Why did you say it’s a YoYoFactory in the original post? And why are their four threads exactly the same???

Yeah, I was wondering this too. Just report it to the mods and they’ll clean it up.

Please figure out what it is. Elsewhere you say it is a YoYoFactory.

Either way, use pliers to tear out the bearing, order a new bearing, sand down the bearing seat to remove the anodizing and you should be fine.

He’s changed the brand a few times already. If he’d just look at it, it would tell him what it is, most likely.

As they said put it in the freezer grab some pliers and take it out. That’s looks like a yyr. Dreadnought maybe…

I don’t know that he did. I looked at it and it looked like a YYF yoyo. It had “Help” for a title so I changed it to “Help - stuck YYF bearing” because of ambiguous titles.

No, in the original post, he said it was a YYF throw. Then he changed his mind and decided it was a King Yo Star.

Yeah, I merged 3 or 4 of these and lost track of what one was the original.
