Anybody know any decent mods that can be done on the Duncan imperial, to make it a better looper?

Yeah just like yoyo player said, you could order a ball bearing ehre from [yoyoexpert.com](http://yoyoexpert.com), but I wouldn’t do that. Just run to toys ‘r’ us and get yourself a speed bettle costing around 10$. loops 5x better.

Ok,Thanks. I actually just found this old imperial lying around my house and wasn’t sure if there were any mods for it.

Flat rim it.  
Thats what I did.  
And if you have a bearing laying around, put it in?  
Just experiment with it.
