Comments: I just bought my new Babolat AeroPro Drive yesterday and I
strung it with Babolat Synthetic Gut 16 on 57 lbs. I played with it
first time today in the morning and seriously I am shocked with
disappointment. The strings never feel like they have been strung at 57
lbs because they move so much after every stoke that you got to re-
arrange them again and again. They have very little control and almost
null comfort. The feel is nowhere to be found. The only good thing about
the strings was some power and durability. I would not recommend these
strings to anyone.
Comments: These strings are terrible.Power: these strings are not very powerful, I've played with other synthetics
by Prince and Wilson and these simply do not match up. Control: there is none, the strings move so much that the ball is
literally unpredictable. Spin with these strings was non existent. Durability: I broke these strings in under 5 hours of play.
Value: low value.
Comments: I love this string for power! That being said I would not use it as mains and crosses. I use it along with
RPM Blast or Red Code. Comfort is average, spin is low to moderate, power is where this string really shines. I had a oversized
head and did experience some tension loss at about 3 weeks. I actually have some on my main racquet right now.
Comments: These strings came with my Wilson BLX Tempest 4 and I hate them. The ball feels like it's sliding off. I
also get shoulder pain. After 3 months of playing with these strings, I'm going back to my stringer to get something else.
Comments: The replacement of Super Fine Play changed not just the name, but feel as well. This string is a bit
stiffer than the old SFP it replaced, which is actually a good thing for the frames that I'm using. It still has good feel and a fair
price tag. It works wonder for my 2nd-tier racquets like K Tour, EXO3 Black, BLX 6.1 Team as main. Noticed these frames have
unconventional string holes, which requires stiffer string to counter the string flex movement and maintain control.
Comments: Worst strings I have ever used. If you're returning a kick serve, just 1 shot will move every string out of
place. It was ridiculous. My friends got extremely annoyed because I had to move at least 6 strings between every point. Then
you'd think the power, feel, control, or spin would be good as a tradeoff, but that's wrong. Everything else was subpar as well. I
understand these strings were very cheap but they're still not worth the money.
Comments: This string moves like crazy and is tough on the arm. There is very little comfort. My friend played with
this string for a couple of hours and experienced shoulder pain. The spin potential is just average. Power to control ratio is good.
After about 3 weeks, whether you broke the string or not, it's time to cut it out and restring. The strings move so much, all of your
control is gone. For the money, you can get something better. Try Prince Synthetic Gut with Duraflex or Prince Original Synthetic
Gut. You'll be much happier. Strung on a Dunlop M-fil 500 at 58 lbs.
