Great video - you mention how you hybrid some of these 7 strings, so I would love to see a video on your favorite hybrids. Keep up the good work.
I love watching your videos! The vibes are so fun and very useful informations
Absolutely love that new rpm power seems to do everything very well. Also a fan of yonex poly tour fire. Can't use the stiffer polys due to arm trouble unless I chuck them in a natural gut hybrid.
Rpm Blast and Lynx Tour are my 2 favorite strings for sure. I love dead stiff poly and have never been able to stray away. Even if it meant easier swinging
Genesis Black Magic and Toalson Polygut, just for trainning they are great both!! Also Kirschbaum Pro Line 2 is always great.
Great reviews, Wilson. Greetings from Malaysia!
I have used the Volkl Cyclone for about two years. And before that I used RPM Team for several months until it discountinued. I'm a 4.0-4.5 player, and I couldn't tell the difference between the two. But Cyclone is a much better bargain with similar performance. In the last few months, I decided to change to softer poly because my elbow pain and wrist pain have gotten worse. I started using Volkl Cyclone Tour. Noticably softer than the regular Cyclone, so now I'm in the process of finding the right tension. I doubt the RPM Spin Power will be much different than the Cyclone Tour especially given the value. The Cyclone Tour is also better than the Solinco Soft Bite and the Yonex Tour Air with better feel and better predictability when I test played all three of them. I guess I have to try the Confidential now.
My go-to string is Luxilon Element 1.25 and it’s on your list! Love the feel of it especially on dense patterns. On my Gravity Tour (which is a dense pattern), no loss of control whatsoever even when strung very low and i can still generate some decent topspin! I used to use 4G, but had some arm issues and switched to Element. Awesome video!
Trying to pick a string and looking a lot at the 4g and Element. Did you ever consider trying the 4g soft instead of the Element?
I really like the Genesis’ white magic. It’s probably the softest poly I’ve played with.
The black magic is also a good alternative.
I'm not a big fan of monofilament strings but of the ones I used before, I really liked the Kirschbaum line, especially the Competition and Pro Line Ii, as well as the Signum Pro Poly Plasma.
I used reels of topspin cyberblue and cyberflash back in the day (years ago). Had some pro supex big ace in there once in a while. Now I’m more recreational and goto multi
I used to play with Babolat RPM Blast, great string, but only for the first 3-4 hours, then it goes completely dead on me. Then I switched to RS Lyon and never looked back, awesome string. I'd like to try the fabled ALU Power, but I'm afraid I'd like it, cause I can't afford it :) I break strings roughly after 6-7h of play, and play with an RF97.
Well, I haven’t tried that many and I mostly hybrid gut in mains. I prefer kirschbaum pro line II especially since I stocked up when it was half price. I prefer it over vokl cyclone which does bag out quickly. Lately, I’ve been using gut in the mains with confidential in the crosses in my Ezone .
Love black widow. Tons of spin yet very comfortable.
Recently tried the new Grapplesnake CES and liquid neon dust hybrid setup and loved it; I get so much spin, power and control with it, it's my go to string now. #2 Signum Pro Firestorm 17G, very nice round poly with good feel and spin. #3 Yonex poly tour pro 17G, great feel and power. #4 Luxilon 4G it feels great but not clearly better than the others and way too expensive.
I miss the Dunlop ice string... Thinking of going with the black widow. But definitely trying a few of these! Thank you for the info!
Confidential is great. Used it in an 18/20 pro Kennex redondo and got some great spin, comfort, feel.
Put Solinco Confidential full bed in my new Yonex 98+, amazing, thanks for opening my eyes to these strings, love them, really love them.
I am looking at trying the Solinco Confidential in my Yonex 98+ as well ... do you know what tension you had yours strung at? And what gauge did you use?
Hi There! My name is Sefer. Thanks for sharing your precious knowledge upon the wonderful-tennis. I play tennis since 2004. I feel still doubtful about knowing when it is the time to change strings. Some says you should pay attention to how your racquet makes sound when you hit at the strings. Some says push the sting lines up and down and try to see if it moves back...I think many player would like to hear your way to decide when it is the time for restringing the racquet as I do very much. Thanks again for all.
Consdering the price I think volkl works for me. Both cyclone n cyclone tour. Regular cyclone for control/tension maintenance and cyclone tour for comfort/power.
Good choices! I’m a big fan of @dunlop blackwidow , good string, under rated. Tough on the hands to string though! 😩
Thanks for the video. As you said it’s all subjective. Now what is your favorite synthetic, multifilament, and natural gut? Could also expand this to top 5 overgrips, bags, socks, and other fun tennis stuff.
luxilon big banger original for me, has the most sticky feel out of all the poly's i've tried, think it helps grip the ball better for more spin.
it's so good out of the box but the tension drop is insane
Very informative as looking to restring my TF40 with a poly as have Triax in at present came with racquet.
i have used y-tex several times and diadem several times, both very good strings
Good review. I was a longtime tester of Confidential too (hope a few of the color options come out). Pocketing is incredible. Feel and spin. As far as power, I think you should amend your comments - I’d say it’s sufficient - but not like RPM Blast or Luxillon Alu. Rec players who don’t create much of their own might be disappointed.
I completely agree with you. Not as powerful as Alu or Rpm. I am kinda what should I do with the reel of confidential. Dropped the tension from 54 to 49 but still less power than 53 Alu or Rpm.
My favorite strings, Alu Power, Hyper-G, Cyclone, RPM Blast, Head Hawk
Love the comment on the ones that are tough to string. That's something I keep note of... if it plays the same as something else, but is more $$ or tougher to string, then it won't get used as often.
A setup I like is Black Code (17) mains, Gamma Pro (17 or 16) in the crosses.
Tried most strings on the market, searching for string Nirvana. My #1 string is Yonex Poly Tour Pro 120.
Oh yeah My favorite is poly tour pro 120!
Can you share the pros/cons for this Yonex string? I'm trying also to find right string for me
@@K4R3N Here are some reviews with ratings of the string in 1.25mm stringforum.net/ratings.php?sdnr=4287&count=1
yep agree yonex poly tour pro is a terrific string
@@K4R3N tension maintenance is not the greatest on this string; which is typical of a softer poly. But it plays pretty soft for a poly and has some good pop and decent spin.
Head hawk touch is the best, soft predictable and control oriented with great feel
Just getting back into tennis more and hoping to play more USTA after covid. Hoping to so string myself. I've always played with hybrids (poly main, syn gut or multi or nat gut crosses) since I got competitive in high school.
So I'm a bit nervous about full bed poly as I've always been used to a bit of the arm cushion of a hybrid set up with much of the poly spin on the mains. I just got a new racket strung up with solinco revolution on the mains, and I'm excited to try hyper g and confidential next times..
Thanks it is good to know! :)
Ok so I just finished tying Confidential.
Cause of arm issues I tied the confidential in the mains at 56 with a synth gut in the crosses at 56 in a Pure Strike 16x19,
I absolutely loved it, the control and spin is absolutely amazing, Not too stiff and the synth gut helped soften the stringbed but the confidential is my now new main poly string. The confidence I got was great and I could feel the ball leaving with huge amounts of top spin, I really enjoyed this string. 1HBH slices were pretty sick too and knifing them down the line the ball stayed low with a lot of spin on the ball.
SO glad I gave this a go. Time to buy a reel
which synthetic i should use. i play full confidential 16L
Tony Xiong my personal one is Babolat Synth Gut, The Technifibre Synth gut is also very good, I dont think you could tell the difference in these when used as a cross in a hybrid
can you pls vlog of your 5 top selling multifilament or syn gut (i.e. non-poly) tennis strings. thanks.
Hyper-G
Tour Bite
RPM Blast
Black Widow
Poly Tour Spin
Rpm power*
My top 5 is Yonex Polytour, Yonex Polytour, Yonex Polytour, Yonex Polytour, Yonex Polytour. The feel is great, it lasts, doesnt loose tension and easy to put on the racquet.
I love your channel... it's kinda like a dialogue with someone when you can't talk to people because they look at you like you are going to give them TB if you get within 6 feet of them... or you have to stay locked at home because idiots are burning the city.
Great video. Can you do one of your favorite arm friendly strings ?
My string of joice (for the moment 😉) is Head Lynx Tour. Keeps tension for long, good spin, feel. Not too much power but the harder your opponent is hitting the faster the string reacts...
Loving Head Lynx Tour in my 2020 Pure Aero VS.
@@timbaker9830 what tension do you use for your pure aero VS?
Volkl Cyclone string comes in a few different colors. In result, the color of Cyclone string gives it a different feel, especially between Black (stiffer/firmer feel) and Orange(softer feel) . My current favorite strings is Volkl Cyclone Orange - 18g, and I have been using this string since 2017. Volkl cyclone cost and soft feel makes the string a winner for me. Majority of polyester strings should not be played with for extensive amount of time, since Poly's tend to die and in result become stiff and brittle, the end result will be arm, wrist, and/or shoulder problems. With this said, Volkl is a great choice. Excellent videos by Tennis Spin!
You can try the tour version if you want the black string. Tour in general is softer then the regular cyclone.
Alright:)) good selection
Kirschbaum pro line evolution is my go to.
Also the second would be solinco revolution
I use Kirchbaum too, it never breaks, and cost effective too.
@@TimmieTennis yup and along with durability it has excellent tension maintenance. Even the soft ones
I have used the Kirschbaum Pro Line Evolution (53lbs in pure strike 100, too loose) and enjoyed it and then tried the ALU Power 125 (pure strike 16x19 at 50 and 52) and it's a lot stiffer, holds tension well too. The Pro Line seemed softer and more spin friendly too...how do you think the Hyper G might play...or the confidential too?
I hit flat, but working to brush up on the ball more on a 98sq ft frame so trying to see how to get more bite when I hit.
Suggestions you have? thank you.
After cracking volley after volley on Monday seems my arm for a good workout (maybe tennis elbow or just a good forearm workout)...could be my ALU Power strings, now I'm looking at different string before Jan 2021.
@pranjal Kumar why those 2 and how do they compare?
I’ve been playing with the ALU power rough for years. By far my favourite poly string.
how much tension do you have on your racket?
noah arbab my go to tension is 50lbs
I use Alu power (classic, no rough or soft) too. At 25-27 kg. Love it. Even when dead.
thefridgeman a great string
I use a full bed of this on my Pure Aero at 54 lbs, great string but it lacks feel on volleys, also I will sail some harder forehands long. Would you recommend any hybrids with this or a different rough string that is softer but with same spin?
These videos are great. And even better to watch at 1.25 speed. No complains though :)
I’ve always played with a full bed of polly @53lbs. Started with Pro Hurricane, then Alu Power, Alu power Rough, tried RPM blast but now my string of choice is Luxilon 4G. It has the characteristics of all my previous strings, has great pop, spin and control but string tension is by far the best.
4g maintains feel and tension like nothing else i've tried
Marc Gabor The best mate. 👍🏻
ALU power does not drop for me 125 Alu Power string it at 55-57lbs it will hold
Please Kindly, do a video on ( Wilson Clach 100 L ). Thank you.
Völkl Cyclone 16 gauge, lasts between 1 to 2 weeks. I do wish poly strings can be recycle so I can cut them out weekly, even for lesser performance.
just tried Technifibre Triax 17g played 10 sets of doubles. I like it a lot.
Topspin CyberBlue!!! 😍
Genesis black magic and tour bite is a great string also .
I enjoy your channel can you do a comparison on your top 5 poly/ multi or syn gut hybrids for spin and comfort . Thanks ed
MSV Focus Hex for me and my clients.
Never seen Solinco Confidential here in Malaysia. But my current polyester strings are from Pro's Pro brand.
would be interested in (your opinion) what's the best racquet and string setup for a string braker with short fast swing style, compared to a long/full swing style.
I just got a VCore 100 with Hyper G. Not sure if it's the racket or the string (I'd been using older PT57a frames with Luxilon Element or natural gut / poly hybrid) - but this thing RIPS! I'm so beyond happy with it that I'm not sure if I'll be able to bring myself to try another string when these die.
love the way you said 'ocho' :D
Yup, agreed....ask 10 people, get 10 totally different responses.
There's so many different factors to consider and so many different brands these days, including many newer/less known companies. Aside from cost, there's also the racquet, gauge availability and so on.
Haven't tried RPM power or Solinco confidential yet. Generally, not a fan of Babolat polys, but I like Hyper G. However, have tried at least 50+ different polys!!
I wouldn't put any of those in my top list and obviously can't comment on power or confidential.
Cheers. 🎾🎾🎾
If you have tried 50+ different polys and cannot put any of them in your Top List, then which strings would you put in your Top List?
Signum pro, tornado..,good feel, comfortable, produces lots of spin....lasts me about 10 hours..,easy to string.
Signum Pro X-Perience. Very similar to Hyper G, with a bit more power and at a way better price point (the reel is only about half of the price).
The string was released in 2018 and already became very popular over here in Germany.
my favourite string
Could you please compare Hyper G with RPM blast? really deciding between the two. I heard many good things about HyperG but want to know which is more for me.
Best string for me is the Babolat Pro Hurricane followed by Luxilon 4G (both 16L). I wonder how a hybrid of the two will feel like..
gonna try one of your strings.
Thanks! Have you ever tried alu power SOFT? I think it is a great string.
hey, as always a great review! what is your opinion on the tecnifibre ice code? best regards
I’ve really started to love Luxilon 4G in my hybrid setup
Bertone Beta I use Wilson Natural Gut 16 gauge and Luxilon 4G rough. I’m going for soft next.
I like Yonex Poly Tour Pro and Lux Ali Power Rough.
Dunlop Black Widow is the #1 seller in my pro shop
Hi, great videos. Learn a lot. How do you compare Luxilon Alu Power with Luxilon Element? Have been playing with the first one for many years
loving luxilon 125 Alu Power (ice blue)
Razor code a close 2nd to Confidential. Alu Power 3rd but only for Hybrid setups
I like and use Hyper G's, but ALU Powers for the first 5 hours are the best I've hit with. Unfortunately after one or two hitting sessions, the strings just drop off for me. Meanwhile, Hyper G's are almost as good, and last 3-4X longer.
Solinco tourbite, 1,15mm
Here are my top 5 strings: Solinco Tour Bite; it replaced the Luxilon Alu Power in my book, especially since the price rocketed after Wilson bought the company. Luxilon Savage Black: if you wanna spin, you are served. Volkl Cyclone Tour: in a hybrid, this string in the crosses makes wonder, and what a feeling..! Head Sonic Pro or Sonic Pro Edge: many of my cuustomers keep asking for it(great feel, spin, snaps back fast,etc.) Babolat RPM Blast 17 ga.: A string loved by the majority of Tennis Warehouse workers, and whose reputation is established. Finally, being in charge of our beloved clay courts, I HAVE TO include ASHAWAY KEVLAR 16 ga.: it saved quite a few bucks to my string breakers, so that they don't have to pay me a visit evry week.
Can you please make a video of the type of string, tension, racket of the Top 10 players? @Tennis Spin
hyper G is my go-to string
Luxilon alu power soft.. softer than the regular alu but not too soft like some of the newer polys out there.
My setup:
Wilson RF97A
Natural Gut mains / AluRough crosses
Or
natural gut mains / RPM blast crosses
Found out that for me AluRough plays best and only one downside is that these setups are quite expensive..
Need an updated version of this video.
Hi Harry,
You should give it a try for Signum pro-Xtreme power, outbreak, 124mm.
I do like RPM Power. It can create more spin than ALU Power but it have less comfort.
Harry, I'm currently enjoying my full bed of BW17 at 46lbs on my VCore 89. Any advice on what to hybrid Black Widow with? I'm thinking of trying it with wilson sensation 17. What's a good setup for tension that you would recommend from main BW and cross as sensation?
You seem to like strings with sharp edges; my favorite poly of all time is the LXL ALU Power 16L whenever I can afford them.
What makes the Gamma Ocho and Dunlop Black Widow especially difficult to string?
Can anyone please help? I bought a used strung racket off eBay and I loved the hybrid string it came with. Only problem is I cannot figure out what cross string was used. Main string is a generic poly. There were no markings on the cross string and I could tell it was recently strung.
The string in question is wrapped in a red protective layer with like a silver swirl of ribbons running along it .
As the string wears out it frays only the red outside liner and underneath is a clear string that appears to be poly. The fraying is not like what a multi does, rather it’s just the red protective layer that frays.
Does anyone have any idea what this string is?! The eBay seller doesn’t know either,
Strings I’ve bought so far that I thought they were but turns out it is not..
-technifibre x one biphase red
- Wilson sythnetic gut power red
-Dunlop S-Gut red
- Gosen tecgut remplir
Please help me find out what string this is
how about alu power rough ! great feel, amazing spin but the durability it's some thing to consider
@Leche....my go to string if cost wasn't a factor. And I think durability is fine.
Cheers. 🎾🎾🎾
Can you please compare this strings : gamma moto, gamma zo dart, tourna big hitter black, sonic pro edge and dunlop black widow
Is there a string similar to the Solinco Hyper G but in black because the green doesnt look great in my racket
How would you compare Tec. Black Code to Confidential?
Hyper G... I definitely like it better than Confidential, even though confidential looks much better on my racquet
Ziming Xie just stung up with hyper g for the first time but only got to hit with it once before lockdown. Seemed great for the hour I had to try it out haha
I’m a fan of the hyper g green. Looks wild in my red VCORE
I hate Hyper G. Tried it 2 separate times a while ago, but it feeled weird! Think it was too springy.
Zak Vince agree. I detested the string. Lixilon Alu power is best string ever made.
KomenTennis that’s the racquet I have :) Vcore 98
Best budget poly in my mind: signum pro and technifibre red code
With what other string do you hybrid the Black Widow?
Which of them are low powered? I play with Black Code at 24/24 kg and I like the control it has. How does it differ from the Solinco Confidential?
You should look into carrying y tec they have a great line of poly and soft co poly
garbage
How about alu power alu power rough big banger original and prince kevlar and synthetic gut hybrid pack.Thank you.
What do you recommend to hybrid Black Widow with? Any suggestion tension on both main & cross?
Huge fan man! Wanted to know if you go full with Solinco Confidential or do you go hybrid? Thanks man!
Lux 4G, Babolat RPM Blast, Luxilon VIBE, Head Sonic Pro Edge, Ashaway Zyex Monogut with honorable mention: Head Hawk Touch, Genesis Trisonic, Luxilon Element, luxilon Alu power. I really like all of them. But, price is a factor in purchaces.
Luxilon 4g rough 16l - 4g is so good as a hybrid with gut in the mains - holds tension really well is slippery, plays well at lower tensions and the muted feel compliments gut perfectly. Also, it just lasts FOREVER especially as a x-string w/gut. Regular 4g is great too but 4g rough is just a little tighter feeling. 4g soft is too lively and loses tension faster. 16l being just a little smaller than 16 makes sense for a x string (at least in my mind it does)
Pro's Pro is my go too brand..I use it as well as my clients... so much of cost savings at equal performance..do the math..enjoy the extra $..and use it to buy another frame...pair of shoes..etc..
Which of their strings do you recommend
How would Babolat bat gut crossed with Confidential pair? I’m looking for the best poly to cross
