Recommend me a similar string to Polystar Energy

[KluddKalle]

Loved the feel of Polystar Energy but have read that it drops in tension really fast. Is there a similar string but with better tension maintenance? It needs to be a fairly comfortable string. And I don't mind if it's more spin oriented.

Cyclone felts like Polystar to me.

Thanks @Doc Hollidae

I've played with cyclone some but it's been a while. Going to give it a go again!

What is it that you like about Polystar?

Personally I'm a big fan of Big Hitter Blue. Better feel and similar characteristics.

I've only played with it for 2 hours but I have had problems with a wrist so polys have been more or less painful to use. But Energy was really soft and had a great feeling strung at 22kgs in a Pure strike 16x19. Very little discomfort in my wrist.

Will have to try big hitter blue then.

I've played a lot with Cyclone tour, but I ran out and tried Polystar Energy instead.

I'm just coming off a bout with TE. When I got TE I was playing with a Pure Aero Tour with a full bed of Cyclone. I have since switched to the Graphene Speed Pro/Project One 7 and back to using Big Hitter Blue, no more TE pain. Not sure if it was the racket or the Cyclone, but I was hitting with the PAT a good month or so pain free. So not sure how much of a factor Cyclone was or not. Regardless, I think Big Hiter Blue is better though.

My wrist problems first occurred when playing with a full bed of Savage in first my Pure Storms and then my Pure Drives. But I suspect it was a combination of a lot of thing, including technique. I still get sore but it never gets worse. But TE is something else. I'm glad that you got rid of yours!

Maybe Weisscannon Scorpion?

How's that one?

Well… A soft and powerful round poly with good all around performance. It has better tension maintenance than Polystar Energy (though pretty much anything does). More options would be Topspin Cyber Blue and Tourna Big Hitter Blue.

Anyone know how the power level of Energy compares to Cyclone tour? I have two sets of Cyclone tour and will string my racquets up with them. I strung Energy at 22kg and wonder if I should try same same with those or go up/down in tension?

I was looking for PolyStar Energy string and landed here.
Cyclone is stiff and it can cause TE. The sound from the string bed is not something I liked either.
Solinco HGS\TBS is better option (for me).

probably because he hasnt found an answer? Polystar is supposedly and according to TWU data very soft strings but not very powerfull. Polyfibre is also very soft and to me Yonex ptp is very soft and maybe Wilson revolve even softer..
