With the growing amount of string types out there I am curious as to which one I will like best.
Here’s the topic: I put a string of such and such brand on such and such yoyo. Well, a week later I decide that I like or dislike said string, but now I don’t remember which it is. Does anyone have a methodology of string testing?
Well, You’d be best off to write down the yoyo and string pair that you’er using and keep it somewhere safe.
I know when I’m testing a whole bunch of different versions of the same string, it can be extremely difficult to remember the exact material I used and the exact tension I used while making it. Especially when the string plays great…
As for finding what kind of string it is after a week, check out the areas near the slip knot, as that tends to be the least worn down part of the string. Compare this area to a brand new string, and you should be able to match them up from the color and texture.
Myself, being the string connoisseur that I am, can touch a string, maybe inspect it for like 5 seconds, and be able to tell you what kind of string it is. I love strings, and can tell by the threads and how it feels what kind it is.
