Buy it. Done. Crisis avoided. I have one. I like it. YYE doesn’t carry bad yoyos. At least not knowingly. Having said that, that doesn’t mean all yoyos are a perfect fit for everyone. You can’t please everyone. ---

Honestly, I was a bit disappointed when I got my Hitman Pro. I was holding expectations for it on the same level as the Dark Magic II, which I was floored by, but when I got it, it kinda came up a little short. It was a fun little knockaround, but I found it unstable, and had a stock vibration that none of the other SolidSpin YoyoJams I have played possessed. It was a first run, and I might have been a rare case, but I certainly didn’t love the yoyo. I really hope I just got a bad one. ---

I’m having this run with undersized yoyos right now. XCon Pro, Hitman Pro, Eneme, Campfire, Gnarwal, other of my smaller yoyos. Comparing the DM2 to the Hitman Pro: I find both are smooth and stable.. The Hitman pro is a grinder’s dream! Those gigantic aluminum rims are meant for grinding. Look how JD plays it. But, in general, going with my preferences, I do like my DM2 more. Both are amazing, both are great. The DM2 is a yoyo that can take you from zero to hero, handling anything you can throw at it(figuratively speaking) and come out fine. The Hitman Pro, despite coming with 2 bearings, excels with the YYJ Speed Bearing, not the slim bearing. It’s not really good for noobs, it’s best if you’re an intermediate or better. Then again, what do I know? I like darn near everything I have a lot. I like variety and mixing it up. My preferences are normally stuff at the top end of the full sized range, regarding diameter. I played the XCon Pro exclusively for 2 solid weeks as it forced me to improve my throw. It’s been a tremendous benefit for me to have done that. Then I started playing the Hitman Pro. It’s different, it’s good in its own way. Keep in mind, it ultimately comes down to preferences. Anyone who is coming to BAC: you can try ANYTHING in my collection. Including my Hitman Pro. ---

I’d personally call the DMII “better”, thoughb I’m almost certain my Hitman Pro was just a fluke.
