you can use o-rings or k-pads ---

You cant use standard yyj o-rings… I dont think they would fit. Im sure you could go to a hardware store and find a pair that fit for like $1… And K pads work but I notice YYJ silicone recesses are a tad deeper than YYF, so the Kpads are pretty deeply recessed which can make for less powerfull throws and slippy binds… I reccomend going to the hardware store or autoparts store and finding silicone and siliconing the yoyo… [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/a/9/b/a9bd4fc5cd7ecdd909a8b99835526708fef67e29.jpeg "Silicone a Yo-Yo") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgSrKCkETlA) good luck!
