Hi! I am new here and I had some questions about which yoyo I should buy. (: A few months ago I yoyoed and loved every second of it. I had a dark magic, but around the niple of it, it like got a cut through it. I am not sure HOW it broke, but it did. After that, I gave up on yoyoing, but now that I have a little extra cash, I want to start back up again. I would really appreciate it if some people could give me advice on which of the three yoyos I should buy: -ProtoStar -Velocity -Hitman -XConvict -Freehand Zero I mainly will just be using 1A, but I might try some freehand too every now and then. All help will be appreciated! On any of these yoyos, would I need to buy spare friction pads or anything of the sort? Thanks in advance! ---

If I were you, I’d get a Velocity. [Here’s Why.](http://yoyoexpert.com/forums/index.php/topic,7480.msg83805.html#msg83805) You won’t need any extra parts, except for string, of course. Also, is your DM completely out of commission? If it still plays alright then I’d just save the money. ---

well if you know how to bind a yoyo get a protostar if not but u still want it go to [youtube.com](http://youtube.com) and look at how to bind a yoyo. if u dont want to do that then get a freehand. ps if u get a protostar get it in grey it looks way better ---

Thanks for the help guys! I decided to get a protostar after looking at a few other threads and reviews. If anyone could tell me some things that I should know about it, I would appreciate it. 🙂
