I recently got a small duncan yoyo off of amazon and noticed that it isn’t responding very well. I was wondering if anyone here might possibly know how to fix that problem, whether make it more or less responsive. It uses a starburst response system if that helps.

Maybe a thicker string or try double looping around the axle

Thats the gimmick. Small and flawed. Return it homie.

Ohh these are funny. Try micro yoyo string like for the mighty flea. It’s counter intuitive but the smaller string winds better

Or whatever your thinnest string is. Thin looping string works too or just kitty thin or whatever but thinner the better

Picture for reference

If that’s still not enough a little bit of chapstick on the loop around the axle will add some response like lube would

Double loop works too but usually makes it come back too quick

I have Duncan’s tiny Imperial version. Cute and fun!

I enjoy all of my tiny/mini throws.
