The VK is good, but there are some rants on it. They say the gap is too small, and it is overall way too round.

Maybe overall he thinks its great, but when he said, “… I did hear things about it,” he means there was some minor errors, as he said in his initial post. I don’t know.

Find out your preference:

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?

In my opinion, the SuperStar is the best. Dead smooth, well-worthy of the money.

Honestly, there’s nothing a VK, Superstar, or DNA can do that an 888 can’t.

Woah, chill.

Nobody was telling you not to get a new yoyo. If you’re talking about me, all I said was:

What’s wrong with that? I’m just wanted to make sure you knew that before you went and got another yoyo and expected it to be “better” or something. If someone could point out what I did wrong, that would be nice.

I apologize if I offended you somehow. I think this was just a big misunderstanding, so we can just leave it behind us now.
