Marine Grade Stainless Steel Axles
Lotus goodvibes
The single most important part of any yo-yo is its axle.
Lotus GoodVibes are specifically designed to meet and exceed the demands of today's modern players. Unlike the factory axle that came equipped in your yo-yo, Lotus GoodVibes are precisely measured, heavy duty threaded, and perfectly cup-pointed specifically for yo-yo. GoodVibes are named because they can erase unwanted vibration and have your yo-yo running as smoothly as possible.
Lotus Axles are:
NOTE:
Just like a bimetal yo-yo features aluminum bodies with steel rings, steel mates well with aluminum. Titanium is available in over 38 commercial grades which all vary by quality, consistency, strength, corrosion resistance, and hardness. Unfortunately, the material is either too soft, or much too hard to mate with aluminum causing damage to your yo-yo and its threads. Lotus only uses marine grade stainless steel for these reasons.

- Precision cut to perfectly match CNC thread taps from all yo-yo manufacturers
- Available in most common sizes 4mm x 0.7mm x 8mm and 4mm x 0.7 x 10mm. Please contact for any other size you need!
- Hex head perfectly fits all multitools
- Every single axle is personally thread tested and inspected before shipping to ensure perfect working order and maintain the highest possible quality.

Along with a Lotus 10 ball bearing, Lotus GoodVibes are the most ideal way to combat dreaded vibe. Players ranging from beginners to pros will all benefit from a smooth-running yo-yo. Vibration significantly reduces spin times because it creates additional movement of the yo-yo, which in turn reduces the performance of the bearing. Vibration also decreases string centering allowing the string to make unnecessary contact with the response as well as the walls of the yo-yo. Any increase of string friction will dramatically decrease spin time.
We have seen $150 yo-yos be totally unplayable due to a cheap, improperly measured carbon coated axle. The amount of vibration out of the box is shocking. Switching the factory axle to Lotus GoodVibes has immediate results. All GoodVibes axles are 100% marine grade stainless steel. These are the very same level of hardware used on nuclear submarines and bionic limbs. Isn't this overkill for a yo-yo? Absolutely! The benefit is total precision as well as being 100% corrosion resistant even in saltwater.
GoodVibes are all hex-headed which will perfectly fit all multitools. No more trying to make an axle adjustment and discovering your yo-yo multitool doesn't fit due to an improperly machined head. Lotus GoodVibes are the perfect solution for fixing new, problem yo-yos out of the box or fine-tuning vibration adjustments. Modern yo-yos typically favor a specific half for the cup point to be properly secured in. Try experimenting to see which half of your yo-yo works best for you. No claims are made regarding yo-yos that have been heavily damaged from use or misuse.
Competition grade yo-yos cost anywhere from $100-$200+. Running the cheap mismatched axle in your yo-yo investment is not an option. Expect the best for your throws. Expect Lotus Bearings.
