Radical touch mp, round or textured copoly?

[tenfan]

I read in a tennis blog that round copoly strings (for i.e. Head hawk touch) are reccomended for this racquet because of the tight centre mains pattern. I tried head hawk touch 17 and they are not bad in this racquet, but they are quite expensive, then tried head sonic pro 17 and didn't like them.
So my questions are:
1) would you put round or textured copoly in the radical touch mp racquet?
2) which round or textured copoly would you reccomended?

Textured in the mains and round in the crosses.

Try lynx edge 17g on mains at 52lbs and lynx 17g (yellow) on the crosses at 53lbs, you will be amazed!, also 5 bucks cheaper than hakw

what did you not like about the sonic pro? i always used sonic pro edge in my rad MP and it worked well. edge is a bit of a different animal from regular sonic pro. also had the agassi-ish rad mp that comes prestrung w lynx and it felt really gutless for whatever reason. lynx is a fairly soft string but i think its also noticeably lower-powered than sonic pro.

recently ive been stringing my radical-mps with synthetic gut strings, around 56lbs
the comfort and power was good,
with fb polys, I was getting a bit of wrist pain
I do like the topspin from the polys though
anyone using a hybrid on these poly/syngut?? what tension??

Is there a particular reason you're not just going with your own previous set up?

I use the Graphene Radical and I've been using Kirschbaum Max Power Rough 1.25 in the mains @ 52 lbs and Head Syn Gut in the crosses @ 54 lbs. I like it a lot, I hit with a decent amount of topspin on the forehand side.

any wrist pain? at 52/54
I ask because I know myself and the previous owner have wrist issues now
i bought the "spiderman" radical.mp, from the previous guy,,

Funny, I use a similar setup on my Prince Textreme Warrior 100: Volkl CT 16g anthracite mains @52 lbs and Wilson Power Gut 17g black crosses strung at @54 lbs.

No pain for me, but obviously you're mileage may vary. Max Power is a bit on the stiffer side I believe, but the syn gut softens it up enough where it feels pretty plush I think. Keep in the mind that the Graphene Rad has a lower stiffness rating than the Touch version, so the racket might be more of a factor is you're feeling a bit of pain. I did try this set up in the XT Radical Pro (which is a lot stiffer) and also didn't have any pain.

yup, tnx
I think this is it
I do feel a bit more inpact from the touch version than the graph.360 and graph.xt
ill look into the stiffness factor of these now that you've mentioned it..
