Comments: Used this by a recommendation from a professional stringer after his return from the us open who suggested it as an alternative to Luxilon 4G Soft 16. It had nice bite but for some reason felt muted for me. The spin response was significant but I felt the responsiveness was low and not for me as I string high on my Head Extreme Pro. Durability was average. I'm a 4.5 player who hits heavy topspin.

Comments: I used to love it, but I have mixed feelings at the moment. In a more controlled racquet such as my Ai 98, I get nice spin, control, and a muted but flexible feel. On the contrary, when I put it in the Babolat Pure Drive, it felt springy at times and I lost control easily. I don't know what to make of it. I think I should increase the tension from 52 to 54 or 55 on the Pure Drive. I thought 52 would work because I had 52 in my Ai 98 but I suppose it's not so.

Comments: Awesome string! Holds the tension well and the ball pocketing is excellent such that you can predict where you shot is going to land with pin point accuracy. I do agree with some previous comments on lowering the tension to get more juice out of the string. I strung the string in my black RF97 at 48/46 lbs.

Comments: I am playing twice a week with great 17 year old semi-pro players. I use a heavily modified Babolat Pure Drive Team strung with BB ALU Power at 53 lbs. I won this string at a local competition. After 4 sets I got golfers elbow. Never had any kind of medical problems. My season is over. Never ever I will buy anythink from Solinco again!
From: Frank, 10/16

Comments: This string is ridiculous! Absolutely insane amounts of topspin. It's almost too much! I had to aim 2 feet higher than normal after coming from Yonex PTP. The ball was exploding off the court. Crazy how different I had to play to accommodate for the spin. I've only played one time with Hyper G so far and haven't decided yet if I'll stick with it. I also recently hit with Lux ALU soft and loved that string at 50/52 lbs. I'm a strong 4.5 all court player. 5.0 soon.

Comments: This string pops the ball. The only other string coming close is Babolat Pro Hurricane Tour which I used for a many years. I strung this at 52 lbs in a new Pure Aero Tour and does it ever bite and pocket the ball nicely. Rips groundies with tons of spin and kicks the ball wide on the serve. Has held tension nicely and after 6+ hours of aggressive 4.5- 5.0 drilling maintains its playability. Only concern is the aesthetic. Some like the green, but I would prefer it in a black or royal blue.

Comments: Great string! Switched from Pacific X-cite to Hyper G 16. Not the softest of polys but it has masses of spin. Holds tension very well. I use this in a Pure Aero strung at 56 lbs. The string excels the harder you swing. I'm a 5.0 player aggressive baseliner.

Comments: I'm 15, I have been playing tennis since I was 3-4 years old. I'm currently using the Head Radical REV (customized) with Lux ALU Power Rough strung a 50 pounds. It's a beast but you want to know whats not "beast," the price. I've been looking for a cheaper string that offers really good spin, control and durability since I am a string breaker. I have the Nadal swing that comes up and around my head so spin might be not much of an issue. Anyway, a buddy of mine recently ordered Solinco Hyper G 16G. He has it on his Radical MP strung at 50 pounds as well. And I loved this string! Spin, spin, spin and control, control, control and guess what? Durability too! It's perfect for my swing style, droping right down with lots of explosion! This one is a little softer than ALU Power Rough and is much cheaper and durable. Overall, I really suggest you try this string. I'm a 4.5 tennis player playing in highschool.
From: Joshua, 3/16

Comments: Great string. Probably the best string I have used that is good for every stroke. It is stiffer, but feels good. After about 6 hours, it does not move in my Wilson Blade 98S, strung at 50 pounds. It is notching, but it still grips the ball very well. Topspin is awesome. I can spin the ball and hit flat shots (really lower over the net spin shots that penetrate through the court). I wish it came in gray, silver, or black.

Comments: I recently had this strung in my Babolat Pure Aero Team. So far the performance is great, lots of spin and very responsive. Additionally there is a lot control from these strings.
From: Tristan, 11/15

Comments: This is the best string I've played with. Tried both the 16 and 16L. Lots of pop and spin but softer than Tour Bite. Three players I work with switched as well. A 45 year old 4.5 player switched from Tour Bite because of the arm comfort. One nationally ranked junior moved from Lux BB to Hyper G 16L because of the jump in power and another went from Head Reflex to Hyper G 16 because of the way the ball stayed on the strings longer. Everyone loves the green. Tried the 18 once for fun, but it broke way too quickly.
From: John, 11/15

Comments: Awesome string! It plays very similar to Tour Bite but a touch softer. It's super responsive and has tons of spin. The color is amazing too! The ball tends to get lost in the string bed giving you that edge! I was using Tour Bite Soft in a hybrid because of arm problems. But with Hyper G I go with a full bed strung three pounds looser. I have always been a big Solinco fan when it comes to strings and overgrips. All in all, a great string that's super arm friendly with the same shape as Tour Bite. It feels so similar to Tour Bite Soft, it could be called Tour Bite Extra Soft XD.
