So I noticed there are many different types of kitty string(normal,nylon,fat,thin,etc.) and I was wondering what are the differences and which one is the bet of the bunch. ---

the thins are thinner and probably for thinner gapped yoyos normal is the most reccomended and is just slightly better than average poly nylon is rough and stiff, great for slacks harsh on the hands. Thick, is my favorite. Truely nice binds, perfect slacks and nicely soft. id say Thicks the way to go ---

I think it all depends on the yoyo and gap size and your response, if your yoyo catches a lot with thick, use normal, if the binds slip with normal go thick, just get a few ten packs (different colors so you wont get confused haha) and see what your preference is. ---

Agreed. You’ll notice the “thickness” in binds (in other words, there IS a bit of a difference), but overall it’s really only a tiny bit thicker. Calling it “Fat” made it sound plusher than it really is. I do slightly prefer the Fat Kitty (Kitty Fat?) over the normal. ---
