I have just gotten back playing tennis this summer after 2 year knee ordeal, and I'm interested in trying some new strings.
Previously, I liked Luxilon Alu, but it always felt like crap after a couple weeks. I *think* I liked the yellow Babolat Hurricane, but can't remember for sure. And if I did like it, it also felt like crap after a short period. However, I remember buying a used racquet that had an orange poly in it, which I can only assume was Signum, and it played well for a much longer period of time- beside however much time it already had on it when I bought the racquet.
So, there seem to be quite a few poly's new to the market in the last 2 years. The local shop has solinco, technifibre, luxilon, babolat, wilson, and prince. I'm also not opposed to ordering something from TW; and the shop said bringing your own string was fine. They also said they'd string whatever you supplied for $15, which I thought was reasonable.
Anyone want to make suggestions on strings to try? Has the hybrid approach pretty much taken over, or do people still do full beds of poly? Suggestions on hybrids? I'm not really picky, mostly looking for something that plays well for as long as possible...
