17 gauge LXN ECO Power doesn't last longWilson/Luxilon needs to make a 1.30 version of ECO to combat the durability problems.
Luxilon ECO PowerExcellent combination of power and control, very durable at the same time.
Breaks way to easyThis string will not stay on the market very long I bet. My daughter is by no means a top spin hitter. She is all power and in 6 years broken 1 string. I usually replace the string from going dead before she breaks one. Switched her to this string in her mains with element IR soft in crosses. In a little over a month she has broken 4 eco strings in her racquets. One just after a single hour lesson. Didn’t look worn or anything just a clean snap. Recycled poly plastic or anything like those materials that are recycled the weaker they become each time they are recycled. Will not buy again
great cross stringBought a couple of sets of these for my Luxilon customers and they have been a big hit. Very comfortable for a poly. I use them as a cross with gut or Multifilament mains. My customers tell me that they are easy on the arm, have good bite on the ball, good feel and so far, pretty good life as they are getting a few weeks of play out of them at 3-5 times per week.
Happily SurprisedI expected to hate this string but good Heavens this is such a nice poly! Tons of grip and spin very crisp feel without being too hard on the elbow!
Upcycling works!
Fantastic performance but lifespan is shortI tried Eco Power in a 2012 Pure Drive strung at 45/43lbs on an electronic constant pull machine. This is a great string for 4 hours. I provides excellent bite on the ball allowing it to generate some wicked action on groundstrokes. Feel and pocketing is very good. I had no issues with comfort. The only knock is the poor durability and rapid tension loss. For the first two hours, it plays amazing. From 2-4 hours, it plays very good. From 4-6 hours, I noticed a big drop off. Beyond that, the string was gone. Like ALU Power, Eco Power notches easily which translates to major tension loss. I wish the retail pricing was a little lower given the short life.
something for my granddaughtersI chose these strings because the are made from recycled plastic, they are made by Luxilon, and they have the hexagonal shape. I use a Wilson Clash 100 racket, strung and 35 lbs.
I have played with this string for about 2 weeks now and found them very responsive, with good spin on the ball. The pocketing is very comfortable.
Overall I am very happy with this string and its impact on the environment.
