Pro Supex Blue Gear 1.28. Most I've gotten out of any other strings. Actually helps to hybrid it with a smooth string in the crosses, because sometimes the ridges on the crosses seems to cancel out the spin you are getting from the main strings.

Indeed, I carry all of the strings in this list, but I cannot agree with what you said. Black Widow is much, much softer feeling. They also play quite differently for me, as all it takes is hitting a single slice with BHB7 for you to realize it's something magic. Black Widow is more of a highly spinning "comfort" poly.

Snake-bite by golden set is a shaped poly that offers great feel durability and especially spin.

The best slice string is bhb7. In the entire world. Cuts into the ball.

Genesis Hexonic is popular with my customers who use heavy topspin. Comes in 16 and 18 and is surprisingly durable.

I think Black Widow is the best string for spin.
