I need a way to “kill” a friction sticker. If i take both out, then its ultra slippy, but with one in, it plays responsive. Btw im using a duncan mosquito that i added weight to. Dont think that means anything but might as well put it out there.

Let me rephrase, is it possible to scrape away at a friction sticker with an exacto knife to make it less responsive?

I bought a mosquito and put the bearing and axle from my YYF Velocity that I never played so now it is beefcaked. I am gonna get some weight to put in it. Once you open that gap the stickers aren’t a problem
