I have recently made the move to full beds of multi because of some wrist/arm issues. I have tried both Wilson Sensation and Maxim Touch and now have some Rip Control to try out.
Racquet is Pacific X-Feel Tour which is a 100 sq inch, 16x19, relatively light and flexible racquet. I strung both the Sensation and the Maxim Touch at 55lbs. The Maxim Touch broke quite quickly (5-7 hrs) so it was quite playable until the strings broke. The Sensation lasted about 10-12 hours but I reckon the last 4-5 hours the tension was pretty loose and I had to really focus to keep the ball in play (not a bad thing..). Anyway, curious what people would recommend stringing the Rip Control at...I have both 16 and 17 to try out? Not concerned about power as my strokes are decent enough. Also, should I get the mains and crosses done at different tensions or is that only applicable when using different strings?
Thanks for all the help and recommendations.
