The Rewind x Sus Viper Remix wings are interchangeable with the Rewind x Sus Newt. So you can get a Newt and add Viper Remix wings to your order. The hubs are shaped somewhat differently but shouldn’t adversely affect 4A usage.

Offstring yoyos generally have a tug response, and the Viper Remix does, so you will also want a “slim”/responsive bearing to replace the unresponsive bearing in the Newt. You may want a thick/responsive lube to lube the bearing, if the slim width does not provide sufficient response.

You could also use the Newt with the rims it comes with but you’ll still want it responsive.

I have a pair of newts and don’t know how they would play with a slim bearing but they are super awesome for 3a in the house when my wife is home. You might need a shorter axle if you change the bearings. Also could try to just keep the bearings the same and try thick lube for response. Idk though you probably want a viper remix though like would just be better for 4a like more specialized for the style. Maybe set up a looking for topic LF in buy sell trade.

Edit i didn’t realize the wings were compatible like sleeperhit said above ooops i missed that so uh yeah worth a shot probably maybe idk

I have a Viper Remix (that I am not willing to part with). I just want to mention, that while it is quieter and a little less potentially destructive than my other 4A yoyo, it still has a decent amount of weight to it and the rings are more firm than I had expected. So there’s still some slap and thud noises as it hits the floor. And it still can knock things over.

I am not saying not to get one if you can find it. It’s definitely better for indoors, but I wouldn’t want go to great lengths to obtain one, expecting it to be very squishy, and be disappointed. (Also, I drop mine a LOT, so skill might be a factor.)

4A yoyos want the longer spin provided from a full size C bearing. The Viper Remix uses a full size C bearing that sits recessed into each half of the yoyo to have a smaller gap. You do not want offstring yoyos to be responsive. If anything it’s become fairly common to use centering bearings in modern comp offstring yoyos now instead of just staying with the flat so they’re even less prone to snags.

You _can_ play offstring just fine with any yoyo with a clean slim C bearing, but you’ll only make your life much harder.

I have a pair of Newts I use for 3A and I like them a lot, but I would never even consider using them for 4A unless I truly had no other option.

Viper remix is in stock on the yjyoyo website for 65,000 Korean Won which is about $47. The silver body with pink rim, silver body with blue rim, and black body with lime green rim colourways are available.

I recommend you email him at [vgb824@naver.com](mailto:vgb824@naver.com) since you’re purchasing from overseas. Shipping will likely be around 20-25 bucks or so.

For science! (Ok, it needs more replicates, but I’ve got things to do today.) The difference over carpet is not very noticeable, but the hard flooring shows that the Viper Remix’s softer rims do deaden its movement.
