What yoyo are you using? If it’s a 1a yoyo, your gonna have trouble binding because the gap is so large. If it’s an adjustable gap yyj, try tightening the gap to make it more responsive. Try using the yoyo for 1a, if it’s really unresponsive or semi unresponsive and you don’t have an adjustable gap yoyo, try adding some thick lube.
