Or both. I’m kicking myself for missing this drop. 2 minutes to late.

I ended up getting mine late on Friday. I played with it a bit that night and a lot on Saturday. I really like it. The response is very good, I love that it’s durable, but beyond that it’s just fun. I managed to land a kickflip a few times in a row so I was happy with that. I would buy a second one.
Consider me a fan @Glenacius_K

What string is everyone using on theirs? I’ve had Kitty fat on mine and it’s worn pretty shaggy so time to change and I’m thinking of trying cotton next.

Use poly. Kitty string goes pretty shaggy at the best of times.

What do you like for it? OT?

Original Throw should work well, but I usually use sochi regular.

I really like new Kitty fats. They’ve really grown on me, they last noticeably longer than old Kitty which I still enjoyed.
Markmont Amy was my old go to for modern responsive stuff though, it’s really nice if you want something a bit softer. Feels about the same thickness as Kitty fat, but lasts infinitely longer if you run it though the wash whenever you do laundry.

I’ve been using a string lab Kapow on mine. Perfect thickness for me and lasts a while.

I just got my first markmont string and am bummed out that I need more. You go with regularly or thick?

I always go with thick Markmont blends personally. I feel like they’re in the same realm as Kitty where the regular/normal blend is thinner than most over strings, the thicks/fats are perfect though.

I use Alphaline, seems to work great with the Survivalist. Lasts quite a while too, longer than I was expecting given the gap/response system.

That’s good. I’ll order some Sochi, but I have Alphaline now. I’m usually not too picky about string, but the response holes I think call for something thinner.
Another q @Glenacius_K , is the gap supposed to be adjustable or is the intent to push the halves together all the way? I’ve been opening the gap a bit to keep that ragged string out of the response holes.

I believe Glenn discouraged me from opening the Survivalist whenever possible… i think if you keep messing with the gap you might loosen the grip around the axel.

Thanks. Yeah, I was concerned about that.
