Has the blizzard bearing problem been worked out by spintastics?  
The reason I’m asking this is beacause I’ve only heard about it in old threads.  
On the side is the bearing king a plastic tip?

Not aware of the blizzard bearing problem, but I need to tug on the tip of my Trompo Grandes after hard falls on the tip before they spin freely again. Not a huge deal.

My BK came with a plastic tip and the ones for sale appear to as well. It would be cool if there were replacement metal tips; maybe there are.
