lol - don't know, thought the green PP SG and the green Eruption goes well with the green side of the Gravity Pro.... as that is the only green co-poly i have
Could you attach the gauges to the stiffnes ratings according to you because clearly the 1.14 rd would be softer than the 1.29 version.
What would be a more powerfull poly from Pros pro with very good durability/playability?
Red devil 1.24
You know ahead Velocity is multi and RD is co-poly right? So if all things equal, the Velocity should be “softer” than RD.
I didn't found Red Devil, Blackout and Concept powerfull...
OK, would you think that 1.28 Plus power is also more durable than 1.28 concept? How much tension do you string it?
No, durability is similar to Concept 1.28. But playability is better. You get more feel and more spin from Plus Power imho.
On a 16x19 100 sqi racket 24 kg / 53 lbs mains and 23 kg / 51 lbs crosses is a nice option to start with.
How do you find the Intense Heat string? My experience was that is was stiffer than other polys from Pros pro and I had to string it at a lower tension. I usually string poly around 55lbs but found I had to string the intense heat at around 48lbs to feel similar otherwise it felt very board like. I like the intense heat overall though..
If someone could be helped by that info, those below are the weights of a full Pro's Pro's strings reels.
Just the net weight of the strings, without the plastic reel. The strings are not measured. We suppose that they are 200m, usually few meters longer...
S.GUT 1.35 WHITE = 382 g
INTENSE HEAT 1.30 SILVER = 382 g
PLUS POWER 1.28 = 364 g
BLACK FORCE 1.24 = 339 g
PLUS POWER 1.23 = 337 g
BLACK OUT 1.24 = 334 g
RED DEVIL 1.19 = 325 g
ERUPTION 1.18 = 322 g
The two types of Pro's Pro's plastic reels are:
- One light with "many tight dots" in a small circle. That's net weight (with two stickers) is 72 g.
- One heavier with not so many "cloud style dots" in a large circle. That's net weight (with one sticker) is 126 g.
String type stickers weight around 1-1,5 g each.
You can use that measurements above if you want to split some string reels easily by the weigh, or to count the weight which each string model is going to add on your racket!
Have you had a chance to try the S.Gut 1.35 ? where do you use it mains or cross. Thanks.

Not yet... I'm thinking to stung it fullbed at first. In a hybrid I prefer the S.Gut on the mains (as you can read few posts above) because snapping back easily than the opposite.
All right bro please update us
Why all that? An empty reel and a kitchen weight scale (simple things which everybody has) did the job fine...
i dont understand that splitting of reels in the first place. Considering you might end wtith a few meters at each reel when you are finishing stringing. so if it was one reel you could use the meters together for a half string job, if you know what i mean.. Furthermore to rewind all those strings again on a a seperate rol would take a lot of effort for what purpose?
I've used intense heat 1.25 in black and white as full bed and as cross in hybrid with multi and syn gut.
are you sure of 1.20? i thought it only was available in 1.25 and 1.30 at a dsicount now. Maybe they are ending manufacturing. intense heat.

interesting. this gauge not for sale in my country. 1.30 intense heat does lose tension rather quickly so no doubt 1.20 does too. However how is spinpotential compared to thicker gauges?Tennissaite Intense Heat 200 m 1.20 silber jetzt bestellen

It's ok as a cross string. Seems to lose tension very quickly in an open string pattern. Probably be fine in a small hoop or high density 18x19/20 pattern.
that depends ofcourse on the racquet you string it with and the weather and if you are playing on a claycourt maybe. I never play multi anymore since i tried HDX which feels like chewing gum in a racquet. so no spin potential what so ever Furthermore i understand that Wilson sensation has low durability too. If you need more durability use a sgut from Pros Pro. It will be even cheaper too.
What is HDX?
HDX is a known from another brand tan RPro Pros. There are lot reasons why a string breaks. in old racquets this could be because of damagaed grommets or you damaged the strings during stringing by clamping to tight?
Hexaforce is a multi?
No sorry, maybe i didn't explain it well.
Yup, that's Pro's Pro. Most of the Poly I've tried goes dead within 2-4 hours, but the reels are super cheap. I personally don't think any of their polyesters have amazing feel (or sound at impact), but I can get some really good results for a couple hours out of a few of them, namely Blackout strung <50lb. Their Multi's seem to have closer feel to their Name Brand counterparts, like HexMulti, which plays just like the Dunlop HexyFibre...The biggest difference I've noticed in PP strings is that they lack the special coatings that the bigger brands use, therefore reducing snapback, durability, and perhaps feel. I also went through several sets of the Orange Hexaspin, which played and felt a lot like signum Pro Poly Plasma Hextreme, for about 2 hours, then turned into a rocket launcher and started feeling stiff, like it lost all its pocketing properties! Again, I noticed that the ProPro Hex Poly looked and strung up just like a copy of Signum Hextreme.....however it was lacking the slickness, which I am assuming is a coating or proprietary additive, which also caused the string to lockup and get stuck out of place probably around an hour. Pro's Pro reels are so cheap though, that if you string yourself, it's fun to save some money and test out a couple reels, or have it on hand for anyone that just wants a cheap polyester string. I miss access to Pro Supex here in the States, because IMHO they make great budget strings, but they weren't Pro's Pro level cheap, and now the market if oversaturated with strings in the mid-range price point from bugger brands that overshadowed the Pro Supex Strings. Pro Supex Maxim Touch was a fantastic multifilament string that I switched many of my Wilson NXT customers over to and it was less than $10/set. Pro Supex Blue Gear was a lot like the Diadem strings, many years before Diadem "invented" the Star Core technology. Pro Supex was ahead of their time, if you are overseas, I recommend to test Pro Supex along with Pro's Pro.
Their multi's are legit...they last long time and have quality feel and durability.....just my 2 cents...I use them FB....can recommend....help cure my TE
i never use multi in de first place because no matter which brand they give you fb a locked stringbed that i dont like plus they are more expensive than normal poly.
I once broke hitec in 40min although usually it lasts me between 1-2h. This with a round poly cross (often PP concept), otherwise it notches and frays too quickly ending up breaking faster.
don't think so. RD feels "shinier"... but i don't feel any different to Eruption (both green and black) and Blackout...
