Has anyone tried putting heavy O-rings in the rim of a DMII? ---

I have heard of it on the outside caps. Adds weight, obviously. Can cause vibe though. ---

You’re kidding, right? YYJ Dark Magic II Stats: Diameter: 56.13 mm / 2.21 inches Width: 41.4 mm / 1.63 inches Gap Width (mm/in) : Narrow Bearing: 3.00 mm / .12 inches Speed Bearing: 4.95 mm / .19 inches Response System: Silicone O-Ring Compatible with Slim Pad CBC/K-Pad Response Weight: 69 grams Bearing Size: Size C (.250 x .500 x .187) YYJ Speed Bearing Diameter: 50.0 mm / 1.96 inches Width: 39.0 mm / 1.54 inches Weight: 65 grams Response: CBC Slim Pad by Central Bearing Co. Bearing Size: CBC SPEC Bearing Size C (.250 x .500 x .187) That’s like me switching from my Gorylla or ENEME to my Atmosphere. The Atmosphere is heavier. I don’t see why it feels lighter. ---

I hear what your saying. The Yuuki stat says its actually LIGHTER than the dmII. It FEELS heavier to me. Now I need a scale. Well whatever the weight is, look at the DMII compared to “Over Haul”, but thats not the issue, If I add rings to the DMII and like the play better that would be a GOOD THING regardless of the comparison. ;D ---

Except for me. I’m an oddball. Whatever plays better is what I like. I mean, none of my yoyos have a ridiculous amount of things in common. All of them have a 3mm if you put them smallest to largerst. But, you can try and see if you like it. I just didn’t get what you meant :wink: ---
