What about a toy store, could you get yo-yo strings from a toy store? I could just use yo-yos that do not have friction stickers, if I could find yo-yo strings. My area was not red.
As for Friction Stickers, you can also make those yourself out of duck tape, but its pretty hard, I’ll actually try to do do it, if I succeed, I’ll make a tutorial in a few days.
But you’ll probably need a new yoyo as you get better, so I reccomend a hybrid plastic YoYoJam. The responce lasts forever, and if it doesn’t, you can get O-rings at a hardware store. But shipping isn’t a huge problem for us in the U.S., so you can always upgrade yoyos without having to worry about spending too much because of shipping. (I really feel bad for people outside of the U.S.)
Thanks everyone for your posts, I watched the third video on “How to make yo-yo string”, but I did it a little bit different. It looks like it turned out, but I did not try it out yet.
yes i have i didnt have money to order more string for like a week so i went to the toy store and got a 1.50 yoyo and in one day it snapped wen i threw a hard break away
Friction Stickers aren’t exclusively online. When I was on vacation, I went to a store in New York called FAO Schwarz. It’s basically a giant toy store. I saw friction stickers, right next to the Duncan Speed Beetles.
Plus, I’m pretty sure I’ve seen string in toy stores such as Toys R Us
