I've learned so much about yo-yos just by watching all of about two of your guys' videos! I've had the same Yomega Dash for, I don't know, 8 years or so. I've never lubed it (did that today, thanks trumpet valve oil from middle school!), or any kind of maintenance outside of new string. I legit wait until the string snaps to replace it; have a few nicks on my yo-yo because of that. You should make a video on when you should replace your string by the way. I'm pretty casual though. I just pick up yo-yoing for awhile until I can't learn anymore tricks. I always come back though.
@R3dtooth7 i dont own a silenus, but topyo in general, is one of the most under-rated best yoyo companies with actually fair* pricing. the silenus is dope bro, i def. have checked that yoyo out, i wish i had it. the mojo, for 13 bucks outplays all my other plastics and i have about 30. im glad to hear that, i really am. topyo and iyoyo are top contenders!
Perfect timing guys... I'm a fairly new thrower and it was something I've been wondering for a few days. I'm having the odd problem though that sometimes my flairy binds aren't engaging and sometimes they are... I'm sure the technique is the same because it's the first thing I check. The string starts to bind... you can hear and feel it but the yoyo never starts the wind up. I've had the problem with a few of my yoyo's but it should be pads because they're pretty fresh... Same with string... could it be about spin speed?
It could be not spinning fast enough, something to do with the pads, or most likely you are dropping the string to fast. When I was first learning the same thing happened to me. Make sure you lower the string and don't drop it until it has grip on the response pads. If that still doesn't work let me know.
Thanks... A normal bind will work it's just the flair binds... so I'll keep an eye on the string... might be the spin speed too. Thanks for the pointers.
Worked it out... turns out it's the string... once it get a bit worn it won't bind properly anymore... never had the problem previously and could basically use a string until it was dead but now that I'm adding flair in once it's wearing a bit it stops binding... going to swap to kitty string fat or slackies and see if that helps.
I have a problem where my unresponsive yo-yo is responding to binds a little too well so it is becoming responsive. I lubed the bearing and it didn't seem to work. Please help
That’s what brought me to this video! My response pads are just below the rim of where they sit so I think the string rubs against the body of the yo-yo and the friction causes it to bind a little to ambitiously. It’s worth adding that I have never worn response pads out enough to where they need changing. This has only happened to a Dove and a Peregrine, both of which I bought used from a professional yo-yo player. I don’t think most players have the ability to even wear response pads out! An inexpensive fix either way ❤
What should I do if my unresponsive yoyo (Winter solstice) is starting to respond when being pulled up? I've only had it for a week or 2 and I can't get my grinds going because whenever I pull it up to my hand to grind, the string just begins to wind up the yoyo/snag without me doing a bind. This only starting happening about 5 days ago and It's really frustrating and I've tried switching strings and cleaning/lubing my bearing but it just made it worse. It's too responsive is my point. All the videos I could find talk about a yoyo not responding well enough but I can't seem to figure out how to stop it from snagging/responding. HELP!
Hey yotricks! So I was wondering, just for curiosity sake, (and just in case I get the yoyo, which odds are I won't, but who knows) will you guys be getting any new colors/ getting back the green canon yoyo in stock any time soon, if at all? Also, will any new colors be coming to the freehand pro anytime soon, if at all? By the way, I am talking about you guys' site, and speaking of your site, I noticed you guys did a video about the King's Yomen a while back. Are you guys still doing that? Anyways, thank you for any answer you give, and God bless you guys, your site, and anything/anybody else you guys come into contact with! Thanks, Derp. :)
We are going to be getting new Canon colors in soon (including the Mint color), maybe as early as tomorrow if Fedex tracking is accurate. I cannot say about the Freehand Pro. We are still doing The King's Yomen, we had two shows this week ;) Thanks for the encouragement. Perhaps we will meet at a yoyo contest at some point!
You can do it on old yoyos because they have deeper groove for pads but on new yoyos they have a shallower groove which makes the silicone fall out easily
@@yotricks I have a problem where my unresponsive yo-yo is responding to binds a little too well so it is becoming responsive. I lubed the bearing and it didn't seem to work. Please help.
I put on new response pads and my unresponsive yoyo is now responsive (only when I get a very strong throw and give it all the slack of the string, and when I'm doing finger spins, sometimes). I don't know What's wrong or if I missed something in the video.
Changing response pads will not cause this to happen. Most likely the bearing is just a tiny bit responsive. Have you ever lubed it? Also, try changing the string.
I realize that the sage yoyo isn't a metal yoyo so it I'm pretty sure its limited in what it can do 1a yoyo style wise (compared to a metal one). Is there a list of video 1a videos and overall tricks the sage can do?
The Sage can spin for several minutes when it is fitted with the unresponsive bearing from the pro pack, as long as you have a straight and powerful throw.
Do you guys still offer the mint-green Canon? I've been considering getting into 3A, and I like the brightness of that particular Canon, but can't find it on your website.
On all of our product pages we have a recommendation section that tells you what pads fit into the yoyo. yoyotricks.com/shop/yoyo-store/yoyo-brands/yoyofactory/replay-pro-yoyo/
Hey, i have recently bought a Sweets Kendamas Prime Solid Blue Kendama, and after 5 minutes of play after recieving the Kendama, my grip got really sliperry, and i cant get it on Lighthouse anymore, i cant even put it on with my hand! What happend?!?
i just bought new pads 19mm but when they are on the yoyo they are too ,,tall,, i mean they are taller than the circle what they are in and it does not fit in it perfectly, any help?
They seem to be a more grippy response pads. That is why some people call them snaggy, and others like them, because they bind tight. If you are frustrated by your yoyos because you feel that they do not bind tight enough, then they might be worth trying.
For beginners yes and no the good part about it is because it small and you can catch it easily the bad part about it is you could ding the yoyo and scratch it
I've had the space cowboy for about two years, and the response pads keep expanding and pop out! I've done deep cleaning and don't use lube. Even gone as far as buying a new bearing but it still happens. =[
The reason that is happening is because you are getting yoyo lube on the response pads, we recommend removing the bearing from the yoyo before you lube it so theres no risk of getting lube on the response pads :)
Are you lubing the bearing in the yoyo or do you take it out because if you lube the bearing with it in the yoyo then it could react to the pads and make them expand.
WD-40 is a degreaser, which means it is designed to remove lube, not to act as a proper lubricant. It is not a good idea to lube your bearing with WD-40.
Never ever lube your bearing wd40 cause I did that once too with yomega Yo mod green yoyo. If kind of F up my bearing it slep the same just performance isn't good anymore. WD40 is oil lube. Just buy thin or thick lube by real yoyo company, they only cost $5 or $9 OH yea the right what happen is also can hurt your pad if you dont dry your bearing even if it dry it still gonna wear your pad to quick. That why I couldn't play my protostar anymore cause of that wd40
your bearing is playing responsive not un now you understand even I can still play protostar without a response pad but remember that just makes you look stupid.
Some yoyos allow you to put a slim bearing in them instead of a full sized bearing. If the bearing will fit, it will make the yoyo responsive. That being said, most yoyos will not hold a slim bearing because the bearing seat is too tall.
Come on. The yoyo I wanted to buy was the fizz. And the international shipping is 14 dollars and the fizz 10. That is called stealing. Please reduce the price

That's awesome! I've been working with my Sage for a few months now and I have to say, you're in for a great time.
Have you got it??
P Sharma I hope so too! all the string tricks are going to be so much easier XD
You guys are new to yoyo that's cool good luck on learning tricks with that
IDK WHAT SHOULD BE MY UTUBE ACC NAME Thanks!

AngryRasin maybe not enough string got into the gap to make the yoyo bind

Thanks for the encouragement. Perhaps we will meet at a yoyo contest at some point!
Perhaps! Thank you! You guys are great at what you do! God bless!
is ok if I use 100% silicone for my response pads instead of buying them ?
You can do it on old yoyos because they have deeper groove for pads but on new yoyos they have a shallower groove which makes the silicone fall out easily
Nice timing 👍🏻
Ty i just got a replay with 2 more sets of response pads :D
Awesome!
BTW i really like your replay!!! i wanted translucent orange but i got the Ann Connolly edition.... still great tho :DD
yotricks do you ever do give away s
I literally use a guitar pick to pick out the adhesive, and it worked great
I'll have to give that a try.
response pads are great and all, but what are your thoughts on flowable silicon response?
In my experience it peels out of most yoyos too quickly.
yotricks can i use rtv silicone to make response pads?
I used gasket maker from my local auto store

+1124Meteor The Sage can do most any trick besides advanced grind tricks.
Oh, thats great! I just assumed that since some of the 1a yoyo tricks I've seen are pretty long and require a long spin time. thx
The Sage can spin for several minutes when it is fitted with the unresponsive bearing from the pro pack, as long as you have a straight and powerful throw.
Do you guys still offer the mint-green Canon? I've been considering getting into 3A, and I like the brightness of that particular Canon, but can't find it on your website.
We should have those back in stock soon.
Those dings tho
Ok if it helps the yo yo come back then why does my yo yo sometimes not come back up to my hand when I bind
Does 100% silicone work? , and also if I buy response pads for my yoyo will every size fit? I have a replay pro.
On all of our product pages we have a recommendation section that tells you what pads fit into the yoyo.
yoyotricks.com/shop/yoyo-store/yoyo-brands/yoyofactory/replay-pro-yoyo/
Flowable silicone works best.
Hey, yotricks! I'm back. Can you tell me why when I do "Walk The Dog" it won't come back? :|
Most likely the spin is dying as you do the trick. You probably just need to pull the yoyo up sooner, or throw it harder.
yotricks ok! thanks for the tip! sorry if my comments waste time :(
What response pad do yoyo JIANKUN use tell me pleace
yotricks can i get an autograph the next time i buy something from your site :D?
Quin Taylor like a peice of paper with a famous signature xD? autograph?
When you order you can leave a message in the Customer Notes section and ask for one.
yotricks really? Wow thanks :D
i love slippy loese binds :D
Do response pads take time to break in and if they do how long do they need?
They do not. They should work great immediately.
I mean they can be a little snappy at first and more responsive than they will later if you keep using them
here before this comes viral
:)

It's a yoyo video.
Ya silly goose.
Duncan pads suck . I bought a strix on Tuesday and both came out on Saturday yyf pads are great
I hate to say I agree. Mine wore out stupid quick, and I LIKE Duncan lol
My Strix is still Holding after 2years
I LIKE Kendama tricks
How does it take to wear out pads? AGHH, SO MANY QUESTIONS
It all depends on how often you yoyo. It could be as little as 4 weeks, it could be over a year.
My responsive yoyo is brand new but still isn't responsive a lot of the time, any idea on how to fix this?
Occa Jones change string or lube it with thick lube

i have recently bought a Sweets Kendamas Prime Solid Blue Kendama, and after 5 minutes of play after recieving the Kendama, my grip got really sliperry, and i cant get it on Lighthouse anymore, i cant even put it on with my hand! What happend?!?
Have you asked Sweets?
Dont worry, i got used to it and im landing Lighthouses all the time
Great!
Will Replay turn unresponsive with slim pads?
You also need a wide bearing.
@@yotricks I see... What will happen with only slim pads?
Semi-responsive?
@@theolodger Indeed.
How does semi-responsiveness work?
If I want to make an unresponsive yoyo a responsive one can the pads do that?
No. It is more about the bearing than the response pads.
@@yotricks Ok, thank you so much!
i just bought new pads 19mm but when they are on the yoyo they are too ,,tall,, i mean they are taller than the circle what they are in and it does not fit in it perfectly, any help?
What kind of yoyo is it?
@@yotricks shutter wide angle which uses the 19mm pads
That is pretty odd. Sometimes the pads do need to be forced in, but usually they are not too tall. What kind of pads did you get?
@@yotricks slusny.net/shop-cz/yyf-pad-thin/ here is the link but its in my language
Those are made by YoYoFactory. They should fit. I would ask Slusny to send you another pair, I guess.
Can you review the IR Pads
We currently have no plans to carry IR Pads, but if we decide to stock them, we will consider doing a review.
yotricks are they good ? Some people say it snags a lot and others say it is the best . What are your opinion
They seem to be a more grippy response pads. That is why some people call them snaggy, and others like them, because they bind tight. If you are frustrated by your yoyos because you feel that they do not bind tight enough, then they might be worth trying.
will yotricks sell blueprint string?
Yeasty Chain HighEndString is very similar, and lasts a little longer too
Yeasty Chain Werrd isn't making it
Bryan Perez It's also much more expensive.
Would you guys reccomend the dv888
Jacksepticy The champ i would
For beginners yes and no the good part about it is because it small and you can catch it easily the bad part about it is you could ding the yoyo and scratch it
I just got my yo-yo and they fell out...
What did you do? mine fell off too it's new
@@mostafaalmakkawi6309 I emailed the company and they sent me replacements... Where did you get it?
The lube probably seeped into the oads
Is the silver one a Canon?
Yes.
oh another thing.. can oil be the lube?
Not safely, you might damage the bearing. Go check out their video on lubing yoyos.
ok2 thanks though!
Can I superglue my pads back? Or just glue them with a hot glue gun ???
Once they fall out it is best to replace them.
Can I make a response pad from hot glue?
No, it will not be responsive enough. If you want to make your own response pads you should use silicone.
I've had the space cowboy for about two years, and the response pads keep expanding and pop out!
I've done deep cleaning and don't use lube. Even gone as far as buying a new bearing but it still happens. =[
The reason that is happening is because you are getting yoyo lube on the response pads, we recommend removing the bearing from the yoyo before you lube it so theres no risk of getting lube on the response pads :)

Whats the size of a yyf shutter???
It uses standard 19mm response pads.
yoyotricks.com/shop/yoyo-store/yoyo-brands/yoyofactory/yyf-slim-pads-blue/
Is it one fit all ?? Or is there sizes ???
There are different sizes. We let you know on our site for each product what size pad it requires under the recommended section.
yotricks Is it possible for them to go bad in one day I get a sage yoyo from yall Yesterday It's been years since I've yoyo
What do you mean "go bad"?
yotricks Like it's not as responsive like it was
Develin Allen That just means the bearing needs a little thick lube. It has noting to do with the response pads.
can i lube a size a bearing with wd40?
WD-40 is a degreaser, which means it is designed to remove lube, not to act as a proper lubricant. It is not a good idea to lube your bearing with WD-40.
If u want to make ur own u can use 3 parts paint thinner to one part 3in1 oil for a nice thin lube.
Never ever lube your bearing wd40 cause I did that once too with yomega Yo mod green yoyo.
If kind of F up my bearing it slep the same just performance isn't good anymore.
WD40 is oil lube.
Just buy thin or thick lube by real yoyo company, they only cost $5 or $9
OH yea the right what happen is also can hurt your pad if you dont dry your bearing even if it dry it still gonna wear your pad to quick.
That why I couldn't play my protostar anymore cause of that wd40
can I wash a size a bearing in rubbing alcohol?
Alcohol is diluted with water, so it may cause your bearing to rust.
I put lube on my unresponsive yoyo and now it's responsive how do I fix it
What kind of lube did you use?
yotricks I used thin lube or This MCT oil
MCT oil will definitely make your yoyo responsive. What thin lube did you use?
yotricks yoyo Factory thin lube
Can I replace the pads even if I used MCT oil or will it still be responsive
yotricks pls help me can i use yoyo factory boss for 5A
It is not the first yoyo we would recommend for 5a, but if that is what you have it will be enough to get you started.
thank you yotricks

Why the heck does my yoyo works without response pads
wtf how
Lol i got them now but that was weird
your bearing is playing responsive not un now you understand even I can still play protostar without a response pad but remember that just makes you look stupid.
just when mine peels out
Eyy
i just changeded mine and it is supper slippy btw i used magic yoyo pads that always work for me
Try a different string.
that didn't work it is still super slippy
Then it is either the pads, the yoyo, or your technique.
it usally works but it just didnt
I would say that 9 times out of 10 if a yoyo is slippy it is not the pads.
yoyo yoyoo yoyooo yooyoooo
The thing is my shutter and my horizon refuses to let me take out its bearing so i can only lube one side
Have you tried the multitool?

how to make a yoyo
how can you make a unresponsive yoyo like my dv888 unresponsive kit. into a responsive
Some yoyos allow you to put a slim bearing in them instead of a full sized bearing. If the bearing will fit, it will make the yoyo responsive. That being said, most yoyos will not hold a slim bearing because the bearing seat is too tall.
yotricks how about like a glide yomega. Can that be responsive?
Protip: Don't store your response pads where you store your lube. They might just grow if there's a leak.... Just sayin'
What do you mean grow? not work because i'm wondering why my pads are felling off my yoyo. they were stored with the lube and my lube was leaking
Come on. The yoyo I wanted to buy was the fizz. And the international shipping is 14 dollars and the fizz 10. That is called stealing. Please reduce the price

#1.} Do ALL YoYos have Response Pads?
#2.} My Duncan Butterfly pulls apart. It doesn't twist like yours. It doesn't have Response Pads, either.
1. No. Some yoyos (like the Butterfly) use starbursts instead.
2. Right.
Got it. Thank you.
