I want some of that just because. However, I have seen "rainbow" string before just in the past year but I didn't pay much attention due to the person using it.

Many, many years ago there was another Prince Prism string that was multi coloured. I used to use is in my old Triple Treat Rebel 95 :)

Not exactly the new prince string, but there are rainbow synthetic gut string out there in the market.

Ok, anyone else find this a little creepy? I was looking for Christmas string deals, and I saw the Prince 'Buy 3, get 33% off' deal, so I clicked on it. I was greeted with this:

$9.99​
Buy 3 or more for $6.66 each​
This multi-colored string not only explodes with color, but it will enable you to take huge cuts at the ball. Offers a great combination of control, spin and durability.​

Available: 36+​

The string is named 'Diablo', which is Spanish for 'Devil', and is priced $6.66?!?! And to boot, it's normal price is $9.99, which, when rotated 180 degrees...is 66.6.

I'm not a religious person, but methinks TW needs to adjust their pricing up or down a few pennies...

It is the Devil's string. :happydevil:

I still have some 25-year-old sets of Prince Prism that look about the same. I kept it in my string inventory for stringing kids rackets.

Question. If even the same poly in different colours can play differently, what the hell does a rainbow poly play like?

Crisper like a red poly? Softer like a yellow? Terrible tension maintenance of black??

Can someone confirm Prince Diablo Prism, Diablo Duo and Diablo are the same string except in different colors? How do these compare to Prince Tour XR from stringing experience and how they play? I find XR very easy to string and slippery during the stringing process.

I just strung up XR for a buddy who asked me to put it in his Prince Synergy 98. I too found it a very slippery string that was easy to install.

That said my pal said he didn't really care much for it in that racquet.

Understood. I only use it in the crosses because of it's slipperyness. Are there any strings I can buy by the reel that are similarly slippery and easy to install in the crosses?

Depending on how stiff you like your cross strings there is Isospeed Cream, Tourna Big Hitter Silver, 4G.

Someone posted about Yonex Poly Tour Fire 17G on a previous thread which is coated with a slick material. I have about a month on a racquet with it as a cross to gut mains. It is very slick as I have never shredded gut like I am with this stuff. It did drop tension a bit on me at first and is now playing rather dead but I am still getting performance out of the stick and am not ready to restring. I probably have at least 40 hours on it. The racquet is starting to look my old white shaggy beard!!!
