I’m interested to hear what kinda stings everyone uses: color, type, length, or anything that is about your string that makes you different. K me first. I have used two different kinds in the last 3 months that i have been yoing. I first had lime green Slick 6 50/50s. After i used them i tryed some purple yoyonation highlights (100% poly.). I didnt like them as much so now Im back to the ime green slick 6s! So what kind do u like or find the best and where do you get them? Please share. ---

I’m actually the opposite. I tried slick 6 50-50’s and didn’t care for them too much. Now I use Green Scream YYN Highlights, type 6. most of them are about an inch or two above the belly button from the floor, any shorter and it feels like so little string. ---

I use 50/50 type 6. As for length I generally say: The longer the better. But i can work with just about all lengths unless its really really short. 🙂 ---

I like YYN highlights, but most of the time, they are too snaggy for me. Generally, I use White 50/50 YYN string 🙂 But Paul Wallace G-String OWNS ALL!!! ---

> [@ape7566](#): > > I make my own, not a real fan of 50/50 of cotton. Polly and nylon is what i make it out of. same with me, I use 2 strands of transluscent nylon from walmart in my strings and slacks and suicides are great. It also feels smoother on the string. It is much better than anything i have used and hols tension so good, hardly have to adjust it. [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/strings/205.md?page=2)
