I am a beginner and I actually have started a thread earlier today asking for recommendations for a decent responsive yoyo, so that I can go back to tricks I learnt and groove it and practice making it smoother, maintaining string tension throughout etc.
I am currently looking at Neo by ThrowRevolution (First Base is all sold out) and also asked about a Alleycat 650B (as I see one on the BST for UK group for £25).
Would it be beneficial for me to try using a slimline like this or at my current level the frustration is not worth it and something to revisit later in the future once I have more basics down. I do struggle with plane management.
I was trying to learn eli-hops last night and I miss half the time on the catch, and I noticed that all my misses are on the inside, suggesting that I don’t keep my throw hand out far enough (or my NTH is too far out).
