Need help choosing yoyo strings?
Are you baffled by the different types of strings? Can't decide which to get?

Despite the variety of strings on offer, any yo-yo string by any manufacturer can be used with any yo-yo. If you are not sure which string to get, then a good choice is the 100% cotton or the 'slick' poly/cotton blend strings. Colour is down to your personal preference. Brighter colours can be easier to see when learning tricks.

You should change your yo-yo strings regularly (as a guide, after every few hours of yoyo play). For safety, always change your string when it becomes frayed.

The different yoyo string types such as type 6 or type 8 refer to the way the yoyo strings are made. As a rule of thumb, the higher the number the thicker the string. The different string types and materials do slightly affect yoyo play.

Yo-yo strings vary in length, and most players need to cut them to the size appropriate to their height and playing preference.

For more information and help on yoyo strings please see the Euro-Yo Yo-Yo Help Section. There is also more information available on the euro-yo forum http://www.euro-yo.com/phpBB3/.
