Hybrid stringing with Tecnifibre Triax and Yonex Poly Tour Air

Hi,

I would like to try this hybrid stringing and would appreciate some guidance before I waste too many meters of strings with experimenting. :)

Which one should go on the mains and what tension shall I use?
I would like to maximize spin&comfort.

So far I played mostly with full bed of Yonex Poly Tour Pro 125 (yellow) at 24.5/24 kg on a Yonex Vcore98 305g with additional 5g on the hoop and 5g on the handle.
After lengthy matches and/or multi-day tournaments I am getting sore arm/back with it and would like to switch to something a bit less stressful for the body.

I am 41 and probably 4.5 level (I am not in the US so my level is just an educated guess).

If spin/comfort is the goal, triax on the mains is the way to go. Probably start at 26/25 tension.
It seems I have less spin and more power than a full bed of Poly Tour Pro.
Would I get more spin if I would put the Poly Tour Air on the mains and Triax on crosses?
If so, isn't Triax too expensive for a cross string?

I doubt you'd get more spin with poly mains and Triax crosses. The more slipperier string should be in the crosses in general to allow more movement of the mains.
