Im right at 6ft tall and kinda lanky. I like my string about 2 inches above my belly button. So that when its tied around my finger, putting my finger (with the yoyo on it) poking at my belly button, the throw is just hitting the floor. If I do that and there is slack Ill shorten it. If I do that and it doesnt hit the floor, I feel its too short for my likeness. For me personally, thats my sweet spot.

Just like an English Essay, which should be just as long as a woman’s skirt.  
Short enough to keep it interesting, but long enough to cover the subject.
