Once upon a time, YYJ made a yoyo called the Black Knight. It was a hybrid response, one side star burst, the other o-ring. I really disliked the star burst and traded it to another guy for his o-ring half. I am now the proud owner of probably the only full o-ring Black Knight. ---

It mostly depends on the bearing seat. If it’s way too tight, when you first unscrew the yoyo it will cause some vibe and hence half swapping will induce vibe. But if it’s like one drop’s just perfect bearing seat, it likely wouldn’t induce any vibe at all ---
