Yomega The Original Brain - Professional Yoyo for Kids and Beginners, Responsive Auto Return Yo Yo Best for String Tricks + Extra 2 Strings & 3 Month Warranty (Red)

I purchased the Yomega Brain Auto-Return Yo-Yo to help teach a beginner the basics of yo-yoing, and it has been an absolute success. The standout feature is the legendary centrifugal clutch system built into the core. When thrown, the yo-yo spins smoothly at the end of the string, but as the rotation slows down, the internal clutch automatically engages and snaps the yo-yo straight back up to your hand. It completely eliminates the frustration of having to manually snap or bind the string, allowing new players to focus purely on mastering their throwing technique. The build quality is exceptionally durable, utilizing a high-impact, transparent plastic body that can easily survive accidental drops and sidewalk impacts without cracking. It comes pre-strung and perfectly balanced right out of the packaging, delivering a very smooth and predictable spin every single time. It provides a fantastic, confidence-boosting learning curve for kids and adults alike who are just starting out. For anyone looking for a reliable, classic toy that makes learning traditional string tricks completely stress-free, this auto-return yo-yo is an outstanding 5-star value.

My little brother got into yo-yoing a few years ago & wanted his own to practice with. This met that requirement. Works fine if you handle it correctly (don't let it get tangled etc). In stores I've only been able to find Duncan brand, so this is a nice change of pace. Would recommend.

Note that this is a pretty specific yoyo- YES its beginner friendly in a way, just learned how to throw my first sleepers on it, but I think thats all its really meant for. If you're really wanting to get into string tricks, or if you just want something more versatile, there are definitely MUCH better options for this price point (just ordered an Offset Ascent and a Variant, Ascents are like $17 or $18 I think, and are responsive like this. I believe the variant is UNRESPONSIVE, however) Specifically, the clutch system this yoyo uses to sleep is very old and I think kind of unique (this is a 90s yoyo, very different times)- not only do you have to throw the SNOT out of this to make it sleep at all, it's only going to sleep for maybe a few seconds at the most- it will ALWAYS return back to your hand even without pulling it out of sleep. If you're trying to learn some simple tricks with this you're going to NEED some good sleep time, and this is NOT the yoyo for MOST tricks. I will say I'm thankful I've learned how to get some pretty powerful throws with this as my first yoyo though, because you have no other choice if you want it to sleep AT ALL. Really, I'd consider this just a tool to learn to get powerful throws, and I guess a sort of fidget toy too if you're okay just throwing some really short sleepers. I've also heard the clutch on this doesn't take too much to break, though it's worked fine for me for the one day I've been throwing it. Might update this review once I've gotten my other yoyos and have something more universal to compare it to!

This is a great yo-yo for your kids. My son loves using it, and it reminds me of my old Brain yo-yo from when I was growing up. It works exactly the same as the old ones. I'm able to get it to hang down for a reasonable amount of time. If you need more than that, I would recommend getting some PTFE lubricant to get the extra spin time you need for any tricks you plan on doing.

As a parent, I can't say enough good things about the Yomega The Original Brain yoyo. It's been an excellent choice for my child who's just getting into yoyoing and wants to explore this classic skill toy. One of the standout features of the Yomega Brain is its beginner-friendly design. The auto-return feature is a game-changer for kids who are still learning the basics. It ensures that the yoyo comes back to their hand, reducing frustration and helping them build confidence in their skills. This feature alone has made the learning process much smoother for my child. Durability is a big concern for parents, and the Yomega Brain doesn't disappoint. Despite numerous falls and tumbles, it has held up exceptionally well. It's clear that this yoyo is built to withstand the rigors of beginner practice. The design is another plus point. It looks professional and not overly childish, making it suitable for older kids and teenagers as well. This means that the Yomega Brain can grow with your child as they progress in their yoyo journey. I appreciate how this yoyo encourages active play and helps develop hand-eye coordination. It's a great alternative to screen time and video games.

I remember when I little I tried to pick up yoyoing but failed and hated how I could never get it back in my hand or even sleep. Now in College I decided to take it up again. The Yomega Brain is great for the absolute beginner who does not know jack squat of what to do. Let me point out that through it has a clutch system, it's not that yoyo "ball" whatsoever. It still requires work. In fact it took be a few days to do a gravity pull and even to make it sleep. I will say Yomega's videos were extremely helpful. And soon I was able to walk the dog. So they meant be novice tricks but even the expert was a beginner. Sadly yesterday the string snapped. It was easy to put on a new string but then it started making this little noise. Went to their site it has to be lubed. I'm all to eager for when it arrives so I practice, due more tricks, then move up. I really like yoyoing now

I originally sent a two star review. I was frustrated since my gifts hadn’t arrived. As it turned out it was an Amazon problem and all I know is that I was issued a refund with no explanation other than the products I ordered could not be delivered. I reordered the same product and it arrived overnight. The YoYo is very nice and well made. We ordered two and the kids will love them. They are definitely a five star item with extra string and boxed very nicely in styrofoam.

This yo-yo is definitely worth the price. The only thing is I got a defective one because everytime I sleep it the yo-yo yalls apart. I’m hoping the company replaces it. Other than that I love the yo-yo. Definitely would buy again.

I got the Yomega yoyo for my child, and it's been a fantastic choice! The vibrant color is eye-catching, and the yoyo itself is solid and well-made. It works smoothly, making it great for beginners, and the auto-return feature is a nice touch. What I love most is how it takes me back to my own childhood, such a nostalgic toy, but still just as fun today! My child loves it, and I enjoy showing off a few old tricks too, haha.

Wie in meiner Kindheit und nun für meinen Sohn.

Es ún yoyo muy resistente y con un diseño que l hace fácil de utilizar para principiantes. No sé si para usos más avanzados presenta algún problema pero como primer yoyo está muy bien. Satisfecha con la compra.

le jeu est conforme à nos attentes mais la notice explicative pour effectuer des figures est en anglais. Je pensais que tout les produits importés devaient avoir une notice d'utilisation en français !!!

I was suspicious of the quality at first, when I read the reviews. But it’s solid built, feels reliable. The toy is easy to master: my 6yr old is trying tricks past Sleepers the next day after he got it. The only thing it lacks is LED lights. Overall it’s a good toy for beginners. The clutch does the job perfectly here.
