I have some pocket throws, yyf bullseye, and the cheatcode. What is a good yoyo to try? I’m looking to start competing and trying different throws to see what I like best. ---

YYF wide angle shutter. Good all around. Not expensive. Easy to find. If you damage is very easy to replace. You will need at least two yoyos for competition. And is a world champion yoyo, so its proven. ---
