You get your electrical tape, and your Go West yoyo. Tape the rims, then trim the tape. It really protects the yoyo, and provides no noticeable vibe. I think it should, but is doesn’t. Yeah. ---

I really like how good it looks when spinning… Yay for accidental color coordination. ---

I used duct tape on my PGM and have been throwing Go West all day. Just a thought, how well would an offstring yoyo work for this? ---

For Go West or the tape mod? The tape would be good for adding durability, but it might not need it. Unless you mod an offstring to be unresponsive, they won’t be very good for Go West. I think Azznboya beefcaked his Fiesta Xx with two (YYJ?) slim bearings to make it unresponsive. I just use a taped Alpha Crash. ---

I just use a taped Alpha Crash. Yup! Since the slim YYJ bearings are slightly wider than Half a bearing. 2 of em widened the gap just enough so it’s unresponsive! ---
