Throw Monkey response and sleep.

General Yo-Yo
#1

I just got my throw monkey in the mail today and I like how smooth it is. But when i try to do some 5a tricks it’s so responsive it just shoots back to my hand. Also the sleep time is terrible…
Are all of them like this or did I get a bad yoyo?
Any advice on how to fix this?

Thanks in advance =)

#2

clean the bearing, put the wide spacers in and silicone it if you can. that should fix it

#3

Okay I’ll try that =) Thank you!

#4

You didn’t get a bad yoyo, they’re all like that.

#5

yeah duncans shoot back like that

#6

Remove the friction stickers and replace with silicone and put in the wide spacers or use shims

#7

get a kk

That’s not completly neccessary. The KK will decrease response, but only if you clean it first or spend a while breaking it in. I’m guessing he’s a begginer, so he won’t be doing too many tricks that require a centering bearing (or something that sleeps as long) for quite a while.

I’m not saying don’t get a KK, I’m just suggesting that maybe you would be happier spending the $15 on a better yoyo instead, like a Lyn Fury or Vilocity.

Hope this helped!
