The pros use all 3. I can give you videos if you like. Also, its impossible to tell you without the slightest hint of what your looking for. Give us some preference.

The north is very stable and sleeps really long

The yuuksta is small and fast

The protostar can be as fast as you and is good for horizontal yo-yoing

Jensen kimmitt uses a north star

Yukki Spencer uses a yuuksta

John ando uses a protostar

Do you like full sized plastics with bigger gaps? Protostar. You really cannot answer this question. Its subjective to your style. Get what -you want- and ignore everyone who gives you answers. Its what you want. I bet 99% of the people who reply to this thread never used all three of these.

First off people on the forums are just trying to help

And in fact I own a yuuksta and protostar (2) and my friend has a norhtstar and I’ve spent a good time playing with it

He asked what the pros use so I told him

And I told my opinion on the yoyos

Ps some yoyos are really heavy at the end of the string and hard to maneuver
