Hey guys,

So I have a DV888 and I got all the responsive tricks down and I’m thinking if upgrading it to either the Horizon or the Shutter. I heard that they are pretty similar and I can’t decide which one to get.

Get a shutter or Shu-ta. Very comfortable and flexible. The horizon isn’t as comfy to hold, but is very stable.

I have the horizon and I agree its not comfortable to hold or catch, however it is stable and easy to land tricks with. Go with the shutter out of the 2.

Shutter out of those 2. I also recommend the YoYofficer Kilter, about as good as the Shutter for $15 less.
