i just learned the great ness of short string
Certainly helps smoothen out your play 
short string = faster tricks.
but sometimes i find it to be difficult to execute more technical trick. :-[
Dude, I have been trying to get you to do that since July…
Congratulations… your life can now continue.
I just learned how to do a suicide :3
Agreed, short strings are the way to go. as a general rule i cut mine to my belly button, IE: let your yoyo touch the floor and make your slipknot right about where your hand is mid-belly button. Elephark showed myself and a friend this and it improves tension, control, etc.
Don’t do it, you have so much to live for 
jk
Short strings are nice, I use them about half of the time, and I play faster
They are real dangerous. If you accidentally put in too much strength, the yoyo hits you right in the face, based on my few experiences with them.
Shorter strings give me a more controlled feel to my yoyoing.
Exactly, And it almost makes you more conscious of how your using your string and making every inch count (thats what she said, LOL)
Belly button is still to long for me. I tie it about two inches down my belly button.
