Hey everyone. I’m swapping out some side effects and when I put my yo-yo back together, there’s a bit of vibe. Any tips for tuning that out? I don’t want to over tighten, but I want everything to fit together right.

Just crank the yoyo together. They will slip before they over tighten. People told me the same thing and I was super skeptical. I half cried while I did it but it worked well :wink:

Don’t worry about it, you won’t strip a side effect yo-yo. Just crank it tight and it should throw smooth.
