Not that extream, no. My clash has no vibe and I have unscrewed and rescrewed it daily many times, it is a wonderfull yoyo and they are great performing yoyos. When they do unscrew there can be a vibe but it is very miniscule, you can hardly notice it. You know that clyw tiny tiny vibe…less than that is the amount of vibe they are talking about. They are high priced due to material and performance capabilities, if you don’t like the price then just don’t buy, plain and simple…but if you have not tried any then you can’t really talk bad about them. In this case for once it is a “get over it” kind of deal.
