My crucial yoyo just had its response pads get all sticky and pull out the bearing seat thing crucial has (sorry I forgot the name) so i just took them out. Will this be fine? ---

Mostly. You’ll want to replace the pads or contact YYE to find a suitable replacement pad. I think(and I could be wrong) that the place for the response pads is too shallow to use flowable silicone. So, other than you’ll have a tough time returning the yoyo back to you, it should be otherwise fine. Response pads/systems are meant to wear down and be replaced. ---

Contact yoyoexpert, he will be able to tell what other pads will fit. No wait, I checked that other site and they have them in stock. ---

Will this be fine? So tell us how does it work w/o a response system? Most yoyos need the response system to impart spin to the body when thrown. Without response, the yoyo will literally fall down the string w/o spinning. ---

You can try Black Kentaro Friction Seats (Kimu Pads) ive never used them but i have read other people who have replaced their g5+ with ghost pads with them so i think they would work ---

Without response, the yoyo will literally fall down the string w/o spinning. Yeah it kinda just rolls off the string. It is not very functional. ---

You can fill the SPR in with silicone. You need the SPR in the yoyo because it also acts as a bearing seat. Not to mention a yoyo will not bind without some sort of response system…the SPR IS the response system.! ---

I realize that. I’m not trying to be disrespectful or take away business from Andre’s storefront. To be honest I prefer this store (even in light of recent events that affected few of us) to any other. I’ve edited my previous post…
