Like it a lot with
VS Touch @52
Hawk Rough @48

will try full bed Hawk Rough at 50 next

I gotta get some hawk rough to try. Still need to try hawk touch in this one, though I just hated it so much in the gravity pro I can't get around it haha

velocity MLT as a hybrid string. I have a set of it laying around maybe I will give it a go

Hawk touch is not my favorite but definitely like Hawk and Hawk rough.

I actually liked the string that came in it, is that Lynx, right? I hit a pretty heavy ball with long strokes and a big serve game. I am definitely looking for more bite on the ball, and a little more pop. I will probably try Diadem XT 1.20 next time around (one of my favorite polyester strings). Tension maintenance for me has been pretty impressive for the lynx. I have about 6-7 hours and it's just now starting to feel like it's losing some bite and control. 1st time trying Lynx and I wasn't expecting much, but it's a very comfortable control oriented strung without feeling too mushy. And the Lynx has good bite for a round string that's not Luxilon. Haven't tried Hawk or Hawk Ruff, but used the Hawk Tour in other racquets. I thought it was a pretty decent all around, but didn't feel the Hawk Touch was anything special at that higher Price Point. I'll report back after trying Diadem Elite XT.

I got the PT 2.0 because I'm trying to use gut/poly hybrid to save my arm. My Microgel (and Youtek) Prestige Pros are great with all poly or poly main/multi cross, but with gut mains it's just too powerful for me and I need a little more control. I wanted the same racket but with an 18 main string pattern. The 2.0 is perfect.
I'm really enjoying my VS Touch 17 @60lbs with Signum Pro Poly Plasma crosses @56lbs. Just a few lbs looser than my Prestige Pros to account for the string pattern. Thinking I might bump it up a couple of lbs, or maybe not.

Alu power at 50, might go down to 48 next restring. Feel is fantastic, spin and control are perfect, longevity not the best but 18x20 helps to mask this issue. Might head back to gut hybrid in the end.

Also need to try out PTP at 48 again for a very plush stringbed.

I am interested in Hawk, rough is cheap here at the moment but I'm wary of it. Retail head hawk is as much as Alu... though touch gets a fair bit of play on the tour too.

a friend lent a ro tour 2.0 my brother, who tested it with an isospeed 1.20mm as a muster but less tense anyway. (26kg), I hit a few balls this morning, compared to my 690 MIA pro tour I toruve them a little drier, less powerful (necessarily 630 Vs 690), but not unpleasant .. but I find (maybe biased by the habit of the 690 in L2 and karakal PU Super, there it was L3, leather grip and sticky overgrip) .. but I found less comfortable and less sensations ...

but I think that with such a small frame, and 18/20, you should not hesitate to go down in gauge, and use 1.10 in poly, or 1.25 in natural gut.
