I know it’s subjective as to who is considered a big (popular and/or important to the development of yoyo play) yoyoer but I post this just because I noticed that Ann Connolly uses REALLY LONG string. Like HONKING string. Are there any other mainstream yoyoers, present or past, that used far longer-than-normal string? I’m talking string that looks to go at least to the waistline, if not longer. It looked like Connolly had hers near thigh-level on some of her YYT tutorials ---

My vote goes to Seth Peterson. Photos don’t clearly show it but at the 2008 MWR barbecue he attempted a trick with about a 15 foot string. As I recall it was a shoot the moon, but then my memory is a bit foggy on this. ![IMG_0843](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/3/e/83edbb018fb727655e79c8ee82697b4aab7bfb0a.jpeg) ![IMG_0844](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/d/e/a/dea46fd10a407fd3e254a8b4841c3f5185ffc142.jpeg) ---
