I’m going to buy a new yoyo. I want to get an all metal one. I have a DM and love it. I was wondering if all metal yoyos play better than half plastic half metal ones? If not then i think I will get a protostar, speeder, or a hitman. If they are then i wanna get one. I was thinking maybe getting a genesis, meteor, or the eneme/axiom(i think they might be too small). Price Range: ~85$ Size: Medium to Large(i don’t want the diameter to go too much under 2 inches) Color: Don’t Care Playing Style: I don’t care if it can grind that well. I want to be good for the crazy string tricks. I want the yoyo to be durable. I have heard many stories that the meteor scratches and dents easily if it hits the ground, this is a BIG problem for me. I don’t want to mod it unless it is something very simple. ---

Seems like the Genesis would be good for you. ---

Dv888 is undersized. I would totally go for the genesis. It is smooth, grinds well, is great for string tricks and 5a, and it looks awesome. ---
