Hey guys I’m just wondering if you could SPR an X-con. I thought you could if you use the kid of tool to recess FHZ’s but use it to get rid of the boundaries in the bearing seat and put a certain size of SPR in the X-con. Could that work? ---

You’d need quite the modding skills. But it is posible. ---

better question… why would you want to? It has absolutely no need for a new bearing seat… or more wobble. Kyle ---

Well gap has little to do with spin time. Its the bearing and the rim weight of the yoyo and the characteristic of your throw. ---

> [@icthus](#): > > Well gap has little to do with spin time. Its the bearing and the rim weight of the yoyo and the characteristic of your throw. Well yes I know that and my throw is consistent but if you SPR’d it so the bearing wouldn’t be sitting in the bearing seat, wouldn’t that make the gap bigger? ---

It won’t make your gap wider, it won’t make your yoyo spin longer… in fact you’re actually working backwards as you’d be adding more center weight, which is bad when you want extremely long spins. Kyle ---
