i recently brought the Center Trac Bearing and the KonKave Ceramic Bearing i tried both of them on the YYJ Atmosphere and Dark magic. I feel that they are both good to keep the string in the middle but sometime on the Center Trac Bearing the string slip out. As for performance the KonKave Ceramic Bearing spin much longer on first throw out of the box, the KonKave Ceramic Bearing i use on the Dark Magic proof to be superior to the Center Trac Bearing. In my opinion if you are on a budget you would want to get the Center Trac Bearing. ---

I have a protostar so it came with a center track. I love how it plays. It is much better than a flat bearing imo. I haven’t played with a kk so I can’t really say which I like more. 🙂 ---

It is true that KK’s are better but, I agree if you are on a budget get a Center Trac it is not as good but is better than the stock on most yoyos. ---

Goooo KK!! ;D I personally think people shouldn’t even invest in a center track(IMO). The konkave is the best of the best, especially when it;'s clean! I spun the bearing in the bearing seat and it spun for 32 seconds. ;D ---

As it relates to bearings the inner race is more important that the overall shape. There are chrome plated, 100% stainless steel, hybrid ceramics, 100% ceramic. From there most of them have a connected option, caged option, 8 ball, 10 ball etc. ---

I had a similar experience however I will always buy from Frank. I’ll do you one better and say Frank’s ceramic or a plain Jane flat top ten ball for me. I paid 40$ US for my ceramic, got it at Nats one year from bird in the hand. Good times!
