What mods can you do to a protostar? Mine is messed up and destroys my bearings so im prepared to mod it to heck. I really can’t think of any specific purpose, just you know if you could throw your two cents in that would be fine. ---

Almost any mod can be done to almost any yoyo. What do you mean it destroys bearings? ---

I want it. I’d make it a small bearing. ---

That doesn’t sound like a problem with the yo-yo. It sounds more like a problem with lube. ---

I don’t know what happens. I have a yoyoexpert bearing and its absolutely fine broken in and the same lube on all of my bearings in all of my yoyos, and it will just make it responsive and loud.
