Quiet 5A?

Started 5A a while week or so ago and really loving it. My only qualm is that when counterweight meets throw the TING is very very loud. Dice were the worst, the ultraweight w/ bearing is better but still piercingly loud. Is there something out there like the Ultraweight (which i love) but quieter? or is this just nature of the beast…

The Duncan bouncy ball is pretty silent.

Yeah, the Monkey Weight (as it is officially named), is a rubber ball counterweight. Rubber tends to absorb vibrations, after all.

Duncan Bouncy ball only makes noise when you it the plastic, which is rare

Stop hitting the yo-yo with the weight :slight_smile:

What Nathan said. or try a Monkey Fist counterweight

Like a train on the tracks that Im sitting on, I knew that was coming. :slight_smile:

This exact noise is the main reason why I’m terrified of the butterfly trick. I love it and i can usually get about 10 reps, but when they collide, your ears bleed.

It’s very intense with a ti yoyo^
Have cracked cw’s in half doing butterfly. Well, once.

Whoa
