Yoyu also said something about being your only metal. I would go with the 5 star because of the limited run. It should work pretty well for the bst. As many people have told you, once you throw the 5star down you never wanna let go.

I won a Torrent at Maryland States and I thought it was garbage.  The bearing was rusted, the gap was to big, the yoyo was to big, and the lazering sucked. 

I was at yoyonation this weekend and tried the 5-Star,  It was amazing. Nice bead blasted finish, nice over all feel, and played too smooth.  I tried a lot of yoyos while I was there and I can honestly say this one was one of the best.

This kinda made me laugh as the Torrent is a little over 1 mm bigger in diameter and width than a Pure....

i wouldn't necessarily say it's 'garbage'.  for a debut yo yo, i think general-yo did a stellar job.

Just to chime in, if I got a brand new yoyo with a rusted bearing and hoorrible laser graphics, I'd be pissed and think it was garbage too. Not because of the yoyo, but a rusted bearing? Come on.

Yeah...but if that yoyo was FREE and played LIKE A BEAST would you feel it was still garbage?  The graphics on the Torrent were far from horrible...if they were anything, they were too plain.  Ernie went conservative...in an attempt to appeal to more people.

This yoyo was Enie's first effort and it was still better than many things coming from companies how have been doing it for years.

Come on.
