Well..if it's called Yellow Jacket, it's got be good!
But seriously, I'm a Signum fan from way back. First poly strings I ever tried and loved them.
No, they are different strings. Yellow Jacket is hexagonal, Triton is "extreme rough." Triton isn't shaped, but has a very unique texture to it with microscopic bumps on it. I haven't tried it yet, but I've gotten a hold of a set and I can't wait to try it out.
Thanks. It's strange I can't find the Yellow Jacket listed anywhere on their website.
because it is an "TW-Only" String, you can only buy it at TW.
What about the new Yellow Jacket from Signum Pro, only Tennis Warehouse is selling it and I think this is a must try. Great power like the Hyperion, but the spin that you can generate with this one and the feeling when you hit the ball, makes me think this is the string I was really looking for.
That was exactly what I thought! My doubles partner gave me a set, it was amazing when I tried it even when I was going to show him he was mistaken on saying how good this string was. Haha.
Where did you get a reel? I can’t find it!
Sound like one of the best polys in the market. How do you think this compares to Tourbite in power and spin generation department ?
I would give Yellow Jacket a thumbs up compred to the string you are asking. Remember, German made is something quite interesting compared to Made in taiwan. This string can prove it
I talked to someone at Tennis Warehosue today, they told me the reels of Yellow Jacket will be in for next week. That is great news for me, it is easier to travel with a reel instead of many sets;-)
Solinco is made in USA I thought ?? only issue with Signum Is that in the past, it was very good control string but had nothing else, poor spin and poor power level.
I did indeed. I got a sample set for 1.99 at ****, I love the color and I like the string. I am sticking to Yellow Jacket but I think X-Perience is even softer, great power, great spin as well. But something in Yellow Jacket feels delicious to me
I used Tornado for years and I never felt it lacked spin or power. Which string were you using.

Can you describe so more how the string feels? Do you think it's more crisp or more soft/muted feeling? Sounds like a great string!I did indeed.

Does it last longer, and have better tension maintenance than Hyper G?
TW reviewers said Hyper G holds tension better.
So did you get a chance to try out the string yet?
Yes, that is from hitting with it in my own racquet.
This softer I didn't expect. Usually co-polyester strings can have good feeling but softer in not a word I use often
And I can certainly say this about X-Perience
It is, I don't know if I should say it here but at **** I found a set for 1.99 plus shipping for sample it said and I try it. I really enjoy the feeling. The string feels powerful. I like hitting hard, so this one would make my ball go faster but still the ame control. More soft, but not muted feeling. I hate a string that has no feeling, so this is difficult to describe:
Manuel Sanchez who is an ATP Player just told me he loved this new X-Periece string and he felt it really powerful. You felt it with less power?
I used Signum pro poly plasma. very generic string, low power low spin
For the $$$, Poly Plasma has been a solid string for me. I played it since I liked its feel better than the ALU Power.
How's the control with Yellow Jacket?
Control is very good on Yellow Jacket. I did not think it was a very powerful string though, and jk-time is saying it's great all-around including power. My experience said it was a very solid, control-oriented and spin-friendly poly. Fairly stiff, but with a dampened feel, so it's not as harsh on the arm as what I expected from installing it in my racquet.
Right feel was good I thought. but then it has no power or spin
Have you played with Hyper G? How does it compare to Hyper G in terms of comfort? I like Hyper G but it's not as soft as most people are raving about. I'm developing arm pain from Hyper G so hoping that Yellow Jacket would play softer.
