The VsNewton TiWalker’s originally shipped with a flat ceramic… but it locked up on me in the first week. Switched to a regular Crucial Grooved v.2 and the yoyo played way better than with the flat ceramic… ---

Im also wondering if anyone makes anything similar to the ver 1 crcial bearing where its grooved but not kk Terrapin X Chrome X ceramic comes to mind. YoYoExpert C-sized flat ceramics is another. That’s all I can come up with. If you’re looking for a grooved, consider the Trifecta. Less concave than a Crucial, but still not flat. It’s not ceramic either. ---

Most first time TX wing buyers think I sent them the wrong bearing, they look flat and they play like a flat bearing, except the string layers stay centered. ---

I do special Wing cut beefcake bearings for the 4xl. Gets rid of that string snagging groove. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/6/e/9/6e932dfa0f95c8107eaac11071d9bf8cba460ea7.jpeg) ---

You’re just making me have to pad my order larger… You’re killing me! I need two of those(I have a TFL and 4XL), and 2 hubstack bearing kits and might as well order another pair of wing cuts at the same time! ---

I do them special order in S/C ceramic or steel, not to many so I don’t list them. They spin longer then regular beefcake because you don’t get the torsional force causes by the string in the notch. Yes PM me…
