'+1 star for being three styles.

1A: Can barely do string tricks, and does not sleep anywhere past 15 seconds..

4A: Sleeps for 10 seconds, somehow less than in 1A, and is way too thin to do any tricks. good luck learning anything other than a basic cast whip. Response is also very diluted, as many times has this yoyo flown away from a bind with certainly enough spin.

5A:Too heavy, and very snaggy. Good luck on bee stings. again, doesn't sleep long enough.

Conclusion: Don't buy it. If you need something cheap, you can get a decent yoyo for 20 dollars, and although it may only do one or two styles, its gonna be a lot better than this. Also, the rubber really hurts and also makes it turn into a race car once it hits the floor.

I've been playing with this one for over 2 months now and I've played with it in 1a, 4a, and 5a. For being an inexpensive, seemingly cheap yoyo, it is very versatile. One yoyo that plays as 3. If you don't expect too much from the Xodus 2 I believe you'll be pleasantly surprised by how smooth it plays in all 3 styles and the weight is actually pretty damn awesome. MHO

There is no reason why you would want to buy this Yoyo. There are better yoyos at this price point and that rubber on the rim hurts when it comes back. Go get a flight or something else.
