I noticed in another thread that someone was having trouble with the flush silicone response on their Legacy where the adhesive backing was still on the silicone o-rings.  I checked it out on my Axiom and the same thing was present.  If you use a safety pin or something similar, peel the o-ring out of the recessed area and peel off the white backing, then reseat the rings.  This helped my Axiom bind a good bit tighter, and I'm able to get stronger throws.  Thus, longer sleep times. 

How long is yours sleeping?
Do you still have the stock bearing?
I replaced mine with a KK.

Or he could try using the yoyo a little more just to break in a bearing. I always find breaking in a yoyo is more satisfactory than cleaning one. Plus cleaning can cause rust if you don't use the right stuff.
