The best bearing out there

Whatever bearing is in my yoyo ! Being serious I really enjoy YYF spec bearings, in my opinion they play the best for my needs. Everybody is going to have different opinions.

Keep on throwing - Chris

I can agree from the perspective that too many people(myself included quite some time ago) are looking for a magic solution to improve things. Bearings seem to be a starting point since they are so inexpensive. The next step is the yoyo. Later on(like, an hour after they get the new yoyo) that it’s their throwing of the yoyo that really needed the most improvement. Some things will never change.

I think my position of ā€œfind the bearing that best matches the yoyo for you and your preferencesā€ statement, so I’ll skip that.

Not to defend Terrapin X products, but I’ve found that for the money, the Terrapin X products aren’t costing more than the premium bearings and if not similar, then same or improved performance. In some cases, there have been VAST improvements in performance. I’ve also had great results using Dry Play in my bearings. However, if I’m playing sloppy(likely) or throwing badly(equally likely), ain’t no bearing in the world gonna help me fix that issue!

Yeah, really no best bearinf. Be wary, these things are NOT magical, they won’t improve your yoyos tremendously. I really support Buddha Bearing Co. bearings, they’re cheaper than alot of specialty bearings and play as good (or better) as the others. I got 4 ripple bearings for 20 bucks at BAC.
