How To Choose a Yoyo To Start With?

The most important thing for yo-yoing is the yo-yo. But how do you choose the right one to start with?

The most expensive does not always mean it is better. If you are starting out, you should begin with a yo-yo which is responsive. This means that the yo-yo spins at the end of the string, but can return to your hand by tugging upwards.

Why Start With a Responsive Yoyo?

The most crucial trick to start with is to throw the yoyo correctly and return the yo-yo back to your hand.

And while some beginner yo-yos can easily turn into a non-responsive yo-yo by changing the ball bearing, you need to master a more advanced trick to get it back in your hand.

Beginner tricks are also much easier to master with a yo-yo designed specifically for that, and if you progress gradually, you can learn a few new yo-yo tricks every day.

Walk, don’t run. Starting with an advanced yoyo at the beginning will make it much more difficult to properly learn tricks.
