Hey everyone, I have had a sharper image yoyo for about 9 months now and haven’t really played with it. What could I do to make it unresponsive? And what other mods could I do? Thanks in advance! ---

Hmm well since I don’t know how the guts look/work, you could either: Get a wider bearing (assuming the stock bearing is a ‘slim’ bearing) Get a longer axle and add spacers Clean the bearing if it’s rather locked up and thus the cause of the responsiveness Take out one side of the response ---

Here is thread about the yoyo from a while back. [Sharper Image yo-yos - General Yo-Yo - YoYoExpert](http://yoyoexpert.com/forums/index.php?topic=43806.0) There aren’t really any mods to make a yoyo like this play better. ---

And that’s to bad there is nothing I can do to it, but I did get it as a gift so I will just probably end up keeping it.
