It dings it like anything else. That’s why you need to start 5A with a cheap plastic like a FHZ, and when you get better you can silicone it, and it’s good enough to win worlds 5A with silicone and some mods. 😛 Remember: CHEAP PLASTICS TO START OUT WITH!!! ---

Yeah, everyone gets dings on their yoyo from 5A. Even professionals like Tyler Severance. Like when I was at the BAC, I saw Tyler hanging out. He was just chilling and hanging out throwing some 5A, and then he dropped his 2010 Severe just when I was walking by him. So I picked it up for him (such an honor!!!) and discovered for the first time that one of the 2010 Severe colorways was wavelength, and then I handed it back to him, and he said thanks to me, and just kept throwing. ---

It when you hit your yoyo on the ground and it creates a mark, and makes a dinging sound. It’s a common word. ---
