Atmos Cloudweaves || B+ (87/100)
The string is pretty slick and pretty soft while not being completely plush, and it becomes slicker as you use it (fingers and hands lost the tactile feel most strings have). Felt a lot like what nylon blends go for. Comfort was so good that I rarely noticed the string itself, if that makes sense. Few strings can do that, and it’s normally ones that mesh really well with the person. For thickness, I’ve always felt like slick/soft/nylon-y strings have tighter binds, and being a fat thickness made that tight feeling a bit uncomfortable to me but never unplayable. Slacks were on the speedy side, and the shapes of the slack looked more lopsided/forward-facing with a bit of weight to them if that makes sense (maybe one day i’ll get a photo of what I mean). Thickness probably had a bit to do with it, since whips were VERY similar. Very fast, kept shape well, bit weighted, you all get it by now. I’ve yet to see a string where whips felt speedy and slacks felt too slow, they’re often correlated. Over the hour, literally none of the performance feel changed. Maybe it was because I was focusing on zoning and not many slack/whip-heavy tricks, but any change passed my radar. Tension was still good, feel was good, maybe binds felt weirder? but that’s my gut talking and not my memory. Tension-holding with this string is great, by the way.
Nothing else to say with this that wouldn’t be overextending the review. No nonsense with this one idk if it’s still being sold but definitely try it if you like string like this. Comfortable, long-lasting, reliable for any kind of trick (probably). Only reason it’s not A-tier is because of the thick-feel thing.
