Okay i’ve been playing with my sunset for a while now and i’m kind of annoyed with the response system I was thinking about siliconeing it but idk if thats a good idea. The good things that i predict is i dont have to adjusts the gap but idk if it shot back up or come up if i tug it. So which do you prefer:O-ring or silicone on a sunset Is it smart to do or up to my preference. If you tried it tell me your opinion on it ^^ Thank you ---

> [@DanielBG](#): > > o-ring is better than silicone for looping Wrong. In spite of the fact that silicone is often used in unresponsive yoyoing, silicone doesn’t equal unresponsive. Looping with silicone works well. I personally LOVE it in my Sunsets. Can’t stand o-rings in those things. ---
