

A Legacy will do you well.

A Celocity won’t be a bad idea either.

Ignoring you would be easier if you would stop complaining about necro posting.  
Your help would be appreciated.

He has already been helped, 3 months ago. You bringing this post up is spamming the boards. What is the point of posting in this thread when there is no point!? I’m not complaining, I’m helping, you are the one who is being useless.

It would have died 3 months ago but somebody brought it back up. Without me saying “stop necroing”, it would have kept on being bumped longer than my 3 posts.
