 Do you use flat bearings?
What string do you use? 
 It kind of varies from day-to-day. at the moment I’m using a bearing called a center track which is flat in the middle and has two 45° angles on either side directing the string towards the center but they’re all flat.

This is a new string for me. This is from a company that went out of business about a year back or so. They were called Bad Wolfe Co. it’s a thicker and heavier string. A couple weeks ago I noticed I had a few I got a couple years ago and thought I should try it out. I’m not really sure what it was called. 
 Are those the yo-yo factory center track? I normally use og concave ceramic diff e yoyo bearings & still trying to make it though my og g-strings but I’m on my last alchemy poly-nylon… 
 These are the MagicYoYo version of them. I haven’t used konkave in a long time because it felt like they caused backspin binds. I miss g-strings. Paul Wallace was in the process of making a comeback just as the pandemic began and then he stopped :/ 
 Haven’t tried the magicyoyo ones… all 3 of my ceramics are dead unresponsive. Yeah it would have been nice to get ahold of some new g-strings they were always the best imho.
