YYF CZM84VK. Perculiar texture but grinds fantastically. Best grinding surface I’ve ever seen is in the General yo Majesty but that’s a bit expensive… ---

SPYY Pro is probably my favourite. Deadly SpINS Wrath is up there, too. ---

The XLR8 should be a really good YoYo for grinds. And you can get a pair with the money you plan on spending. The C3 Speedaholic also looks good for grinds and you can get 2 and still be able to buy the XLR8 :wink: ---

Spin Dynamics Smooth Move. It is quite expensive, but it is the best Grinder I ever used. The exaggerated rims reduce the Friction for more grinds and a grind within a combo and not at the end. I would pop the caps out so you can have an easier time with Thumb grinds. ---

I especially like the Evil Yo’s finish out of all the MonkeyfingeR throws, because the blast is more aggressive. I think they had to tone it down because it was cutting strings. The shape on it is perfect for grinding too. ---

Anything with a grunt bull blast… General Yo Majesty is amazing also.
