SpintasticsTornado - Looping Yo-Yo, Classic Shape, Ball-Bearing Axle, Designed by World Yo-Yo Champion, (Black)

The Tornado 2 Spins real well, and that's about all it does.I had an ordinary Duncan yo-yo as a kid, and I don't recall having any trouble using it. I expected the Tornado 2 to perform at least as well. I am sorry to report that it does not.I have learned here on Amazon that a ball-bearing yo-yo is essentially the Lamborghini of yo-yos, while a simple five decades-old Duncan is supposed to be a beat-up 1949 Chevy sedan. One thing about Lamborghinis: Though they are expensive, high-performance machines, one could back it out of the driveway and head to the grocery store for a loaf of bread and some milk. The Tornado 2 should be able to go down and up again without a bunch of fuss. This is not the case. I goes down, and it stays there and spins all day long. After about twenty minutes of struggling I put it back in the box. It's probably still in there spinning.Some reviewers have mentioned the need to practice for days, or even weeks, to use a ball-bearing yo-yo. Forget that. If you want a yo-yo that does what a yo-yo is designed to do, then forget ball bearings and select an ordinary yo-yo. If you're looking for high-speed spinning, super tricky moves, and a lifetime of practice, then go with this or one similar.

Not good quality. save the $12.99 and don’t get it..
