there are a few ways to do it.

1. ignore it. vibe doesn’t matter. just throw.
2. fine tuning only helps reduce vibe a little bit in most cases. basically what you do is put teflon tape on the axle, and very gently screw the yoyo together so it’s dead centered.
3. I’ve heard of people dinging it more. just crazy enough to work, I’d say.

but really what I’d suggest: just ignore it. everything has vibe. as long as it’s not wobbling out of control, you’ll be fine.

If you satin an anodized yoyo you will remove the color. There’s no way around it.
