    Pure Drive vs. Ezone 100: How Different?

    PD is a cannon, and the Vcore is a cannon with a silencer so its a bit more controllable but opposite side of the feel spectrum as the PD.

    Solinco String short by few feet often?

    I have not had this problem with the individual packs I've purchased and I use a 100 sq in. Did you reach out to the seller or solinco? I also use(d) hg soft reels and never felt I was cut short as I went through about 14 racquets with one reel, but I'm also not methodical or picky about the...

    The big 3 are so intrinsically connected, it is ever possible to put them in separate tiers?

    Fedfan still living in the year 20-19-17 lol. Even if they were in the same ballpark, from here on out anyone contending for greatness will always be measured against Novak. Getting to 10 AOs, 14 RGs, 8 Wimbledons, or 400+ weeks at #1 are but mere pre-requisites to even get within eyesight of...

    Round version of tour bite soft with good feel?

    The thing is, with HG I think there is something to be said about the feel and characteristics of the base material that just work. I see the base material as the lowest common denominator for any string so as long as that is good whether its shaped, round, soft, or rough it almost shouldn't...

    Tecnifibre TF40 315

    I demod this along with a few other frames and it was nice but maybe I got a heavy swingweight because my shoulder was feeling pretty beat the following day after an extended demo session. Ultimately that is what pushed me another direction but if you get the right spec or your shoulder can live...

    Luxilon Alu Power

    Surprisingly its actually a little on the soft side, I don't think it has that crisp response that ALU or TB gives but it can be worth a shot if you're seeking some comfort. I also heard from a solinco rep that TB round is coming and I think that will actually be the real comparison you are...

    Round version of tour bite soft with good feel?

    I heard TB round is in the pipeline...can't believe how little ALU lasts though, I doubt any of these other brands would have come up if they had figured out the tension maintenance issue in time...the price is just a double whammy unless you are sponsored.

    Olympic athletes biting their Medals

    One of the biggest, if not the biggest compliment of them all....many many years from now when athletes continue to bite their medals (even if they don't know the celebration's origin), that celebration lets them know that even if they finish 2nd or 3rd then can still have a lasting legacy so...

    Big Solinco string test!

    Any string will lose tension if it just sits in a bag, even in a “thermo” lined bag

    New Solinco Blackout coming ?

    Do you still have any of that earlier stuff? Did it come in 18 gauge?

    New Solinco Blackout coming ?

    2 things...regarding the proto "10-JX" that they sent me....I thought the first hit was fine but only had a chance to use it for like 20 minutes. The subsequent sessions though have been magic. About 12 hours in and this string still has a lot of pop and the tension maintenance/control is still...

    What would be the best string you've tried (single and/or hybrid) to soften the feel of a Pure Aero but not rob it of its inherent power and spin?

    Hyper-G soft. Coming from an aero, that string is what got me to even try the blackout in the first place (which i guess is modeled around the PE attributes). Does exactly what you say while giving it a bit more feel

    New Solinco Blackout coming ?

    Just ordered some grommets for my XTDs and asked the question and yes V2 looks to be in the works! It seems that the BO is further out than the WO....but I am also getting a set of a new blue string with my order to try out as well...let see if they can make another hit

    Tennis Warehouse playtest: Solinco Hyper-G / Hyper-G Round

    I actually tried the barb wire with hg soft and that ball was coming out different in a good way! It was like a nasty knuckleball and despite the name it was quite comfortable with a ton a spin fresh out the stringer...the only downside is that there was a bit of a reduction of power from that...

    If Djokovic beats Alcaraz on Sunday it will be the most impressive slam victory ever

    Hopeless in straight sets vs Courageous in 4. If you used the time it takes to bold every letter to think about your arguments maybe they wouldn’t come off as rubbish.
