Strings on Yonex Ezone 100 for spin

I am currently playing with the yonex Ezone 100 with the wilson revolve strings. I am thinking about switching strings because I do not think the revolv has that good access to spin and it is not really comfortable to play with. Before on my old Wilson Clash I played with the shaped revolve spin and I really liked the access to spin on that string. I am a junior player who plays with heavy topspin balls and I like coming to the net.

I have tried the Yonex poly tour pro but I did not get any spin. Is it good in hybrid with yonex polytour spin? Or is yonex polytour spin good alone on the Ezone? I have also heard that hyper g soft is good on the Yonex Ezone 100. Or is the shaped revolve spin good on the Ezone? I also need strings that is arm friendly and I really like shaped polys.

Do someone have any tips to what strings I should try.
 
Revolve spin has more spin than HGS and Revolve at slower swing speeds.

HGS has more bite than revolve, but less than revolve spin.

Both strings are softer than revolve.

HGS has better tension maintenance than revolve spin.
 
I've been playing around with some different strings in my ezone 100 as well, there doesn't seem to be a lot of info online about what set ups ppl are using.
I hit with a fair bit of top spin, one handed backhand, pretty big serve, spend a fair bit of time at the net and also serve volley a bit.
I've tried
Hyper g 17g & 18g
Hyper g soft 17g and 18g
They give heaps of spin and have been my go to, however, i do find that my shots can be a bit unpredictable with them, prob due to sensitivity to incoming spin.
The 18g HGS is my preferred as it is comfortable, yet slightly more powerful and "spinny" than the other gauges or reg HG.
I typically string at 52-54 lbs.

That said, yesterday i decided to try it with Yonex poly tour pro, to see how i liked it as i enjoyed it in my old dr100.
Strung the 1.25g at 52 lbs (they didnt have any 1.20/17G which would be my preferred).
I think i'll stick with PTP in the 1.20 from now on, didn't have as much spin but i felt it was more reliable and consistent.

So i'd recommend trying hyper g soft in 17g. Also heard volkl cyclone is good too.
I'd like to order Tier one Black knight to try as people rave about it but it's hard to get it in Aus.
Cheers
 
Poly Tour Spin is a pretty stiff string. If you go with it, get the 17g (1.20mm). That will give you a little more spin, and a little more feel too.
 
I have a reel of it. I have it in black. Think I got it straight from a Yonex dealer through a tennis club that's a Yonex dealer.
 
I string for a 5.0 buddy of mine who switched to the Ezone 100 in the spring. I’ve been putting Signum Pro X-perience in it since day one, and he loves it. I string it at 48lbs (constant pull Wise w/ 10% pre-stretch).
 
I played Volkl Cyclone 17g at 46-48 pounds (constant pull) in my Ezone 100 when I had one. I thought that was a great middle ground for spin comfort and power.
 
For the record I never liked Wilson revolve. When I string it, I think it’s gonna be great for spin because it is very slick in hands. But once on the court I find that it plays one gauge above its actual gauge for comfort and spin, in other words not comfortable and not very spinny. This is a personal point of view, maybe we share some of these perceptions.

Is ended up trying polytour spin on the mains and polytour pro on the crosses. And I really liked the comfort, control and access to spin.
