So my Yuuksta has a slight wobble vibe, but the axle looks fine. Anyways, I’m really upset right now, and what can I do to get rid of the wobble vibe? And sorry if this is in the wrong section.

Try throwing a sleeper, while it sleeps just put your finger slightly against the yoyo until the vibe goes away, if the vibe does not go away or starts again, your axle is most likely bent, if not then your throw is crooked. Hope this helps.

Your axle might still be bent even if you cannot see it. The bent axle could be due to dings. If you did not ding it at all, then it might have natural vibe. If so, you cannot really do anything about it.

Take out your axle. Then, roll it on a flat surface. If it rolls evenly, it’s fine, but if not, it’s bent. If it’s fine, try changing your bearing.

as Saldoom said, wrap a couple layers of teflon tape around the axle. This should stop the axle from shaking/rattling around where it screws into. i had to do this on all 3 of my TFL’s and even the G5 I used to have.  
It works.

Yes, I did that. I wouldn’t make this thread if I didn’t check that, one side is shaking.

if one side is shaking, the axle is most likely bent. Did it vibe like this out of the box?
