Best multi with control and spin

[liftordie]

I have made serious research to find the best multis for control and spin:

Head RIP Control
Head Velocity
Yonex Tour Super 850 Pro
Gosen AK Pro CX
Solinco X-Natural
Tecnifibre Multifeel
Tecnifibre HDX Tour
Isospeed Control
Double AR 666 (Origin like)

Please could you share with me your experience with these strings.

Control?
Spin?
Durability?
Comfort?
Strings movement?

Let me know what you know about these strings!

That's a pretty good list. You might want to add Head FXP, Prince Premier Control and NXT Control to the list.

Thanks but could you answer and give your review of strings on the list you already tried?! Thanks!

I have specifically tried RIP control, Velocity and Multifeel. I have used NXT control but it was so long ago that I can't really comment.

Spin: V > R > M
Control: R > M > V
Durability: V = R > M
Comfort: M > V > R
Strings movement: V > R > M

Nice! 16g for all?

Wilson NXT Control is better than the other strings in all departements, except for comfort.

Agree with @Dartagnan64 's list - except I get more spin with RC than V and M.

If you're really looking for control, Yonex Multi Sensa is one to try. Very low powered.

Have you tried all the strings I listed??

I'd say RIP and Velocity were very close in the spin department but Velocity was just slightly ahead in my experience. But I can see how someone else found Rip spinning more. IT was a pretty close race.

It is important to always precise the gauges (and color!)...

I've used all colors and gauges of RIP and Velocity. RIP colors don't mean a thing but Velocity's coating stays slippery longer on the natural version.

What gauge give you best spin?

I will try X-Natural 16 pretty soon. It seems to be a great spin/control multi.

17g. Thinner strings bite into the ball better if the strings are smooth. If the strings are textured or shaped then sometimes the larger gauges have more grab and then are best combined with a thin gauge smooth cross.

I prefer isospeed control classic especially for the low cost compare to nxt
