I’ve eyeballed that thing so many times but never pulled the trigger. How does it play in responsive setup?

Like a rock coming at your face. I recommend Safety Glasses if you go that route.

I think it looks great too, it’s just…once you see it with the shape, you can’t unsee it. This is what the side profile looks like when coloured brown:

Well, I’m glad mine is not brown.

Luckily it doesn’t smell or play like turd. Also that’s a pile of poo not a single turd.

Seriously though I appreciate how unique the profile is in a world full of Vs and Os.

Amen to that. Good implementation of V5 shells is awesome.

I love IMG_6965.

I would love to design a yoyo that replicates the rock feel that the DV888 has. It’s great!

Now I want them to make a brown one.

Please do! I joke about it but for whatever reason I actually do enjoy the Dv888 haha, it was one of my first metals way back when. If you ever do go that route I’d love to test a prototype, cuz I know exactly what you mean, it’s a very distinct rocky feel that nothing else compares to :joy:

Yeah! Rock feel is actually desirable to me. TP know how to make a good rock feeling yoyo too. The Turning Point 2 is a great example.

You know it’s a rock but it’s not a bad rock. I don’t pick mine up OkY cause it’s galaxy and I’m not a fan of the galaxy colorway at all I should try and get over that and just throw it anyway.

I’ve thrown both. Orochi feels much bigger in the hand. It’s wider, floatier. Feels almost oversized.

Batsquatch feels more solid/mid size than the Orochi.

Very different yo-yos.
