What do Hubstacks do? What are they for? Do I really need them when I get an all metal yoyo? Thanks ---

Hubstacks are bearings at the side of a yoyo with something you can grab. This makes the player able to literally grab the yoyo by its sides. You don’t “need” hubstacks when you buy a metal yoyo. They are just for fun and you don’t see them in play at a lot of professional performances. ---

What all can you do with them? (I know what they are and I’ve seen them, but I just don’t know what they’re goo for) ---

You can grab them while the yoyo is spinning. You can pull start the yoyo aswell. ---

Add a meteor in there, there is an axle hole there, same size as the axiom. Just have to remove the caps first.
