Metal Vs Plastic

I think most yoyos made today are made from metal just because people think that because they are a little more expensive that they are inherently better then plastic yoyos, although i think it is a little bit more complicated then that. The material of the yoyo doesn't necessarily make you good or bad at performing tricks , just in the same sense that if i write with a dollar pen and then write something with a $100 dollar metal pen my handwriting will still be shat. The metal pen for that price may make my handwriting looks a little less like shat, by adding glitter or something, but in the end with both material my handwriting will still be shat. While a pen and a yoyo are two different things, i think the same idea applies to this as well. If you are bad with a plastic yoyo you are most likely bad with a metal yoyo, and if you are good with a metal one you are most likely good with a plastic one.

Although if your just starting off i would recommend that you get a plastic one because hitting yourself in the head with a big fast moving clunk off metal is not something you would want to do. Unless u want to look like this kid.
