I don’t plan on beefcaking a yoyo or getting a yoyo thats is beefcaked, but I do have a question about it. Would the string ever fall in between the bearings onto the axle during play?

The bearings are tight enough together so it isn’t usually a problem. If the yoyo loosens during play then it may happen.

I beefcaked my FHZ with spacers from my Bee and it seemed like all was well until I threw it. I don’t know exactly how to describe it, but the best I can say is that it won’t throw down smoothly and often goes under my throwhand behind me.

The gap is too wide.

Thanks for the answer. I’m going to need to find some narrower spacers or sand some down. Is there a smaller Duncan spacer than the Bee? I think the Mosquito has the same size.

Not sure but the FHZ spacers look like #10 washers. You could just take it to the hardware store and find a washer that fits. You are talking spacers/washers, not the bearing seat piece, is that correct?
