Toroline Strings

Strung my CX200 Tour (18x20) with Toroline K-Pro (58/58lbs) yesterday and played 4.5 dubs with it last night. Holy smokes - what great feel/pocketing and with zero 'break in' time. Seemed like the spin was good as well off the ground. This is my first go at Toroline strings and yeah I was influenced by Karue as well as a fairly recent 'top 5 poly' strings YouTube review from PH Tennis. I have a pack of Snapper for my other CX200 and am wondering what y'all think of Snapper and any of the other Toroline strings. Wasabi appears to be very popular... Also wondering where the strings are manufactured if anyone has insight there.

Hi. I just bought 6 sets of toroline. Some hybrid sets ups and two omakase personalized set ups. Unfortunately I am nursing an injury that prevents me from trying them out. I cannot wait to try them out. The ones that have me most excited is Caviar. They are made in Taiwan I think. PS Love Karue : p

Go through the original Toroline Thread, more than enough info to find there
 
Love that you gave this a shot as I have just dived into the work of toroline in the UK.

Had my CX200 Tour 18x20 string with wasabi(pink) & WasabiX(blue) at 52lbs throughout. First things first, the cosmetics: wow, definitely an eye catcher giving bubblegum vibes with an almost iridescent glare on both strings. Looks incredible with the frames red/orange paint job. Performance: first few hits (1.5hrs each time) I was not a fan. Had a horrible ping metallic sound and unreliable as some shots it gave me a lot of power and others it gave nothing. However, at 4hrs play this setup played like a dream. It seems they need 3-4 hours breaking in. Very nice pocketing, good amount of power for a poly, keeps those balls In with a full swing and great snapback. Pleasantly surprised with this hybrid setup so far. Only change I will try when I restring will be to string at 50lbs to see if I can negate the break in period although lower tension does not equal loss of tension!! Based in UK, slightly cold at the moment! Would recommend you give it a try.

Depending on how you guys have your CX 200 Tours spec'd up, unless you're swinging them at very high swing weight (340+) and high recoil weight (170+), chances are you're stringing them entirely too high for a 95" 18x20 to be have adequate levels of pocketing, sweet spot size and forgiveness, even after they break in. Presuming you're playing at close to stock spec, I would drop reference tension down in the low 40's for starters, potentially even lower.

Valid point however, I have no issues at all with sweet spot size nor forgiveness of the racket. All down to solid technique. I moved from an ezone 98 not too long ago and was worried about all the comments re a small head size and tight 18x20 string pattern. Playing some of my best tennis right now. Not a fan of playing around too much with the specs of my rackets so it’s very much factory stock, weight etc was bang on what it should be

Well, all I can say then is: congrats. Abject of not knowing anything more about your level, your strung spec, whether you play more singles or doubles, and/or how high a competitive level you typically play/face, if the setup works for you, then it works for you!
