I prefer to stay with stock response, so in this case dif-pads.  [Dif-E-Yo DIF Pads – YoYoExpert](http://shop.yoyoexpert.com/product/195/Dif-E-Yo-DIF-Pads) You’ll want .555 pads, looks like YYE are out of the “thinner” ones but looking at pics I think the Bone Chip shipped with thick pads anyway. ---

^^It’s true, though not with 50/50 string, which is what Frank Difeo recommends using with them. Another option that used to be popular for folks who wanted to use 100% poly string was to use one Dif pad and one pad with more grippyness. ---

thats the problem I am having, the dif pads dont give me tight binds or solid spins. I have also tried duncan silicone stickers. They are a little better but still not good. I dont know what other options I have??? ---

Diff pads w/slick 6 string. [Dif-e-yo tips & recommendations](http://dif-e-yo.com/Tech%20Tips.htm) Rubbing the pads down with a cloth to clean them helps as well. A little lighter fluid helps. ---
