Great performance, puke-worthy comfort. Binds were stupid. They were snagging to the point where once every few binds I would see the loose string wiggling in the air as the yoyo came back to me, and I could never get it to happen on purpose, kind of like trying to catch a smart kid misbehaving.  
Also, the name wasn’t lying, this is good slacking string (in my opinion). It’s light enough to control and thick enough to know where it’ll land, but the BINDING is HORRIBLE. It’s not unplayable, but it got really annoying. Durability great for poly, whip fine, tension fine, consistency fine? but the BINDING EUGH I hate it. Bad feel and bad bind makes for a bad string, no matter if it’s great performing. If it’s your taste, go for it. It’s a bit like anchovies on pizza in that way, but the anchovies are still moving and it smells horrible. Stats below.

> Durability 30 min (4.5) yeah!  
> Durability 1 hr (4) worse look same stretch (minimal)  
> Personal Thickness Feel (2) this was weird. feels thin but binds thick. i hate it, but not unplayable  
> Whip Feel Break-In (4) hmmmm  
> Whip Feel 1 hr (3)  
> Slack Feel Break-In (5)  
> Slack Feel 1 hr (4.5) NICE  
> Tension Hold over 1 hour overall(4) great  
> Softness during break-in (2) yuck  
> Overall consistency over 1 hour (3.5) hmm idk where to put this  
> Total: 36.5 x 2 = 73, 73 = C graded based on letter system (A: 100-90, B: 89-80, C: 79-70, D: 69-60, F: 60\<)
