Coping with pinpricks

Yes, please, Steve, if you wouldn’t mind…

How the leather attaches near the bearing seat would seem to be the most difficult part. Maybe this works best with yoyos that use spacers such as the Freehand Mg.

Id like too see pics as well

I have no problem with dings at all. I play my yo-yos to play them, not to look at them :wink: If they were damaged beyond not playing that would bother me. They also look the same, or maybe even better, while spinning.

:smiley:

I just want to add that my most used yoyo is in mint condition. My second most used has one ding.

I am ambivalent to dings for the most part (until they drastically affect grinds), but if I think about it, I’ve dinged very few of my yoyos myself. I’ve bought several pre-dinged and just didn’t add more dings to them.

Ever since I started playing with a longer string I’m a lot more sympathetic as to how some people get so much damage on their yoyos. I’ve definitely pitched a few yoyos into the ground and let them smack the ground on a failed trick much more frequently, I just don’t play a ton and the vast majority of my play is over carpet.

Bump. Any chance Steve?

Misposted, sorry!

While I’m here, pinpricks never bother me. Yo-yos are meant to be played, and stuff happens to them.

Well right now with my new yoyos from the black friday deals I have kept them mint. I’m still in that stage of trying to preserve them, but if I get them dinged it won’t be a big deal. Although for right now they are my babies :D!
