I remember my shyt kept glitching out. I'd yo-yo it down hard to make it sleep longer, but it kept bouncing RIGHT back up with equal force and busted my whole shyt. Lip was on swole for two weeks and I couldn't even go to band and play the trumpet...lookin like :mjgrin:

I've been going down the rabbit hole, and this explains the boom in polarity with YoYos in the 90s.

There were a few ball bearing yoyos before this, but this is the first time someone manufactured and sold it as a product successfully.

SB-2 yo-yo

In 1990, Kuhn introduced the SB-2 yo-yo that had an aluminum transaxle, making it the first successful ball-bearing yo-yo
