I have a Big Yo, and today I noticed that it looks a lot like a DM2. I don’t have a DM2, nor have I thrown one, but I certainly know the shape. Anybody else seen this connection between these throws?

Personally, I think the BigYo much more closely resembles the original Dark Magic.

Just like a marble (DM2) resembles a Basketball (Bigyo)…

Rephrase your question, The SHAPE is similar…

There’s only a finite number of workable yoyo designs. That shape just happens to be very common because it works so well.

There’s many other yoyos that share the shape.
