Experience with Volkl V-Torque Tour 1.25 and MSV Focus-Hex Ultra 1.25

[TennisJrDad]

I am checking to see if anyone has played with both Volkl V-Torque Tour 1.25 and MSV Focus-Hex Ultra 1.25.

I am looking for an arm friendly poly, which maintains tension, offers a high degree of control and/or spin, and is comfortable.

Target players are local HS seniors who are hard ball strikers. One plays with a Babolat Pure Aero and the other plays with a Yonex Ezone 98.

One currently plays Lux 4G and the other Hyper-G. Both have VERY mild arm discomfort occasionally (2 times a year). They do not think it is the strings but rather overuse.

I was looking at these two strings as possible replacements which would stay on par with performance of what they currently have with increased arm friendliness.

Thanks.

what tension do they use?

Why not Hyper-G soft?

I have used regular V-Torque and it was comfortable. Nice bite and decent tension maintenance.
I looked at TW's string database it actually shows V-torque is 3lb LESS stiff than V-Torque tour.
Not sure if you are limited to only the tour version but regular v-torque might be a good choice.

id recommend trying msv focus hex ultra. should fiit the bill. for the v torque tour you could also hybrid it with their normal poly in the crosses to negate tensiom loss from v torque

lowering tension is also an option..
