You mean like no bearing and the axle screw is the axle, or you put a bearing blank in? ---

The posts touch, so the string goes around the bearing posts without touching the m3 axle. ---

Hey Ed and YYE – thanks for putting this contest together. It definitely helped me pick up my neglected fixed axle throws and learn some tricks, so despite what happens, I consider myself a winner. In the video, I used a Duncan Butterfly and A-RT Orphan [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/4/4/e/44e601072f1ab5a3a40c3f88aa9288d9995a8c56.jpeg "FAF2022") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4K6cYKyWCKE) ---

I’m so glad i did this early because I just broke my dominant hand last night. There will be no throwing for me for the next short while. ---

Got around to filming my entry last night. In order: Zipper Stalls, Kickflip, Shoot the Moon + Lunar Landing, Bird, Varial, Recapture, Split the Atom. I kind of rushed to get this filmed since I’ve been working on another fixie challenge for the month, so please excuse the sloppiness haha. All were done on a stock Duncan Butterfly. I couldn’t get split the atom last night, and had to record it this morning haha. The starburst on the butterfly is just so aggressive, I had to battle land that. For anybody lurking in this thread who has any mild interest in fixed axle: go pick up a Butterfly! Worst case scenario you spent 5 bucks and had fun learning some new tricks, best case scenario that 5 dollar Butterfly turns into a DeHcade!

The butterfly recommendation is such a good one. Even after being spoiled by a ton of great responsive yoyos, the butterfly is still an amazing player. Also, the ceiling bonk during STM was hilarious lolol ---
