YoYoFactory X YoYoExpert Worlds Japan Pack! **SPOILER ALERT**

So, what was the accessory, the bearing? That’s not as exciting as I thought it would be.

Yes, it’s some new version I think, but I’m not sure what it’s called. :-\

Have you played it yet?

Might be a ceramic.

But, how does it play?

I’m not sure. I just played what was already in the yo-yo, which looks like a CT. The second bearing looks like a CT to me too, and it looks the same as what’s in the yo-yo already. I haven’t deshielded either of them, and I’m waiting for someone else to do it. ;D

:smiley:

It plays great, but I’ve never tried a ceramic to know the difference. :-\

Just De-Shielded it. Looks to be a basic 8-Ball with a pretty decent casing of the balls inside the outer shell of the bearing. I believe it’s a ceramic, from the Terrapin cerramic I had, it’s about the same quality. Little bit less spin time out of the CT-X(c). But it’s a significant upgrade from the first CT-X. Much better spin time and break in time. I may consider buying a few more of them when they drop. I’m very picky about my bearings though, and it gets my thumbs up :smiley:

Thanks ZC! I put a drop of lube in it, am I still good? :o :smiley:

The mystery metal is a metal Replay?..

Hahahahaha!

Maybe YYE or YYF will chime in eventually and let us know what the bearing is?

Only info we have on the bearing is that it’s their new formula Center Trac. It’s machined with higher tolerances and seems to play smoother and spin a little longer. Not sure if there’s any other differences, but it feels similar to the NSK bearings i’ve played, so i’m definitely a fan!

Is this what is in the 2 yoyo’s in the package?

No it’s the “new improved accessory”.

Personally I’m happy to be recieving another bearing. I’m always in need of them.

Just received mine in the mail. 45 bones well spent.

Now to get my order done before the free shipping offer ends.

Loving the Metal Replay, very smooth and lighter than the plastic version which I found a touch heavy. If I had to find something to complain about…um, the bag isn’t as nice as last year :wink:

Got mine today. Really impressed with the stuff inside.

The Metal Replay…it’s really a great throw! I put in the upgraded bearing and it definitely feels much smoother and longer spinning.

Clear Replay looks good but it’s got a little more vibe than my other Replays…I actually flipped the bearing over as it felt like a mini earthquake out of the package. In the end though $45 was an amazing deal, I would have paid $45 alone just for the metal Replay.

Haven’t gotten mine yet. :frowning:

The bearing in my metal Replay Pro took a bit of breaking in today, if I were more of a meddler, I probably would have switched out the bearing or cleaned it, so I’m glad I’m not quick to do either of those things. Mine plays smooth and does outplay the plastic Replay Pro in my opinion. It feels a little redundant to make the second yoyo a clear Replay Pro plastic, but for $45 no one can really complain. I haven’t stashed the extra bearing in a yoyo yet, but it’s always nice to have extras. I think it’s a neat idea and I’m excited to continue playing the metal Replay Pro.
