It depends on you. Did your Shutter not come with a Center Trac or was it a Flat YYF Bearing? Any of the KonKaves or Center Trac (X or non-X)'s should play very well, giving you more spin than you will probably need. There is a lot to choose from, I would consider how much you want to spend and what performance you wish to gain. [Lots of Bearings.](http://shop.yoyoexpert.com/category/18/Bearings) You may want to consider a Golden Bearing or a Ceramic Bearing for a little added oomph, if you already have a CT. [Golden Center Trac Bearing](http://shop.yoyoexpert.com/product/1050/GOLD-Center-Trac-Bearing) [KonKave Ceramic](http://shop.yoyoexpert.com/product/61/KonKave-Ceramic-Bearing) [Crucial also makes a String Centering Bearing which looks promising for the price point.](http://shop.yoyoexpert.com/product/365/Crucial-Grooved-Bearing) One Drop appears to make the best Flat Bearing, I am sure it is very good… I just never have a chance to get it because it says its never in stock. The Golden Bearings are amazing, will out spin any other bearing I have used, and are reasonably priced. But I think the KonKave Ceramic may be the best value for the money as I can confirm they last a long time and play great if kept up. ---

Subjectivity is king; but most would agree/prefer to a concave bearing to be “the best” What yo-yopro listed are basically the very good ones. But not the best 🙂 ---
