How To Choose a Yoyo
To become a yoyo player, first step is choosing your yoyo. But choosing your yoyo may be harder than it seems. There are hundreds of yoyos which differ in size, level, material, color, and brand.
Choose yoyo by your level
The most important thing when selecting a modern yo-yo is your skill level.
Beginners should always start with responsive yo-yo (yoyo that spins at the end of a string but returns with a simple tug of player’s hand). Responsive yoyos are easier to control and they are perfect for learning basic yo-yo tricks.
Advanced players prefer unresponsive yo-yos (yoyos that spin at the of a string on a ball bearing but do not return with a simple tug of player’s hand). Unresponsive yoyos spin longer and they are able to perform difficult yoyo tricks and long combos.
Material, brand, size and other factors depends on player’s individual preferences.
