You should not be afraid to beat up your yoyos unless you plan on making a profit off of them… Which is why I did this: ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/a/4/4/a44c1ae8b33b176ecbbd140f098f4bbee1f0ac2f.jpeg) That’s only one picture, and the damage was pretty terrible all over the rims. That HG material could take a good beating, and my K-os still stayed smooth. I took it to my driveway (or parking lot if you want to be more specific) and starting from walking the dog to chucking it at the ground and then some. [http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs025.snc1/3111\_83540517065\_728732065\_2195061\_3767122\_n.jpg](http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/hs025.snc1/3111_83540517065_728732065_2195061_3767122_n.jpg) This was before I started going nuts with it. By the end both of the rims were pretty much almost raw and I finally learned what burnt ano smelled like. You gotta love having fun with your stuff 😃 ---
