Yoyos are classified by shape and the 3 are: 1) "Classic", also known as "Imperial" - These have been around the longest and include the Duncan 'Imperial', Duncan 'Speed Beetle', and the Team Losi 'Da Bomb'. They are best for looping tricks. 2) "Butterfly" - These are probably the most popular today and include the Duncan 'Butterfly', Henry's 'Viper', and Yoyojam 'Spinmaster'. They are best for string tricks and long spin or "sleep" times. Really complicated string tricks are almost always performed using a butterfly shaped yoyo. Butterflies are not considered to be the best starter yoyos. 3) "Modified" - These have rounded edges and are a good compromise between imperial and butterfly shapes. Good examples are the Duncan 'ProYo', Yomega 'Fireball', and the Spintastics 'Technic'. They loop well and are better than the imperial for string tricks. The modified shape is also considered to be a great beginners yoyo. Many other factors come into play such as materials, axel construction, weight, size, etc, but these are the 3 shapes, or "types" of almost all serious yoyos.
