Ok. I've spent about 6 hours with the current Snapper/Wasabi X setup. TLDR, I really like it but not sure if I like it any more than Tour Hex/Wasabi X. I feel the latter combo may last longer compared to the snapper combo.
For the snapper/wX combo (strung at 50/45 in a 2022 Head Speed Pro), the snap back is very good. More so than with Durafluxx (which is still a go to string in some frames). It is a soft string relatively speaking. I had previously tried toro toro/WX and it was just slightly too stiff for my arm. No real discomfort from this string. It is definitely plush and not crisp. Ball pocketing is great and I feel it definitely opens up the sweet spot. I would say this combo gives me a medium to high launch angle (needed for me in an 18x20). Spin was not aggressive by any means, but my balls were dipping more than usual and I had opponents befuddled on some balls that they thought were going to go long. That could definitely be attributed to the higher launch angle. Directional control was great and predictable on groundstrokes and serves. Power on serves was ok. I think the Caviar/WX combo I had tried before gave me more power. However, slice serves were really good and I could really have some bite away from my opponents on the deuce side (righty). Power on groundstrokes was about a 6/10. Livelier than a toro toro, but not as much as Caviar I would say.
Tension maintenance is middle of the road I would say. I've had a 6lb drop after 6 hours, but it appears to have settled in here which is nice. Snapback has remained consistent.
If you have specific questions about my experience, feel free to ask. I may not have covered everything that you all look for in a string. I'll keep playing this current set up for about 4-6 more hours and update if anything drastically changes.
