Volkl Cyclone Tour Playtest

TW Staff · 11-27-2012, 09:35 AM

Attention Talk Tennis Members:

The strings have shipped. (So we are obviously no longer taking requests)

We will not be sending confirmation emails. We select playtesters based on a number of factors.

Your review is due by Jan 3rd.

If you do not post a review, or if your review is clearly lacking effort, you will be excluded from future playtests.

** No Hybrids **

Include the following in your review:

Gauge of playtest string
Tension used for playtest
Regular string set up
Racquet brand and model used for test
Power of test string
Feel
Spin
Comfort
Durability
Playability Duration (share thoughts on if/how the playability changed over time)
Control (predictable trajectory? performance on different strokes and swing speeds?)
Tension recommendations (after hitting it, would you recommend a different tension? Why?)
Compare to the string you use most often
If you have played with the original Cyclone, please compare.

You won't. Its not going to be shipped to your door. Its going to be in your mailbox or where ever your mail goes. Its either you got in or you didn't. If it doesn't come for a week after somebody announces that they received the string, then you probably didn't get in.

I liked the first iteration of the Cyclone for the first couple of hours...until it died. I wonder how this new string will be compared to the first version.
