Extreme Grooved and Winged Bearing Size "C"
lotus supergroove
Your bearing is the engine of your yo-yo. Be the best. Play the best.
The yo-yo bearing that started the company. The Lotus SuperGroove is specifically designed to meet and exceed the demands of today's modern players. Unlike most grooved bearings, Lotus SuperGrooves have the largest groove you have ever seen! What this means is SuperGrooves are able to accommodate even the thickest of strings while maintaining the absolute least contact with the response or walls of the yo-yo. Contact creates friction that slows your yo-yo down to a stop. Our design minimizes friction allowing your yo-yo to have incredible spin times. The extreme groove coupled with the winged shape allows tight, consistent binds even at low spin.
SuperGrooves are:
There has always existed confusion especially due to countless outdated forum posts regarding the ABEC rating. Quite simply put, ABEC measures precision. Most of the top bearings sold have no ABEC rating and are not even tested or certified. Because bearings are so small, precision absolutely matters. With tolerances even slightly off, the performance of the bearing will suffer. Everything from slow spin times to seizing which lands your bearing right in the garbage. No amount of cleaning will fix that!
Unlike most bearings, which use nylon cages, Lotus SuperGrooves use surgical stainless steel. Nylon is very thin and susceptible to stretching and breakage. Stainless steel never stretches or breaks. The majority of all factory bearings are only 8 ball and chrome steel (not surgical stainless) that run a minimum of 40% less RPMs than 10 ball.
Lotus SuperGrooves are capable of ludicrous RPMs. From beginners to pros, the increase in spin allows players more time to learn a new trick without having to throw again or completing a long combo for competitions. There is no break in period and they run almost silently. Since they are dry lubed, there is no need to add any yo-yo lube whatsoever. Doing so will result in a responsive bearing and is not recommended.
Competition grade yo-yos cost anywhere from $100-$200+. Running the factory 8 ball bearing as the "engine" of your yo-yo investment is not an option. Expect the best for your throws. Expect Lotus Bearings.
