KK has nothing to do with the play or anything. :wink:  
Phenomizm plays almost as well as a PHENOM and PHENOM seems to pwn most yoyos’. I’d choose Phenomizm. 🙂

actually kks have improved the smoothness of my throws and made them spin longer and less snaggy, i would say they make a difference.

but yes there is a difference maybe thats you becuase smoothness doesn’t usually come in kk bearings. KK bearings are made the same way as a normal stainless, but that the outer shell is concave shaped to prevent string friction which doesn’t really work. And also one note: Any bearing except for ceramic, won’t increase spintime. They have the same stainless steel balls. 10 ball may be smoother or maybe an AIGR. Even ceramic bearings don’t do much addition to spintime.
