its probably the bearing or the responce. give the bearing a quick clean and it should be fine.

Hehe, that’s actually one of my favorite tricks. The trouble is that the yo-yo has to be a little responsive for it to work. Cleaning the bearing and the bearing seat should do the trick.

lube does not make it unresponsive. Infact, if you add enough it’ll go responsive. No matter what oil it is.
