Solinco Green Poly?

Just curious....has anyone heard of a new poly from Solinco that is green? A tennis buddy thinks that he has seen it in a few racquets, one from a Solinco sponsored coach.

not quite as crisp as tour bite but close . Not in between tour bite soft and tour bite as some have suggested but much closer in stiffness to tour bite (in my opionion) . slightly higher power lever than TB, great spin potential of course. I have been playing the unreleased silver rough a lot too , !really like that one !

Unreleased silver rough? Is that a textured round poly or a textured shaped poly? And what does that play like?

Interesting, what do you find special about the silver rough?

I have hit with it. My hitting partner/stringer is sponsored by Solinco. Neither of us liked it, and we both love TB. I wouldn't say it was terrible, just seemed a bit vague to me. I also found the bright green color a bit distracting on forehands. It sounds ridiculous but the bright green in my peripehral vision bothered me. i suppose you would get used to it.

He had another demo string from Solinco that was a heavily textured rough string. It was fantastic. Great power and unreal spin, plus it felt like a multi. No idea what it was.
