Injured Again
Hall of Fame
Due to a wrist issue that is again flaring up, I need to soften my stringbed a bit until it gets better. Having a bit more power while I'm hesitant to swing away as normal would be nice as well. Currently using 17 gauge Silver 7 Tour in an SW104 (18x19) with 48 pounds in the center mains and 44 pounds in the center crosses. Was going to switch to a multi cross to get a little bit more cush, while hopefully maintaining as much of the the launch angle characteristics of a full bed of S7T.
I've currently got in my stash Xcel 1.25 and 1.30, some really, really old Dunlop Max Comfort 1.30, Dunlop Comfort Pro 1.34, and Dunlop Silk Pro 1.32. I'm currently getting about 12 hours on a full bed of S7T and if I can get six consistent hours of play out of S7T mains and a multi cross, I'd be happy with that.
Suggestions on which to try and the tensions for the mains and crosses, considering that the number one goal is to maintain launch angle characteristics? Do I need to go down in tension for the poly mains to offset the thicker multi crosses and the stickier multi cross surface? And how much higher do I have to go with a multi cross to maintain some semblance of control? So something like 48/50 with Xcel 1.25 and 46/50 for the 1.30/1.32/1.34 multis?
