What’s its problem often if it’s not balanced you can tune them by taking out the hex nut and turning it and re inserting it put it back together and see how that plays if still viby then do it again. If it’s too responsive you can shim the wood axle and if it’s not responsive enough you can take sand paper and sand the axle down a smidge till it responds the way you want. It’s tedious but you can tune the no jive to near perfection in most cases. I get however why @edhaponik took a while to go through the random halves he got from tk a while back to make good pairs ---

Balanced string torsion is key I have been finding with mine. Also I need to ”warm it up” I use YYE 100%cotton on mine, touch of chapstick I’m no @edhaponik tho, as we know, he is the No Jive whisperer lol ---

In a pinch you can add turbo disks, usually one on one side is enough I feel like there’s a video out there on ways to tune a no jive ---

That will have enough oomph to get you into some responsive string tricks and be light enough to respond, regenerate, and flip pretty easily. It’s been posted before, but in terms of trick content, here’s some of the stuff I’ve been a part of in effort to help people learn about throwing fixed/responsive. Hope some of it’s useful.
