## Boomer-only opportunity I’m looking for a small (3-4) group of people willing to give my new V2 SOLUTIONS strings a shot. Each person will get one string at random (ink, elixir, or ether) to test and give me feedback about how it feels on the finger, how easy it is to string, and how it plays. _Caveat: You can’t be @Captrogers! He’s already testing something else, and will be getting more test strings in a week or so 😃_ ---

Since @Captrogers was throwing at the beach, I too threw…. At the beach. I got a knot trying new stuff. I told my oldest daughter I’m just going to change strings.

ATTN BOOMERS: If you ordered a v2 Workhorse and end up playing it with the included Throw-Yo string, please take pics/videos and send them to me please! Also, get more BETTER Woody Wagon Stain Ethers here: [https://throw-yo.com/product/5pk-solutions-string-woody-wagon-stain-v2-ether/](https://throw-yo.com/product/5pk-solutions-string-woody-wagon-stain-v2-ether/) These are similar to what came with your Proto, but are now made to be easier to string up and are a bit softer. ---

V2 Workhorse: First impressions. It’s pretty much everything I was hoping for, haha! The V1 was already amazing, and I knew there were tweaks we were looking for. Jake nailed them and then some. I’m actually impressed about how different this feels while keeping that base spirit, in all good ways. Weight is a sweet spot for me as-is without any rings, super smooth, even more comfy in the hand, great response. Can easily shuffle through 0A/1A-ish tricks and stall based play on the fly while mid-throwing, still loops well when you want to toss a couple of those in there. Grind finish is awesome and crazy smooth in the hand, and stability is WAY improved over the V1 (which was what I was looking for most). Even redirects, it just stays right on plane, one of those throws you can just wildly toss around and try new things without worry about it going off axis as much. This is even more the all-arounder that I thought the V1 was when I first started throwing it. Throwing the light o-rings in the outermost groove and it becomes a powerhouse, with a feel like the best back in the day school-yard throw you’ve played with. And I can skin the gerbil on this, which is obviously critical, haha. I’m honestly finding a really hard time trying to think of anything to improve with it at this point… ---
