I’ve been thinking about getting pads from Hollywood Modern and I was wondering two things.

Which pads are best for an unresponsive yoyo? Shore 60?

Does it come with a 30 pads or 30 sets(60pads)?

Reads like 30 total (15 pairs). Type is preference. Black is least responsive. I personally prefer gray shore 40.

It comes with 30 pads if memory serves. I prefer the shore 60 (clear) on narrower-gapped and normal-gapped yoyos with a lot of power. Weaker normal-gapped yoyos and larger gaps get the grey pads.

They are both high-quality and you won’t be disappointed.

Is 4.5-4.6mm gap normal or large?

I bought when clear was the only option and they are fantastic. I need to get more pads and bearings soon when I have some money to toss away at maintenance items

4.6 is starting to get on the wide side but still within normal range personally.

Hello! It’s 30 pads, 15 pairs. I made a blog post about the different kinds of pads on my site (not linking or I’ll get blocked but easy to find). Just navigate to the maintenance blog on my website and click the article about choosing the perfect pad 🙂
