Hi guys Im new to this website but I wanted to ask a question.Why is my Yoyo wobbly?The yoyo is Magic yoyo’s k7. I think its not because of my throw since I have been throwing it for a long time.Everytime I try to switch the bearing to a unresponsive one,it just become wobbly for no reason(the bearing is also from magic yoyo). Could someone help me?

When did you start playing Yoyo? When you rest your finger nail against the Yoyo while it’s wobbling does it smooth out?

it could just be a bad throw. also, like @GTDropKnot said. it could be damage to the yoyo causing permanent vibration.

Yah it’s your throw technique. It takes a while to get a smooth throw. One tip I can give is to let go of the Yoyo before throwing so you’re like slinging the Yoyo out from the string almost like a 2a regen .

oh really? because my other yoyo like K2 crystal, Vosun Zebra, and Fast 201(yoyo factory)wont wobble like that.It (K7)would only wobble if you switch the bearing. with the original bearing that comes with it, it would just act normal.(i cant upload videos so i cant show it)

Maybe time to lube the responsive bearing. Its pretty regular in that style of play, you want that reliable tug return.

Also change your string regularly
