By “hubbing,” do you mean hubstacking? ---

No, I’m pretty sure they’re actually different choices. Anyhow, if you mean hubstacking, you don’t glue in anything… ---

You can have a modder hubstack it for you. Basically a modder will put the yoyo on a lathe and cut away some of the hub to either fit a bearing directly on the hub, or he will cut OFF the hub and put in a hubstack kit. I’d do it (I’m a modder), but I don’t do mods for people out of the state I live in yet. ---

Why would you want to, anyways? There are no real advantages to it. Besides my few tricks that involve them, but their just fun for the moment. ---

I’d do it (I’m a modder), but I don’t do mods for people out of the state I live in yet. Does that mean the modder has to be a guy? 😃 But honestly, you really don’t need hubs that much. I bought the synergy caps, but I don’t use them too much. I just like the extra weight 😛 _It might be better just to buy a PGM, mods would probably cost that much, and you would get a new yoyo too! 🙂_ ---

But I only do within my state. ---

Yeah, if you want a stacked yo-yo for a cheap price go for the Plastic Grind Machine. It’s plastic, just like the legacy, and it requires a bind, just like the legacy. Get a PGM.
