Yes I have this string on a lot of my racquets! The most comfortable poly for sure! Spin is decent for this type of comfort poly and control is surprisingly good.
Two other underrated budget polys are MSV Focus Hex 16L/1.23 (get the 1.23 for more spin than the 17g/1.27) and maybe #1 is Signum Pro Plasma Hextreme 16L. Both have great feel, power, and durability to go with the spin factor (check TW string tools online). I've been playing the performance vs price game for a while now and so far both Signum Pro Plasma Hextreme 16L and MSV Focus Hex 16L/1.23 come out on top. If I had to pick one, I'd go Pro Plasma Hextreme, but they are almost identical. Honorable mention goes to Head Lynx Tour 17g which is also great (but more $$$).
A great synthetic gut for crosses or even mains, is Pro Supex Spiral Flex, although it's tough to find in the USA. It's mostly available on eBay and from Europe. Reels are relatively inexpensive, but it's hard to find 40ft sets so people can try a set of strings out before buying a full reel. Maybe you can get the manufacturer to send you a single set, or two, for review. It might even lead to more reviews on other Pro Supex strings which are sort of undiscovered and very good.
Hi Alex, thanks for your review! Which one do you think is more comfortable - Element or Volkl Cyclone Tour 16g? I am currently deciding between the 2. Thanks for your input!
@AlexTennisChannel I normally play with Syngut (Diadem). The Element string was very promoted here in Europe, so I thought I’ll give it a try. But I felt not so much comfort as said and I got arm pain from it. I think poly is not my type of string. I used a full bed in my racket.
Forget Element. Too $$$. Try Prince Warrior Response. $5 at Tennis Warehouse. Everything Element is at a better price. Warrior Response also makes a great cross. It feels stiff when stringing, but actually plays softer like Element, so is good to add feel but without feeling mushy like some traditional cross string types. It's actually built with a wrapped core design like some syn guts, but it's a full on poly. It just plays softer.

I really liked the MSV hex and the lynx tour when I did the review on my channel! I should try the Signum soon🎾🎾
Thanks Coach Alex! 🙏 always an education! 🎾👍
Thank you so much!🎾🎾

Element! Völkl Cyclone Tour is comfortable but mainly made for spin. Element main purpose is comfort so you can’t miss with this one🎾🎾
Tried it in my Pro Staff V14 didn’t like it, too though.
Have you tried multi or natural gut?

Oh okay so if you want to move from the syngut (you don’t have to) you should go with a multi string!
@@AlexTennisChannel What would be a good multi-string to try?
@tennismoos6448 maybe velocity or Xcel!

Ok that could be an interesting review! Thanks for watching 🎾🎾
