Looping yoyo questions

General Yo-Yo

Hey guys, I just got 2 Loop 720’s for Christmas today! ;D

I have a few questions…Are looping yoyos supposed to sleep, because mine do…Also, I noticed that when I spin the bearing on both yoyo’s one spins freely while the other doesn’t spin at all. I also noticed that when you remove the bearing out of one of the Loop 720’s there is something attached to the bearing. It looks like it goes in the slot first because with my other Loop 720 when I pull the bearing out, the object isn’t connected to the bearing but rather it stays there in the slot. What is the correct position for the bearing and the other object?

Note: The bearing that spins freely is the yoyo with the object connected to the bearing.

I’m not sure what this piece you’re talking about is, but it sounds like a spacer. (?) If so, then it should probably be there.

Yes 2a yoyos are supposed to sleep, but be very responsive. Otherwise Tangler would be impossible.

I see, I believe it is a spacer, I have seen one before. So, since the spacer is supposed to be connected tot he bearing, the other yoyo must be too. The spacer is in the bearing slot beneath where the actual bearing is, are there any suggestions for taking it out of there?

Either pliers if you can grab it, or get a small screwdriver or bolt and stick it in the hole of the spacer. Push the screwdriver or bolt one way and pull it out to sort of pry it out of the hole.

Alright, just in case, this is what it looks like. In the picture to the left is the bearing with the spacer attached to the bearing, to the right is the other Loop 720 with it’s spacer stuck in the slot.

yup that is a spacer. You can leave it in if you want, or you can pry it out with anything that will fit in that hole.

There is no difference in play actually, one is just slightly quieter than the other one, the quieter one is the one with the spacer in side the slot.

I have a question. What do you think of the 720’s? I’ve been thinking about getting some looping yo-yos and these seem like good ones. also what is this S.O.S. response system exactly? because it sounds like an amazing concept.

p.s. sorry i can’t help you with the problem, but it sounds like you may have sorted it out anyway
