Yeah, suction cups. But if you take them out, it’s going to weigh a lot less.

As alternatives to the other ways, if you want to remove caps like a man either

1. stab the caps with a knife and crowbar them out

2. Install rim protectors on your severe, then smash the yoyo on your wall

3. If you are a real man, do #2 without rim protectors

So they came out OK? And also since you bought the capped 2010 Severe, it weighs for grams less without the caps, and a capless 2010 Severe weighs the same weight as you Severe 2010 with caps. Just to let you know. :wink:
