What’s the string that comes with Luftverk yo-yos? I love the length and thickness. Just wish I could find some other colors. If anyone knows please tell. Hopefully I can buy a bulk set. Thank you

I will guess OT because they sell it in bulk on their player’s site.

Note it is the 2021 version, not that I know if that matters but he does call it out so it might. I dont use kitty as I prefer OT (original throw) they also sell it on their other site so that was why it was my guess.

The string is own blend of thick, but I don’t really sell it publicly yet just a custom thick blend that I prefer - might release it later this year but undecided.

This is a reply from Jeffrey after I asked him the same question for plastic peak.

Ty for your help. Could you possibly recommend anything similar? The length and thickness is perfect. I keep running into the same problem: the string is either too short or too thin

84 string with 5% nylon is another option for thick competition string, it’s also softer than Kitty. Currently, the only US site has it available is YYF.
