Just here to hype up how nice these strings are! I know a lot of people are looking for quality boutique strings now that Airetic and Bad Wolfe are defunct. A&A Formula 1s are mostly nylon which makes super slippery and whippy, they handle a lot like the Airetic nylons from a few years back. They have a medium/slim weight to them and a tighter wind which is what I (personally) prefer. You can definitely wash and reuse these for weeks so the durability is up there as well. I’ll write up a full review and post it here soon. ---

Just released our first ever Fade string to our subscribers. These are hand-dyed, pure nylon strings. We’ve had a few prototypes but this one is our first run fade (can a string have a ‘first run’? I think so, if it’s cool enough!) We’ll be doing a drop soon, follow us on instagram for more info. ![Fade 01 ISO_00000](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/0/0/f/00fff7108caed02d53ad230d8a1f1187a1d13a61.jpeg) ![Fade](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/c/1/1/c116a534989067090bc1a22b76cb8722ada8a3b2.jpeg) ---

I’m going to be busy this weekend, so I’m posting this now. This is the final A&A review before I get back to other strings we know and love (and probably hate). Tons of requested string are planned up for the futurelike Slackies, HKMT, Kitty, stock strings, and tons of Zipline. That’s later, though, and this is now. A&A Yoyo String Fades Prototype || A- (90/100) [image] I was told this was a prototype but ended up being the string that they kept, but I’m still calling it… They works as described above for unresponsive but I really enjoy nylon on some of my modern responsive. The fades work great on my kasm and my slim Jim. It be found they are a tad bouncy and not ideal for slim yo-yos like el mijo or impact ---

Thanks for that. That is what I remember (bouncy) about the Skyline III strings from Zipline which had a higher percentage of nylon than the rest but still had some poly in the mix. Jeremy at Zipline recommended this to me: once the string is on the yo-yo, twist and twist and twist, tightening the string. Then stretch it with all your might. He promised it wouldn’t break and it doesn’t. It stretches it a bit and it does play noticeably different afterwards. I’ve done this to all of my strings ever since. I imagine it would have a nice effect on 100% nylon. I will be trying some of these. 😁😁 [Previous page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/a-a-yoyo-strings-spooky-fades/356170.md?page=2) [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/a-a-yoyo-strings-spooky-fades/356170.md?page=4)
