I’m new again here on forums. Just fell back into yo-yos again. Looking for response recommendation for my Rec Rev Octave 3 gen I believe it is.  
Thank you

You need new pads. General yo thick hats should do the trick, they’re on yoyoexpert. Also, that is a first gen oktave.

Cool. Thank you. I had forgot about the yo being first gen. I’ve had it a long time and just returned back to yoyoing.
