Default String Suggestions

I'm currently using a mix of MSV Focus Hex and Wilson Shock Shield and I'm finding it easy to snap the crosses.

My setup is MSV 56lbs in the mains and the Shock Shield 54lbs in the crosses.

Anyone have any ideas on how I could stop snapping the crosses so easily?

These strings are strung in my 3 IG Instinct MP's

Try 52/56 and/or a tougher cross.

Go full MSV
Its last very long for me and plays softer after breakin.
Many players will actually replace before it ever breaks.
The only hybrid I would really consider with MSV or RPM is natural gut and Id put it in the mains like Federer.

See I tried that, and I hated full Poly, saying that, I did snap a set of Blast in a week a while back so I'll never go back to that string, never liked it.

Thanks for the suggestions! I'll try the Gut in the mains!
