All the varieties are quite good, though I definitely don’t care for the “thin Dragon” – just way too thin for my tastes. A sampler pack is the way to go because they are all good!

However, if you are a [Give Me Nylon or Give Me Death](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/lets-talk-nylon-strings/293172) kinda person you can probably just stick to Cumulous Foam and Dragon.

Does anyone know the material/blends of all of these strings? I really want to try them out, but I can’t be bothered to use full nylon string. 🤢 @Markmont

They are all 100% poly. I don’t and never have used nylon - seems to be a long standing rumor for some reason :thinking:

I would def not consider Draken to be thin considering it’s thicker than the average string on the market - but it ‘is’ thinner then some of the other now more common modern day string boutiques options (marginally). Over the course of the first…2 to 3 hours of straight use, it actually loosens up and gets thicker then it starts.
