why i have my string long...

Why is the kid making a post about this? I am not making a big deal about it. Just stating how pointless starting this thread was.

how about yoyoing is all preference, from the lube in the bearing to the trick you do every time you pick a yoyo up. Just remember you can prove your point of preference. you are NOT proving the best way. I think everyone should always give something a shot even if they THINK they wont like it.

He felt he had to defend himself, because of some things that were said.

i think this post has more meaning in it rather than, “Should i get a dv888 or a protostar come on guys what do ya think?”.

We all say that this community is full of good people, but do we display that?

CURSE YOU FROZEN YETI BABY!! I am 6’5"

I also make my own string so I can get a string slightly above my belly button.

ok go defend yourself through pm. it was like 2 people that said that so pm them not start a thread for the entire forum to read. i should start a how tall are you thread because that’s all these people are talking about.

Play what feels right to you. My string goes up a couple inches above my belly button.
Here’s another way to think about it. Short string makes your tricks go faster. I think we can agree on that. You could think that “oh, if my tricks are faster, I can do more tricks in my freestyle, and get more points.” Or you could think of it this way. If your tricks are faster, theres less time to think and aim. That means that there will be more mistakes. So, you could be losing points by playing short string, too. Also, it makes my combos feel more abrupt, but that may be because I’m not used to playing with a short string. Play what feels right to you, not what everybody else plays with. My friends complain about my long string all the time, I don’t care. It gives my 1a tricks a better flow to them, it balances my 5a tricks by having more equal motion between the yoyo and the counterweight. The only time I use short string is for 3a because its just ridiculous to have 2 full length strings. That’s my take on the subject. It really is pointless because you have people who think short string are better, and people who think long strings are better, and they both fail to realize that we aren’t all the same, and we all have our own preferences. So try short string, try long string. Play around with it and find what YOU like best, and shut up about it.

when i came to the yoyo club the first time, they told me not to cut my string.

Pointless thread, needs a lock
It’s actually very immature to post a whole thread because you didn’t like what a person said…
