Blues are actually one of the colors that tend to underperform in general funnily enough ---

I was wondering about that exact thing – which colors perform best/worst in general? The colorway I’m affectionately calling “clown vomit” (too lazy to look up the real name) sold out before anything else – and I was like, who’s buying that… I always go for black; boring perhaps, but a true classic. :wink: But wow, these things moved fast! They’ll be sold out real soon… congrats to those who got one, and Markmont. ---

I just got mine (well, both of them as I bought a black to throw and a black/white fade to hold). It’s super smooth and really fun to throw. Kudos @Markmont !!! ---

Actually … while I’m here. @Markmont or anyone else playing the new one … mine seems to play semi-responsive, and I’m wondering (since I’m new to Yoyo) … is this maybe my string is too thick (playing string lab)? The new yoyo with brand new response pads will take time to “break-in” if you will … Just curious. The Magnum Opus is pretty dope tho! Cheers, Dale ---

Clean or swap the bearing out. Sometimes even newer bearing go responsive quickly. ---

I’ve had that experience with the OD bearings; don’t add too much lube. I did that and messed it up. Try adding only a very small amount to one side and then throw it a bunch of times as fast as possible. What I was seeing looked like this: I would throw the yoyo, and if I bounced it up to about head height, I would see the string start to bind/wrap and it would snap back to my hand when it got up to the apex of the bounce. Also, I tried to pick the yoyo up with a claw grip and as soon as I picked the yoyo up the string would bind/wrap. It’s now been a few weeks since I saw that problem, and it seems to have gone away completely. I discovered this when I was trying to learn some unresponsive stop ‘n’ go tricks from DocPop. ---

Yeah, I’ll address the bearing. I also thought it might be because I’m playing a plutonium string that feels thick, not sure if that would contribute to the problem? Again, I’m very new to all of this.
