Overview

This textured co-poly offers maximum control on full swings. It will give big hitters the confidence to swing bigger when creating pace. The textured surface puts a tight grip on the ball for added spin. Great as a full set or in a hybrid.

 

Kirschbaum pre-stretches this string in order to improve tension maintenance and playability duration.

Excellent stringExceptional control string. Adequate spin, good life. Starts a bit stiff but feel improves as tension stabilizes. Feel is just ok but all other qualities make up for it. Will keep using.

Comments: No specific factor that make it outstanding, but it is such a good all-around string that I use it for steady play in the mains with gut crosses. The control and enough spin is reliable and gets you into a confident rhythm. The playability is amazing for a poly. My other polys get a bit erratic after a couple of weeks, but his I might restring after a couple of months, the tension does not seem to change.

Comments: Been using ALU Power Spin by Luxilon. Tried these on a whim. The power is lower but they give amazing control, way more than Luxilons in my opinion.

Comments: Probably my favorite string at this time. Awesome ball pocketing and feel. Above average spin potential. If it ever goes on sale again -- buy it! I string it at 42 lbs in my Yonex Ezone Xi 100 and am a 4.5 player.
From:Billy, 6/20/17

Comments: Excellent control-oriented string. I'd recommend stringing this 5-7 lbs lower than your normal poly tension. Everything about this string is excellent. The bite/spin I get is perfect. Not as much as say BHB7 or BHBR, but on par with ALU Power Rough. The durability is the best I've come across by far. This string holds its playability longer than any other poly I've played with (I have not played with 4G yet). It has a nice crisp feel with no discomfort at all. It is one of the least powerful polys I've played with so keep that in mind when stringing it up. I'd highly recommend it when it's on sale, 2 for the price of 1. Otherwise $13.90 is a bit steep.First Name: Eric 4.0

Comments: Superb control, although a bit stiff at the beginning. After a few pounds of tension loss, it settles very nicely and plays well for more than 20 hours now. Strung on a Pure Drive at 53 lbs, I'm a 4.5 player.
From:Angel, 4/15

Comments: Strung it up in my IG Prestige Pro. A cheaper quality alternative to ALU Rough. Offers adequate spin, but does not come close to the spin offered by Tour Bite or Spiky Shark. Definitely worth picking up if it is still on sale for the 2 for 1 price.
From:Adam, 11/14

Comments: I strung this on my Head Graphene Speed MP at 46 lbs and I really like it. It gives me good control, above average power for a poly, good feel and good tension maintenance. Spin was good but not as good as other shaped strings. I am really happy with it.
