What is a trans-axle yo-yo?
A transaxle is a round sleeve that fits over the axle. The yo-yo string fits around this sleeve, allowing the yo-yo to spin faster. There are two sorts of trans-axles, nylon and steel roller bearing. Nylon transaxles, found on yo-yos such as the “Fireball” give extra performance at a great price. Steel roller bearings give the long sleeps, the fastest spins and the best performance. “Yomega Raider”, “Terminator Tornado”, “Turbo BumbleBee”, the “Viper” and “Cold Fusion” are examples of high performance, roller bearing yo-yos.
