A wooden looper from a colonial village gift shop called “Old Sturbridge Village” ([http://www.osv.org/](http://www.osv.org/))waaaay back in 3rd grade in like 1990. It had a fixed wooden axle on only one side so it came apart. I used to stick the string in the hole and push the axle over it so it would auto return. I was so lame then!

First Wooden Transaxle - Playmaxx Pro-yo (Pre-Duncan)

First Bearing - Duncan Freehand 2

First Metal - Yomega Maverick

First Unresponsive - YYJ Dark Magic

I have since been back to Old Sturbridge Village as an adult with my kids and found that they do still sell wooden loopers- but they no longer suck. I own 2 and each of my older kids have one as well. :wink:

THE HAYABUSA IS A YOYO FOR ALMOST ANY STYLE OF PLAY IMO.  
I USED IT STOCK. YOU DONT NEED TO RECESS IT TO MAKE IT UNRESPONSIVE
