You’re fine. The 888 can handle pretty much anything. It’s not a yoyo I’m interested in though.

Since we’re already talking the $100 range and you’re up there in the skill level set. you’ve got loads of choices. One Drop’s Code 1, Code 2, 54, Dietz, Dang and Burnside are all great.

After that, there’s still an amazing amount of great yoyos both well under $100 and over. Most stuff in that price bracket tends to be really good stuff. You can pretty much do no wrong, unless you find that a yoyo just isn’t a good fit for you.

Also, my eye caught on the 1 drop 54. It looks like a beautiful Yoyo. Is this the one?? How is it performance wise?

Thanks,

Phenom is a favorite of mine. Phenomizm is great too.

CLYW makes some great stuff too, just it’s hard to get new. Used is the way to go, plenty out there. This brand really holds its value.

I like it. I like the Code 1 and Code 2 better, as well as the Burnside, but it’s still an amazing yoyo. It’s more “organic shaped”. Very comfortable. If you’re into grinds, you may wish to see if you can get an orange peel edition.
