Are any of the two better in any way shape or form. Also does the starburst desighn on DM cause the string to wear/rip faster? ???

i’d prefer the DM, x convict is semi responsive and sometimes it will return when im doing a trick, its quite annoying. DM is more unresponsive and heavier, which i like personally, therefore i’d say go for DM 🙂
