> [@andy569](#): > > Anything that uses pads can be siliconed really… Maybe with newer yo-yos… but at one time pads meant silicone was probably not an option. @ the OP - I know it doesn’t necessarily meet your requirements but I can’t recommend the Rally enough. I’ve had it in my pocket as my daily carry since I got it many weeks ago. And… Happy early Birthday! 🙂 ---

Thank you guys for the suggestions! I don’t really have much of an interest in the rally. I’m really looking for a nice new metal. ---

> [@crococorey](#): > > Is the shutter quiet with the stock bearing? I would doubt that it’s super quiet. Might want to pick up a 10 ball and some v4m. My vote goes to the Rally, simply because I haven’t tried the shutter. The rally is the best thing I’ve ever used under the $75 mark (count out B grades) and seriously is awesome. Rally or shutter, you won’t go wrong. ---

Hmm i’ll probably bump this thread like a week before my birthday to see if more people have tried the shutter. ---

The thing that I really want to learn is that finger spin bind thing. It looks so cool! Do you have to know horizontal to that bind? ---

It’s a horizontal monster. My bro gets mad because I’m constantly playing with his Shutter. 😃 Also, the Shutter is considerably bigger than the g funk which might add some variety to your collection. 🙂 ---

Apparently the g funk is really goid for horizontal so if I start practicing now, maybe I’ll be able to fingerspin by my birthday. ---

> [@crococorey](#): > > Apparently the g funk is really goid for horizontal so if I start practicing now, maybe I’ll be able to fingerspin by my birthday. Who told you that? I’d say it’s average to above average based on the shape… Stuff that are V shaped are really good for horizontal. You can still learn though. It’s not like it’s a dm2… But to be honest, you don’t really need to know traditional horizontal to be able to fingerspin ---

Ok. In almost all of the review that I’ve read it saus that it is perfect for horizontal because it has really big walls or something. ---
