Thank you, I am a little saddened that it only covers Beginner Tricks but it still looks like a spectacular “Starter Kit.” If I was just beginning to throw and was on a tighter budget, I’d probably say this is the kit you want. YoYoFactory makes very High-Quality Products. The Box-Art is also unmatched, the Yo-Yo’s are great and this looks like it comes with plenty of Goodies to boot. ---

Why do the silicone pads protrude out so much? My old Dv888 didn’t have that problem ---

> [@Erik\_kerber](#): > > Why do the silicone pads protrude out so much? My old Dv888 didn’t have that problem They intentionally used thicker pads to make the DV888 more responsive for beginner play right out of the box. The Starter Set comes with an extra set of CBC slim pads and a Large SPEC Bearing to make it fully unresponsive for advanced play as well. ---
