Good day friends. I’m having a little difficulty setting up a set of loop 2020’s. All the axles and spacers seem to measure out the same. I have all three sets. No matter what combo I use, the string gap is too narrow (for me). I’m using the thinnest string I have and they still play down. Has anyone else experienced this or should I just try it and see if it grows on me? - In this video I have- left hand, a loop 720 with my regular strings, right hand is a loop 2020 with the thinnest string I have. … ---

Do you have the bigger axle? I run one pair with Shu’s setup, which I don’t fully recall but def has a #3 axle. ---

Let me check. I thought according to the chart, number 1 axle was the longest ---

Oops 😅 Shu’s setup is #3 axle, #1 and #2 starburst, and #2 spacers. [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/6/7/a/67aaf99e11403fda5d5e83da8df5c998a75f9cc4.jpeg "How to set up Loop 2020 by Shu Takada") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RaMVroNC0aI) ---

Make sure the spacers are in place. (If my memory serves.) ---

I used this video to help me adjust the settings of the loop 2020 [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/2/6/f26da23d2a37360e768156b26818fb0d39eae0ac.jpeg "A LOOK inside the LOOP 2020 by YoYoFactory") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQdwwvTD5OE) In order from loop down, middle, and loop up Spacers: red → white → black Starburst: 3 → 2 → 1 Axle: 3 → 2 → 1 I think it also correlates with gap width from smallest to biggest ---

Ok ok. So after copying Shu’s set up, I can see the potential. :joy: Definitely different feeling throws. I still think the gap is narrow compared to 720’s and the shorter string acts like a thinner string. I guess I’ll play with them more in August…… … ---

Thank you. Most days I don’t feel like that. Only frustration at the intermittent spin outs or not catching a yo after I finally land something. But then I look at previous reels and that I couldn’t even loop left handed at the end of March lol. This forum , Fast Eddy and Jon Gates are the reason I’m having any success!
