Anybody know yoyo's?

I need a gift for a friend of mine, did me a nice favor.
He is a pediatrician that always plays with this little yoyo, always complains that it won't do anything. I thought I would get him a "good" one- whatever that means. I was thinking something in the $30-50 range. Probably ball bearing so he can sleep it for a while. He doesn't do any sting tricks or anything. I look online and the choices are overwhelming- how can their be so many different types of yoyo's? Any favorites out there?
Thanks
Gary

You don't have to spend that much. My wife got me a Fireball a few years ago. It's amazing...

I've been using a yomega Fireball since I was a wee lad. I can still wow most folks. Yo-yoing is something of a lost art form. I don't know any young (well younger than me) kids that do it. I prefer a winged yo-yo for string tricks, but the transaxle design makes it a good solid yo-yo without going crazy. I don't like "The Brain" I feel like I don't have control of when the clutch engages.....
