I bought the last 2 of those from YYE (not the offstring, still some of those left). I need to tinker more. So far, I’ve only managed to make a Wobble Monster. That 66% Edge Beyond does look pretty darn cool! ---

The highly anticipated @DocPop Weekender A bearing yoyo is here. The A bearing is deshielded and packed full with blue grease and the [CoreCo Pads](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/products/core-co-yoyo-response-pads) make for such a controllable response. One Drop made it so smooth it reminds me of a TK SB-2 on a whole another level. The modern responsive shape makes the current contemporary stall and responsive tricks easier and very consistent, I predict a new progression of trick development resulting from this one, very exciting. ![20190608_121250](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/5/c/3/5c392a785571372d8940924556d83cefef3a5242.jpeg) ![20190608_121341](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/c/3/fc38ea289bece6551b8069f7755b4c92f3b7e056.jpeg) ![20190608_121446](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/0/9/9/099215d59fc700bf1d464be8886d7cf8f0cbdf4e.jpeg) ![20190608_121539](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/c/d/4/cd42c7b77d3c9648722b0ea0ca21c9163f947b10.jpeg) ---

Yes, but, do the fit perfectly in the designated slightly recessed spot on say FHZ or Speed Beetle. I’m so ridiculously anal about these things. I even take the original strings off, set them aside, and put them back later… Thanks in advance ---

Thanks for sharing those rad pics. I’m becoming a convert of the A size bearing and glad you are digging it to. One note, the bearing has a blue rubber shield on it. The grease I use is a clear silicone grease that works its way in and tends to say in there longer than if the shields are left on. ---
