Ball Bearing in bulk?

Another thing, off topic in a way, but am I the only one who really can’t tell a difference between string centering and flat bearings?

Pretty much. Sorry.

Lol I would like to see some of these people do blind tests, where they dont know what bearing is in the yoyo, and I would bet you money, a lot, that they wouldnt be able to tell you without fail what bearing was in the yoyo, not just by playing it.
Theres just no way.

I wish I could afford terrapin :o

Contact them direct since I’m not sure if any are for sale here.

A friend of mine as well as myself have no issue contacting companies direct for product and/or parts.

I disagree in some cases. If you know a yoyo and how it plays with both types of bearings, you certainly would notice a difference. My Werrd Poo is terrible with a flat bearing in (too unresponsive w/ stock response). There are other cases, however, where one may not be able to tell. Personally, there is a certain feeling with concave bearings, but maybe had I not thrown a yoyo for a long time I probably wouldn’t be able to guess it.

I’m eager to try center trac

I know what you mean. I’ve had KonKaves fix the vibe in some throws for me.

I think I’m the only person in the universe that likes a dry Center-Trac, like honestly, in my Ava it feels absolutely heavenly. But maybe that’s just because it’s an Ava… it’s deliciously decadent though.

Anywho, to keep to the topic, I’d recommend trying to speak to YoyoStores, or find a company near your home that happens to sell bearings, and put in an order.

I agree. Hate to say it (sort of, not really) but I’ve really begun to like Center Tracs! It has nothing to do with the string centering either, I just think they spin really well! Same with 10-balls. Both are great in my opinion

Don’t worry, I don’t feel any difference either.
A straight throw will keep the yoyo relatively centered due to the forces acting on it. It’s just physics. And most of my combos aren’t long enough to require a spin time of longer than 30 seconds to a minute anyway, so these $30 bearings are just silly to me. I got a ceramic kk when I first started thinking it would be the bees knees, but I was disappointed shortly thereafter. The string is going to rub the walls anyway when you’re doing tricks, so I don’t know why everyone’s so adamant on having their string dead center when they throw.

I ordered 100 bearings last week should arrive in a couple days. 10 ball concave and grooved. I’m going to put them in all my yoyos and sell the rest on the bst for cheap. Of anyone is interested hit me up.
