Sweet! What you have is what has become commonly known as a Diet BK. It may have started as a Duncan Rip Cord or Bearing King, but the bearing tip makes it a BK and the hole in the cap makes it ā€œDiet.ā€ Hereā€™s a few that Iā€™ve done: ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/d/8/3/d83fe2a9c678e23258381c60acbef55e50dbb489.jpeg) Youā€™ll notice on these I didnā€™t keep the cut very clean, I treat it as more of a quick and dirty way to make the top play better than an aesthetic modā€¦ that and I still have a few things to learn about finishing plastic on a lathe šŸ˜ƒ The mod is pretty easy with a lathe; chuck it up and drill a one inch hole in it with a Forstner bit. If you donā€™t have a lathe, hereā€™s another way to do it: > **[Another Ripcord Drilling Method](http://www.ta0.com/forum/index.php/topic,1343.msg13466.html#msg13466)** > > Another Ripcord Drilling Method When I do it, I also trim down the diameter of the cap so the Duncan Imperial plastic throwing ring fits over it, so I can do stuff like this: [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/9/d/7/9d7a63c06ca3eae2163c2794746091f9ba3c6658.jpeg "Spin Top Trick: ring stuff") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qeyzi9T6X-M) (video was done with a Spintastics Blizzard) ---

Donā€™t worry Mike. Iā€™ll be getting a Neff Top as soon as I can afford one. :] Besides heā€™s the guy that made me want to throw tops. After meeting him at Moyo a few years ago Iā€™ve watched a lot of videos of his. Guy is amazing! I also want one of those tops that are made by that Mexican guy. heard they are expensive but worth the money. Neff had a few at moyo 2 years ago I think. ---

Good lookinā€™ corkscrew! Lots of people _ahemKevinM_ have trouble with getting out of corkscrew. Best advice I have is to practice getting out of merry-go-round because it is basically the same thing; keep it going in a circle and correct the top and when it is close to verticle pop it back up to your hand. The Cuper top is what I had at MOYO in 2010. It is a good top, but Spintasticsā€™s new Quicksilver is plenty good if you like aluminum tops. The plastic cap makes it play a little better than with the old aluminum caps. I hope I didnā€™t blind anybody with my white hobbit feet :-\ ---
