Hey all you yoyoers, have you ever thought,“how do they make such different string, and what do they make it out of?”. Well, it is actually fairly easy and after a couple tries you can make some decent strings. I made a working string the first time, however it was twisted backwards.
Anyway, a big part in making strings is finding the right mix of materials. Go online, find how to make string and post your best mixtures.
Keep Your Spin, Bro

I have found that a good mixture is 5 wraps polyester and 1 wrap nylon. Makes some smooth string that plays nicely.
