Thats the first time I’ve hit anything with my cliff(and it was me), and almost all my throws are mint.

Oh and I’ve fixed the axle problem(thanks MrSquirell), but I still can’t get the bearing out. It’s definitely the bearing cause when I take the yoyo apart and spin the bearing it spins for like 2 seconds.i have a brand new 10 ball, I just need to get this bearing out.

If you are that sure your bearing is that broken and you really just want to replace it with a 10 ball grab the bearing with some pliers and crunch it out of there. I mean, you can obviously try to be gentle and salvage the bearing first, but if that’s posing that much of a problem to you just grab it, crunch it, get it out. It’s just a bearing.

If you’re going to replace the bearing, then don’t worry about breaking it when you try to get it out. But if you can get it out without breaking it, then you should clean it and lube it, even if you already did.

Here is a video to help you remove the bearing.
