What do you think is the favourite yoyo string color? Orange looks great, but I have a hard time deciding!

what do you mean by “best”?

this is a subjective question. are you asking what people feel have the “best” visibility? i’d go with white, yellow, orange or bright pink. this depends on ambient lighting and the colors in the area that you are throwing in.

i don’t think they look the best though. i typically match my string to the throw. i have a nice stash of @BadWolfeCo strings in different colorways that i use to make the string/throw combo look the best i can. this is an aspect of the hoby that i do enjoy. i love these strings in the Goldilocks thickness & Slicc “formula”.

if i were to compete, i’d be more concerned about visibility. most people who perform on stage want the string to be seen by the audience/judges so they will go with a bright, high-visibility string to accomplish this. i think yellow or white would be the most common colors for performance with maybe orange/bright pink being other options.

many people just want to see the string better, even if they are not competing so again white, yellow or another high-vis color would be what they go to.

enjoy the throw.

My favorite string color is white or yellow.  
The reason is that they are highly visible.  
In addition, I often use white strings because they go well with any color yo-yo.  
But I also use different colored strings for different yo-yos.  
I like to use orange string on green yo-yos.

I love pink  
And blue. Sadly those are often the lesser performing string colors due to the method to dye them but such is life. Also pink looks ugly when it gets dirty.

i adore white string, it goes with everything and looks so classic. my personal favorite.

yellow and green are great for visibility and pink is a prettier color than both of them while still being visible, but i prefer white over them all. great middle ground

I like yellow and orange.

My favorite blend is orange and pink together. Not easy to find.

Yellow, Pink, and White go with almost everything, so I’d go with one of those!

All of my string that I bought has been yellow, but I would love to see other companies make more colors for their string, such as white and pink.

Lighter pastel colors tend to be my favorites. I like some neons too like orange and green, but I can’t stand the look of neon yellow string on most yoyos. I’d rather have a plain banana or pastel yellow which are so hard to find 😢

The standard neon yellow is great for play.  
Pale pink is awesome for aesthetics tho. I go back and forth😅

As a representative of the noob-squad: Would the color design of the YoYo not also influence the choice in color of the string? Like my YoYo is two-tone yellow and blue, so I put a neon pink string on it. It gives the yoyo more depth and pop.

I try to match it to my yoyo or mood, I’ll change yoyo and/or string many times during a play session. It’s all about relaxing and vibing for me.

That said, blacks, pinks and yellows have been doin it for me lately.

Color coordinating to make it easier to see is also a strategy.
