I sell 100 packs of string for $20: [Official Beyond 42 Strings Thread(No longer in operation) - Custom String Makers - YoYoExpert](http://yoyoexpert.com/forums/index.php/topic,54271.0.html)

Note I make each order when it comes in. So expect 2-3 weeks of me making string. Before your order is ready to ship.

If you need it now just buy kitty string.

Also try undoing your knots.

I really like normal Kitty, although I have never used higher end strings, but kitty does everything I need it to, so its fine for me.

All comes to your needs. Fat is good if you’re still perfecting your tricks and binds. Slim will allow more space in gap.

The whole fat or slim thing boils down to preference and yoyo. I find that some of my throws work better with normal or fat Kitty strings while some (mostly new ones with super grippy fresh pads) play better with thins. If you’re not sure there’s a Kitty strings sampler pack with 5 each of Kitty nylon, thin, normal, fat, and mix (two colour twist). Not sure if they have them at YYE but if not, shoot me a PM.

Big Yoyo Strings! Type 1 or candy. Type 1 is more expensive but lasts longer. Candy is a cheaper alternative that manages tension superbly and is terrifically soft on the hands. Check out [our website](https://sites.google.com/site/bigyoyostring/) for a more in depth description

Another company to throw in the hat is [www.twistedstringz.com](http://www.twistedstringz.com)  
I’ve been using her strings for the past 4 months now. I love them. There are different kinds so depending on taste but my favorite to use is type 1a.
