CLYW YETI

Haha

Anyways, the reason Iā€™m asking is because yesterday during the day I tuned it a little by messing with the axle. No loctite or Teflon tape, just using a multi-tool. So last night, I unscrewed it after getting a knot, and after rescrewing it, it vibes like crazy! It is a visible wobble. I tried switching the spacers, switching the axle, and had no luckā€¦Anyone have any recommendations?
EDIT: I messed with the axle a little bit, trying to get the horrible vibe out and when screwing together, it stripped. I didnā€™t put much force into it, and it was the YoYo not the axle. I donā€™t know what to doā€¦I got this YoYo on Wednesday, Iā€™ve had it for less then a week. Iā€™m so disappointed! Maybe this yeti was defective, but I donā€™t know. Should I contact Chris?

Uhhhhhā€¦ For a small fee? Nah jk. But no joke if you ship it to me I will make it dead smooth for you.

I would but mine stripped. :confounded:

I donā€™t know how thatā€™s possible the yoyo threading is brassā€¦ Must have done something major. Just contact Chris I bet heā€™d be able to help you out.

Neither do Iā€¦Iā€™ll contact Chris soon. Or should I contact Andre?

At this point Chris. Andre doesnā€™t have stock to replace the stripped unit.

You can try contacting Chris but to be honest it sounds like you kind of brought this on yourself. I donā€™t think a manufacturer should be responsible if the end user fiddles with and subsequently breaks the yo-yo.

Agreed ^ that is a good but of truth. To buy it and break it you own it. If they covered all the user mistakes then the yeti and other throws price would increase substantially (or the company goes out of business) as someone has to pay that cost and its not the company.

I get that, and if I donā€™t get a working yeti, I will probably buy a new one sometime soon. Iā€™ll see what Chris says.

I wonder why this hasnā€™t been posted yet.

Because that isnā€™t the way it works most of the time.

I tried that my pin broke. On my counter attack I had to break them off with a vice and a hammer. And Iā€™m trying to think. Yeti and Shutter($44.99!), 2 Yetis(Yes I might buy a Yeti over a Shutter I prefer Plastic) or a Cascade? I cant decide  :frowning:

I suspect something wasnā€™t right Iā€™d the pin broke you might have had a flawed pin or had something wrong before even starting the removal process.

Get the Shutter! I had the chance to try one a few days ago, and it is amazing. Crazy good deal for $45.
