SLACKiES Thin – 100 pro strings for narrower gaps and precise slacks

Dave’s take

“The story behind SLACKiES is actually pretty simple. We shipped our iYoYos with these strings – and eventually so many players asked us what strings they were and where they could buy them separately that we added them to the shop.

This thinner version is slightly stiffer than our regular SLACKiES and works especially well if your YoYo has a somewhat narrower gap or you simply prefer less string material inside the gap.”

• Thinner construction → less material inside the gap, especially useful for narrower YoYo setups
• Slightly stiffer feel → maintains its shape well through slacks, hooks and whips
• Made for modern string tricks → controlled movement through technical tricks
• 100 strings per pack → plenty of replacements for serious practice

Why use a thinner string?

String thickness directly affects how much room the string takes up inside the YoYo gap. With narrower YoYos, a thick string can contact the response system more easily.

SLACKiES Thin reduce that effect while maintaining the controlled feel that made the original string popular for slack-style tricks.
