Rafael_Nadal_6257
Semi-Pro
I am a heavy topspin player who hits with quite a bit of pace also. My NTRP is +4.5. I use a Babolat AeroPro Drive. I have used Pro Hurricane Tour for a while now. Recently though, as I have improved (Im in high school and taking lessons consistently), it has taken shorter and shorter for the PHT to break. A problem associated with it is that for me the PHT does not fray at all, so I have almost no idea when it is going to break next. I checked out the customer feedback on this string on TW and most were positive, citing improved spin and pace, similar to what I like. On the other hand, some of the feedback was undeniably negative. A couple posters said that the tension drops dramatically after 4-5 hours of heavy hitting. On the description of the PHT, it is noted as being durable, Im guessing that it can still be durable but lose tension quickly?? Additionally, somewhere on these forums, I found out for the first time that Nadal does NOT use Babolat PHT, but uses something called Duralast?? Is this confirmed, as the TW page for PHT says that both Nadal and Roddick DO USE the PHT. And what brand is this Duralast string that Nadal uses??
Finally to my main question, is there another string like the PHT, which provides a lot of spin and pace, but is slightly more durable and keeps tension longer??, Thanks a ton in advance...
