Semi-Pro
Thailand Open just finished. Like every year, I walked around the event and look for new stuffs. Unfortunately, most top brands have no new products In fact, they brought in old stuffs for 30-70% discount. For Donnay, they launched 5 strings and 4 racquets this year. (in one year, they have 23 racquets launched). Each string set comes with a resealable bag that can be reused.
The first 2 strings are impressive in smooth string category. The first on is called X-Hybrid, a combination of Poly and Synthetic. It has soft feel, and have ample power on 18x20 racquet. I think it feels just about right (not too mute, too soft, and too crisp). My favorite smooth hybrid of all time was Boris Becker B-Xtreme & Sensor, but Boris Becker no longer make it. The X-Hybrid is my new favorite now. On my future racquet test, I will use this string.
The second one is called Syncore - a synthetic gut with smooth coating for better spin. It doesn't feel as crisp as traditional synthetic gut like Gamma Wearguard, but it does have the same firm & responsive feel. Best of all, string doesn't move a lot during play. Those old school players should try it.
The third one is X-Micron, a multifilament string. This string plays very soft on arm, a little to soft for me. It has a good ball pocketing. Many senior players like it.
