Type 12 or type 10?
Type 12 yo-yo strings are thicker than type 10 strings because they contain an extra strand that is then doubled over. Usually type 12 is the preferred choice for a wide gap yo-yo. However, some people prefer a very thinner string for multiple string-layer tricks. The more noticeable difference between the two is that a type 12 is slightly denser allowing it to hold loops more easily and it has a slightly firmer feel. The nearest equivalent to a Hamstring type 10 is a standard type 6 after it is worn in.
