I absolutely love all o my One Drop Yoyo’s. the Side Effect system is a huge reason why. I am convinced that if tried on and didn’t like it then you did not try it with the right Side Effects, bearing, or string. By adjusting these variables you can create many different combinations and drastically or subtlety alter the experience of the throw. It is as fun for me to tune the yoyo as it is to throw it. 🙂 I want to encourage you guys to play around with changing out and mixing various combinations. The only downside is that once you start you are going to want to try them all! ---

I can’t agree more. I absolutely love spending 20 minutes getting the yoyo smooth again after unscrewing it. ---

Ok, one sec, let me get some pictures. Edit: When you put the side with the axle in twist it a half turn one way and a quarter turn the oposite way. With the side with no axle put it in so it is flush with the bearing post seat thingy, (pictures will explain). And then screw together so that it self seats itself. It may take longer to screw together. My code 2 is pretty beat, but i once got it smooth with this method, but my benchmark is very smooth ATM. ---

In this case, you got very lucky, sometimes you’ll come across a side effect YoYo that doesn’t need tuning, have had a few in my experience. ---
