If you are new to this, I wouldn’t suggest modding it yet.

And yes, yo-yoing is the correct term.

There are many, many things you can do. I’ll just list a few.

Silicone  
Satin  
Add shims  
Upgrade bearing

That’s just some of the stuff I could think up of off the top of my head, but there is literally an endless amount of mods you can do if you have the tools for it.

Welcome to the world of yo-yoing. Modds are only limited to the imagination of the person thinking them up. Needless to say but the sky is the limit.
