Hi y’all! I’m working on perfecting my string blend and getting practice with making cool designs. My string is 100% nylon, extremely soft and smooth and looks fantastic!

In this thread, either name a bunch of colors and the style of string you want or send a photo of your yoyo and I’ll make string to match it. If you really like it then I’ll send it over to you! Let’s go!

Updated color list:

Black  
Navy  
Blue  
**Turquoise**  
Opal green  
Forest Green  
**Neon Green**  
**Neon yellow**  
Gold  
Orange  
**Neon orange**  
Red  
**Neon red**  
Hot Pink (not quite neon unfortunately)  
**Neon pink**  
Purple  
Lavendar  
Silver  
White

Can you do one with light blue, neon green, and white? either as a fade or twist. (Also, the strings in the second pic look really awesome, looking forward to seeing what you end up making in this thread).

Andrew was nice enough to send me several of these and they are very nice strings. They feel very soft on the fingers and have the slightest bounce to them giving a somehow smoother feel to the yo-yo in play. Give them a shot.

So far. They are 100% nylon and that alone will make them a long lived string.

My record for spinning strings up is 6 minutes and 30 seconds for a fade, so I’m getting pretty quick!
