Polyester Hybrid vs. Kevlar Hybrid

[archangelkc]

Right now i am using Babolat Pro Hurricane 17g. as a main string with NXT Tour 16g. as crosses. The mains are strung at 62lbs and the crosses are at 60lbs. I currently like this setup but it seems to lose tension fairly quick.

I was thinking about changing to either a synthetic gut string in the crosses with the Pro Hurricane, or even try the Ashaway Kevlar 18g hybrid with synthetic crosses. Which one of these choices would be a better bet for me? or should i stick with the Hurricane/NXT but change the tension around.

Thanks

nxt is a synthetic in the crosses, and an expensive one. u wont find many hybrids better than the one that u have, gut being the only exception

if you want to try a kevlar and syn gut hybrid, just try a pack of problend, it feels crisp and is an effective solution if you have durability issues. also, you dont want to go too thin on the kevlar, it sort of defeats the purpose of using it if you use 1.10 mm version. if you really dont break string, then dont use poly of kevlar, just synthetic gut.
