The dv888 is a good yoyo. I previously owned one and traded it. It isnt exactly the most comfortable of all yoyos as it isnt easy to catch. The c13 I have played withe before and its a light yoyo and small. Its pretty good from what I have played with. I would go with either one this is a tought decision but personally, dv888 ---

Out opinion doesn’t matter, yours does. I would go for the Dv888, its shape is easier to get use to, the Catch 13 has a very angular shape, and not many people may like it. But answer these questions so we know what you like in a more specific way: 1. What size do you prefer? (Big, small, medium, etc) 2. What shape do you prefer? (Be specific: Round Butterfly, Flat Rims, pointy shape, H-Shape) 3. What response do you prefer? (Silicone, O-Ring, Hybrid, Pad, etc) 4. Do you like to mod/maintain it? 5. What weight is ideal to you? 6. Does color matter? 7. How does your style relate to the yoyo? (What kind of tricks do you like to do? Fast? Technical? Smooth? Slacks?) 8. What is your price range? 9. What is your skill level? ---

Personally i love the Dv888, i’ve played with both the frantic, hetic, and the c13. The c13, i feel has a weird shape, but can catch string easily and could take lots of layers of string. However i prefer the DV888 over the c13 because it plays much smoother and is on the heavier side (66g, i think?). Also i love the way it looks and the anodization is excellent, good for thumb grinds. 8) bottom line though, 😛 its up to you if you like a yoyo that is small or large, ugly or nice, and feel. ---
