The result of a long-time mission: to create a quality METAL yoyo everyone can perform tricks on. Best yoyo for beginners that can be upgraded to pro-level with the simple bearing upgrade kit. In order to accomplish this goal, YoYoFactory® transferred all of the revolutionary technology from our premium metal Yo-Yos into a very simple and comfortable design.

The DV888 is composed of high-grade 6061 aluminum for durable performance, a smooth anodized surface, a half SPEC™ bearing for long spins, and the same silicone pad response for snappy returns to the hand and maintenance-free play.

Whether it’s your first metal Yo-Yo or your go-to Yo-Yo for the next major performance, the DV888™ will not disappoint! Now with the upgraded finger spin cap for doing the DNA.

SHOULD I GET MY CHILD OR MYSELF A METAL YOYO?

NO: If this will be your first yoyo, then probably not. It takes some practice to feel comfortable throwing a yoyo and getting it to do what you want (and not hitting yourself in the hand or face or elsewhere). This metal yoyo is a bit heavier and can really be overwhelming and scary to have a piece of metal on a string flying around you at relatively high speeds. If you have mastered the basics (gravity pull, around the world, man on the trapeze, and forward pass) then this would be a good next step.

YES: If you feel like you have good control of the yoyo and you are not worried about losing control and hitting yourself, this will have a nice feel and can help you continue to improve by giving you long spin times for advanced tricks like the DNA. And it looks and feels great.
