Cotton. I’ve got Type 4 up to Type 10, all depending on the yoyo. But on most all of my yoyos it’s YYE Type 10 string. I’ve heard that ZipLine is working on some cotton strings. Will be interesting to try.

What he’s not telling you is this was the last 10 seconds of a 20 minute video of him not landing it, lol.
(No idea if that’s true, just would definitely be my experience.

For this one the whole take for it was like 2 - 3 minutes. Once you can land consistent Kick/Heel flips, doing variations that don’t change the basic catch are easy.

I am offended that you would imply I am not able to land consistent kick/heelflips.
I can’t… but still. It hurts.

Anyone have any tips for the heelflip? I have the kickflip down pretty consistent but I’m still having problems with the heelflip.
