I’ve been doing this too. It started out as putting a little bit of Vaseline in the bearing of the plastic yo-yos I own to quiet it down, but I put in too much one time and it was super fun. It eventually breaks in and becomes unresponsive and quiet, but into then I’m practicing protrusions and other 1A stuff.
