not that great spin times. very smooth. 888x is like a rock on a string though. i need to force it to do the right motion. it doesn’t respond very well to my actions.

very smooth though. nice grinds. hubstacks are fun.

did i mention SMOOTH

My second metal was an 888 truly an amazing yoyo and the 888x blew my mind…they’re smooth small and agile

Wait what? Are the differences in the yearly 888 revisions really _that_ extreme?

They all play really well. I can’t say there is as much of a difference as @DYonch has noticed. The 07’s though do have a different feel. Can’t really put my finger on it but you can tell when you play one.

How are the two different? I’ve never played with either so I can’t answer that question.
