Hey, I need help. I’m looking for a durable string that’s on the heavy side so that it’s good for slacks and whips? Any suggestions?
(So far I’ve used regular kitty string and standard polyester string. I’m just looking for something better.)
Blueprint for sure. Ammo would also be nice. Kitty XL perhaps, though it’s a little slicker than the other two.
Yes blueprint are a good choice but the are fairly stiff but really durable.
If you want to go expensive maybe venom or dragon strings, both great strings.

There’s so many different string types now that it’s hard to say what you will like until you try them out. Some strings that have the durability, weight, and whippiness you’re looking for with normal thickness:

1.5 are the best. Or ape hangers.
Thanks a lot for the help. I’ll look at all of the strings. I know I’ve looked at some already.
Also, with the strings you’ve suggested, do you know how long they are? I know that Kitty string is usually long and I’ve heard that Blueprints are a little short, but what about the others?
