If you watched Andre’s looping tutorials, he said that the string length for him is from his pocket to the ground. ---

Yeah, I suggested that since you didn’t know what to do. You gotta sacrifice a few pieces then. ---

Take your string, pick what you think would be a good length, tie the loop and throw a few loops without cutting off the excess string. If it’s uncomfortable, adjust it to be a longer or shorter length and repeat the process until you find a comfortable length. I usually start at the bottom of my pocket and go shorter by small intervals from there. Then once you find a good length, measure your future strings using that original string as a template (this is where having 2 yoyos comes in handy. When changing strings, make sure to do them one at a time). ---

The Sunsets are great yoyos. They’re pretty forgiving to your fingers because they’re somewhat light. As for length, you might take a look at the latest posts and comments on [http://mrcnja.blogspot.com/](http://mrcnja.blogspot.com/)
