Hi, I’ve been trying out some new yoyo strings and was wondering if any of you have put together a spread sheet or something along the lines to find which strings are the most well suited for all styles of play. ---

I’ve always loved review content, and I’d like to be one of the first ones to focus specifically on string! I’ll be posting here when I have the time, and since I’m pretty perfectionist in nature the reviews will take a while per string, especially since I’m a full time college student and not getting paid for this. I just love yo-yos! Below will be my grading process, if you disagree with any of the criteria or feel like I missed anything, you can always comment … ---

I imagine throwing together a little write up won’t be frowned on everyone loves to see different perspectives and string is super preferential and subjective so more folks with perspectives isn’t a bad thing just wanted to toss a thread out that I know has done the work ---

Pea Soup Strings should get more love here imo. They’re a new string maker out of Canada and the strings are terrific! My favorite are the blue/yellow wooly ones. They’ve got a little bounce and a bit of a break in period but after a few minutes they’re amazing. They’re smooth, even the “wooly” ones. I like that they’re a bit thinner than ZS.Air (which get hyped all the time and for good reason.) > **[Premium Wooly - Blue Yellow](https://peasoupstrings.com/products/premium-wooly-blue-yellow?variant=44814862385254)** > > Quantity: 3 Strings Wooly nylon with a touch of silk. 100 weight, 2 ply, ultra-fine 100% premium multi- filament japanese silk thread.   Material: Wooly Nylon + Silk Length: Stretch Length: Weight:  Format: Regular Type: Pre-Blend @RealGambit customer service is above and beyond good too. ---

Wow. Thank you. That is really appreciated. It means a lot. I am making some new strings for the store and a new event is coming soon for Pea Soup Strings. More strings, less colors. Stay tuned. ---

Im definitely going to check them out. I currently use zipline but often the shipping to Canada is more than the strings i purchase. ---

Of course, no problem. Thanks for asking. First, they are all woolly nylon. Wooly, Silky and Snuggly are different brand Of woolly nylon. They are pure nylon. Downy & Fleecy are blends of two different brand of nylon. : Downy is a blend of wooly + Silky. Fleecy is a blend of Silky + Snuggly Right now I am experimenting on a third blend… They are all woolly nylon, but they all play a bit differently. If you have more questions…
