Is the overall shape/size similar to that of the 888
also does it play similar to the 888?
please answer because this will help my decision between 888, m1, and L3

The shape is almost exactly the same as a DV8, and I’m sure it plays great.

excellent, because i’m looking for a yoyo of about that size, sometimes the largeness of the DM can be frustrating.

slightly larger diameter, looks likes a project by one drop, and about 66 grams in weight. I got to try this yo-yo at PNWR in feb. I didn’t get one.
