You guys should do a bracket-based tournament to determine which string is best! Seed the favorites, and see which string wins out based on certain criteria (maybe like durability, tension maintenance, spin potential, arm comfort, control, etc.).
I've never played with Cyclone but have been using Hyper-G for 2 years. I had ALU Power since about 2009 before that. If money and stringing were no object, I'd use ALU Power. But it's a 20 minute drive to my stringer and that means 80 minutes to drop off and pick up racquets. I get about three times the playtime with Hyper-G over ALU-Power. Hyper-G is easy on my arms, great spin, cheap, great control. From the comments in this video, I think that I'd be fine with both strings as far as playability but durability is killer with Hyper-G. I string it at 55 pounds and it plays like a board for about two hours and then drops to around 51-52 after that which is where I like it and then it holds tension for a long time. I typically get 25-30 hours out of Hyper-G. Troy's comments speak to what I love about Hyper-G.
The format of four players, two + two, is great as it's easy to keep the main string factors in mind.
Comparison long overdue, thanks for this ♥️
More doubles points please! 🤩
I've played extensively with both. Cyclone is nice the first 3-4 hours but then the tension drops massively, making it difficult to control. Hyper G has better tension maintenance, but is sometimes a bit inconsistent, with the ball shooting off at a high angle unexpectedly. My string of choice is Head Lynx Tour (black), which is basically a more consistent version of Hyper G.
Do more of these comparisons!
I’m using Hyper G as my mains and Cyclone as crosses at 50 and 47 lbs respectively. Plays well for control and power.
Hehe, when I was still playing poly/poly hybrids, my go-to string was always Cyclone Tour 18. I prefer strings more lively with pocketing. I never did get used to the stiffness of Hyper-G, though I didn't try lowering the tension a lot with it. Nowadays, I use a gut/poly hybrid, Luxilon Natural Gut 16L with a slippery poly cross like Toroline Wasabi or ReString Zero, though if I want a bit more power I use Luxilon ALU Power. To me, I just can't give up the pocketing and feel of a natural gut. I also love the longevity of gut since I'm not a string breaker and it basically never loses its elasticity.
It's $130 vs $170 per reel for me. I'll restring more often with Cyclone.
Your racquet will probably not like that.
Depending on which one it is, the frame starts to suffer after 20 to 30 string jobs.
So I would rather look for the best long term playability, except If you break strings all the time.
wow does it cost that ex in the USA?
dang, it's a $50 for cyclone reel for me here and about $110 for hyper G reel in asia
Lovely video guys! And 1.30 gauge 👌🏼
Tried them both while searching for "the" string to put into my Ezone DR98.
Cyclone plays and feels like a Luxilon Element, Hyper-G more like Poly Tour Pro. Couldn't "gel" with either. One is too "soft", the other one tries to be something, but it's only 70-80% anywhere near what would be ideal. I put Alupower in the Ezone and now use PolyTourRev in a 97D.
How does Solinco Revolution compare to Hyper G? Debating whether to try.
What about Solinco Confidential in comparison to Hyper G and Cyclone?
Cyclone is a better fit for my game than Hyper G. I am a counter puncher and I feel the sharp edges of Hyper G tend to grab the ball a little bit too much during defense. Also Cyclone does have better feel than Hyper G. But I do recommend Hyper G to a lot of my friends since Hyper G is one of the most all-around poly on the market.
dead on.. I think I serve better with Hyper G and playability lasts longer. I feel like I have to cut out the Cyclone and when I do the string doesn't move but it also gets pretty hard to control, but like Troy said off the stringer Cyclone is pretty great. Cyclone blk is the best one, red is great but diminishes quickly although in 18x20 frames like a strike or blade it works pretty well.
Seems like you have two reviewers who already preferred hyper G
Troy looking fit buddy! Quick question-did you ever weight up the vcore 98 sand beige to tour specs, and was playability comparable?
Thanks! I did weight up the VCORE 98 Sand Beige, not an exact match to our VCORE 98 Tour test racquet but pretty close. I definitely noticed a more solid stable feel on volleys, and the added plow through was a big benefit on groundstrokes, especially the slice. In stock form, because the VCORE 98 is so spin friendly and high launch angle, I felt like my groundstrokes were sitting up a bit much and lacking some penetration through the court. So I feel like that improved somewhat with the increased swingweight (currently 330 swingweight with 1.25 RPM Blast and a TW dampener). Troy, TW
@@tenniswarehouseThanks!
I have played both and students habe played both. Like the comments. One thing to say is hyperG is too sharp, and Cyclone is gear shaped and not as sharp and can be strung in hybred with gut. This as a cost savings over Wilson Champions Choice
hey guys, could you please help me? I am looking for a string most similar to polyfibre hightec premium 1.30. Because it was my favorite string, but I cant find it to buy in my country 😢.. I love that clack clack that it has
Polyfibre made some very soft feeling polys. So I would recommend considering strings like Yonex Poly Tour Air, ISOSPEED Cream, and Volkl V-Star. Troy, TW
Head lynx tour vs tour bite
💪🏽💯plz
Lynx tour all day
Wonder if Michelle has ever tried a Kevlar/ Multi hybrid.
I've used Prince ProBlend Duraflex and love it! And previously in the 90s used kevlar when I was breaking tons of strings and before poly was really a thing. Which explains a lot about my taste in strings and stiff racquets!
Michelle, TW
@@tenniswarehouse Same here. I've been a PS 6.1 Classic user for decades. Always strung with a Kevlar/Multi hybrid. I've been looking for a full poly, or poly/multi hybrid alternative, but nothing feels close enough. You have any suggestion?
What are you looking for in a switch? And have you tried Hyper G? Lynx Tour? Kirschbaum Super Smash? Let me think while you tell me why you are looking to make a switch :)
Michelle, TW
@@tenniswarehouse I'm just trying to find something as controlled and predictable as Kevlar, but with a little more power and maybe spin potential. I have used both Hyper-G and Lynx Tour, and I prefer Lynx Tour. I always felt that Hyper-G is too unpredictable at times.
I have an Ezone 98 with Poly Tour Pro @ 55lb and I really like how it feels. But I only like that string on that racquet. My main racquets right now are the PS97 v14, and the TF40 18x20 and the PTP does not feel good at all on those for some reason.
Is it shaped or round Hyper G?
The original shaped version. Troy, TW
Both strings come in soft, could review that
There are NUMEROUS other good strings out there apart from these 2.
How easily people get influenced by what they see because someone says "this is great..." and buys into a particular string and find they can't move away from it because they have now gotten too used to it.
Definitely, but these two have been very popular over the years. And for the most part very good value strings, compared to some of the Luxilon or Babolat polys. Troy, TW
