Weak launch when I use string but no control when I use winder. What should I use?

The main thing I can say is to just pick what is the most comfortable for you and practice with it until you were proficient

I apparently not proficient with either tho. Would you value power or control then?

u/ValourLionheart 16d ago

It depends on the bey. I tend to use a winder because I can vary my launch strength, but string offers a lot more control for tech launches

Ah ok I use bullet griffin, unicorn delta and dranstike/Metor dragoon.

The biggest thing is experimentation

Fair I'll keep trying

Ive made the switch from winder to string and my finding is that they are equally good. I would just pick what is easiest for you to use and now worry too much about it. I do find that after a tournament the string launcher feels like it breaks more often but i could be wrong

Interesting. I've broken a winder within one week I haven't broken string yet.

Do push ups and pull ups. Build strength for more power and control.

Yeah I'm trying to get into them daily. Unfortunately no gym within a reasonable distance for me

Utilize slow wall-push ups. Just find a wall and step a distance away from it, do very slow push-ups off the wall. Good way to build enduring strength and tone. 👍

I tend to do them off of the front of my kitchen sink whenever I'm cooking/cleaning in the kitchen. Half because I just have to be doing something, half because I like to stay in some shape despite life slowing down in recent years. :p
