I wouldn’t.

You can’t get them back in, if you can… it must be VERY hard.

But use the back of a hammer (The side you use to take out stuck nails) and use it as a lever to pop them out.

It wouldn’t be exactly and it might cause a wobble.

Why are you interested?

Practice.

It’s not the yo-yo it’s the throw.

Then i would recommend getting or using a different yo-yo, or just keep practicing and you’ll get it.

Yeah. I can Thumb Grind with yoyos with caps no problem. Just balance it. Grinding with caps in my opinion is more fun because it is bouncy and can balance on the middle of the cap. :wink:

Just get the yoyo leaning twards you and grinding is easier… Why drop all the weight? You’ll have lower spin times so you’r thumbgrinds would probably be just as bad…

BUT it you have two and for some reason you REALLY need to defile a great work of art (Which you dont) I’d reccomend sticking a strong screw driver into the center hole and prying the ring off… I have a feeling you’ll be dissapointed…
