I came over here because i just finished up my last reel of lynx tour! I didnt even realize it wasn't avail as I bought a couple of reels.
@TRU PRO Official happy to provide my feedback! Even happier I get to actually buy this string now. Do you actually know if I played the 17 or 16? I'm assuming 17.
Might wait for a discount code to drop, and then get a reel. Are there any specials around the corner?

Side note about strings (which you may already know) - what most players interpret as spinny is actually high launch angle.
This can largely be determined by number of sides - hence firewire's amazing spinniness.
Actual rpms come from rhs and freedom of the mains to move so a slick/smooth cross gives the most.
So Boost is a great option for maxing spin potential and getting some extra loopiness on the ball.
--
Taking the above and the spinny reviews atomos probably has a profile more like a 4-5 sided string except a more petal shape. This would give a higher launch angle and lack of sharp edges would allow for freedom of the mains/no notching on the crosses akin to a smooth poly making for a nice spinny string.
Add that textured/shaped strings tend to be softer and it's probably got a little more comfort and plush feel than many polys.
Also, if this is the demo I was part of, it's a pretty stretchy string, to the degree that is snapped on my stringer
Which is sad for me but says good things about this as a high power/plush poly option.

I think its easy to visually see the difference in actual spin veesus high launch angle... more topspin makes a ball drop down sooner/shorter in court which is why you have to massively increase height on lobster ball machine when maxing out topspin or it'll hit the net or land short in seevice box, makes it look floatier in the air (you can really see that heavy float when pros practice), more topspin has a quicker explosive jump off the court, etc.
@TRU PRO Official - Where you put Atomos on the firmness/stiffness scale versus your other polys, presuming the following order is roughly correct:
Softest > Firmest:
Ghostwire > Strike Force RIP > Black Knight > Firewire > Tour Status ~= DuraFluxx

This is only easy to see if you have some sort of mechanical test setup. With an actual player they will usually automatically adjust to try and keep the depth, so a higher launch angle will encourage them to hit more topspin naturally in most cases.
First couple shots shallow and dipping → swing through a bit more → more rhs (still with higher launch angle)
Unless the person's default mode is to drive every shot usually the launch angle will turn into some spin.
Are those Gauge parameters the measured string diameter after stringing? I was surprised that BK 118 and 123 are literally the same diameter with such different attributes.
Just by looking at the strings, it seems there has to be a bigger difference than only 0.01 mm in diameter.

We do not yet have USRSA lab test results for Atomos, so it is difficult to compare. Looking at the initial feedback that we received from players who tested the string, it appears that Atomos offers a rather "soft" response.

Can't tell how good atomos is yet, likely wrong racquet/tension or just need to break it in... Strung it in my PA 98 which I haven't used much yet, seems like its quite rigid stiff and deadish like the VS... 51 lbs fresh it feels very tight and rigid which might just be the racquet preventing from telling how good the string feels. Gonna focus on playing this a lot to see if the string breaks in and stops being so rigid. It looks very cool its a whitish string and even to the eye the string looks shaped different than normal strings. From hitting with it a bit I think its gonna be a super consistent predictable string with solid spin and control, doesn't seem powerful

Did you think it was plush or much ball pocketing?

Okay it just needed some hitting to break in apparently... 2nd practice it was really good, idk why but it made slice backhand amazing always super sweet very plush yet firm response with a lot of control and power. Very good for my one hand topspin backhand too. Can really swing out on power shots and a lot of spin and control. It is indeed quite plush like the reviews say. Played amazing today

Been playing with 17g Atomos for the past few days alongside Black Knight in my two Angell TC97s both at 54 lbs. My bias that I'm a Black Knight disciple and love that string to death aside, Atomos still performs pretty dang well. Feels much crispier and I miss out on the same ball pocketing effect I've gotten from BK, but makes up for it in a much more powerful Popping response off the string bed. Spin seems comparable in both, but you're definitely going to be able to blast a bit more with the Atomos potentially at the cost of some comfort and control. Probably won't be switching but will consider mixing it with maybe some Ghost Wire or possibly a hybrid with nat-gut as a replacement for Alu-Power style strings.

Black Knight is very plasticky Atomos feels so much better... and the spin is quite a bit better as well. It has a really sweet unique plushness
If bk is too plasticky I'd try lower tension.
I play at 42# I'd recommend it around 46# if you like normal tension and 48# if you like high tension.
Definitely a muted response but I've never had the overly plastic feel from it.

I had it at 35 lbs when I tried it, you really feel the plastic at night not so much during day in sun. Either way I don't see a reason to use it with Atomos existing

Would full bed ghostwire get easier topspin "brush" effect at low swing speeds when brushing up the back of the ball than atomos?
TRU PRO Official

Due to the round shape of Ghost Wire, you will not get easier top spin. A good way to use Ghost Wire is to use it as a cross string with a shaped poly. For the highest ball bite at lower swing speeds we would recommend Firewire Boost.

I was thinking with ghostwire maybe the string would slide on itself way more easily than atomos thus having the easy brush effect
TRU PRO Official
Rookie
It appears there are 2 factors that contribute to access to spin. 1. The string’s ability to snap back to its original position. 2. The shape of the string.
In regards to #2, Ghost Wire will underperform due to its round shape.
A good way to bring the best of 2 worlds together is by using Ghost Wire in the crosses in combination with a shaped poly in the mains.

Yea I just restrung my PA98 51 lb Atomos with the free pack of ghostwire sent with it, also strung 51 lbs. Not the easy brush I was looking for, but wow it played incredible for me last night practicing alone... doesn't have the amazing unique plush feeling of Atomos but has a much different less plush feeling that is also very cool. Sort of feels like a spinnier version of a multifilament but still can tell its polyester. Spin potential, control, power in this racquet everything was sick. I hit forehands for 10+ minutes and the last one was such a perfect sweet forehand I loved it. Then served for a few mins and it was doing great there way better than my usual serve practices felt so much easier.
Atomos is great I'd just say the rating ranges on the website are spot on. Atomos for UTR 6 or higher its for competitive players who really know how to swing, Ghostwire all skill levels. Ghostwire is a lot more forgiving ease of use Atomos seems to want a lot of skill and effort to really get the most out of it. Ghostwire is the only poly that made me think of multis when hitting with it
I still have an old pack of firewire boost to finally string that next will go 51 lbs again and compare.
@TRU PRO Official I just ordered 2 sets of Atomos. I'm playing with Black Knight for a couple of years now. Would you recommend the same tension as for Black Knight as you would for Atomos?

My impressions of stringing up Atomos in my 360+ Extreme Tour and Pure Aero 100 2023:
Light Grey-ish, not really glossy but more mat, looks gorgeous in my Extreme Tour.
It feels softer than BK while stringing. My drop weight still continues dropping some mm after pulling tension on Atomos.
With BK the weight stays much longer in one position after pulling tension.
The shape/surface/profile of the string seems familiar and is similar, if not the same as Oehms Alu Pearl Rough.
Maybe it's produced in the same factory in Germany? Could be.
APR has a much darker grey, is even more mat.
If you cut the string after knotting, with BK it's more of a clipping and it seems it's a harder plastic material. With APR and Atomos it's more of a cuttin through something a bit softer.
With Atomos pulling the tensions on the crosses, they stay straight. I don't have to straighten them out to prevent tension loss.
Doesn't remember if this happens with APR, but with BK i have to straighten the crosses before clamping.
Hitting some balls against the wall, Atomos feels plush.
My go to string is BK and i love it.
APR is a quality string, underrated and a gem of all strings i've tested because of the Price/Performance ratio.
The one thing with APR is the notching after one session.
That's the only negative i have, but i string very frequently so that APR won't lock.
Very excited to hit with Atomos today and very interested in playability and if it notches.

So, it seems I was right about the shape being similar if not the same with Oehms Ali Pearl Rough.
Should be interesting playing them with the same racket one after the other and come back with comparisons.
I'll try do that in August.
1. Maybe both?
2. I think it's similar and comparable to Tour Hex. Maybe Atomos edges out TH very minimally for Slipperiness (is that a word?)
Don't have a racket strung with fresh Tour Hex so i can't say for sure.

MaiTai - Very curious how your Atomos hit went since you play similar strings And the same 360+ ET
I am a big fan of APR, but not the durability as I only get about 3 hours before it bags out. I am also a big fan of Black Knight, but not the boardy break-in period. Plays great after though.
Maybe the Atomos is the best of both worlds?
I meant that maybe both of those factors are responsible for the Spin potential of Atomos xD How do you measure if one or the other factor is more responsible?
I'm back at home from a 2 hour Session with Atomos. I tried to play an equally amount of time with the ET and PA. Only some Points with the EZ98 and BK was freshly strung in my bag for 8 days without hitting.
| Racket | String | Tension | Strung |
| Head 360+ Extreme Tour | Tru Pro Atomos 1.25 | 24/23 kg | 7 Hours before Session |
| Babolat Pure Aero 100 2023 | Tru Pro Atomos 1.25 | 25/24 kg | 6 Hours before Session |
| Yonex Ezone 98 2022 | Tru Pro Black Knight 1.23 | 24 kg | 8 days before Session |
Normally my strings settle for 12 to 24 hours before i play them.
| Racket | Tension loss (since stringing) | Playtime |
| Head 360+ Extreme Tour | -8,4 % (1,9 kg) | maybe 50 min |
| Babolat Pure Aero 100 2023 | -8,6 % (2 kg) | maybe 50 min |
| Yonex Ezone 98 2022 | -7,8 % (1,9 kg) | around 20 min |
I played half sets against different opponents and some point plays/Games like King of the Court.
I definitely have to play more with Atomos but my first impressions are very positive.
MY only negative is subjective and a personal preference. It's the Sound when you hit the ball.
It's the same sound with Alu Pearl Rough. I liked APR in the Ezone98 without a dampener.
But i didn't like the sound as much as Black Knight in my Extreme Tour.
It's a very deep "Thud" and BK is more of a "Thwack". I don't know how to explain xD
But that's something personal and doesn't affect playability.
In the ET the sound is too dampened. Don't wanna play without dampener because of the pinging sound of the ET.
I'm comparing BK 1.23 which seems to effectively be a 1.21 diameter string when strung, with Atomos 1.25. The thickness between Atomos and BK 1.23 is obviously bigger than between BK 1.23 and BK 1.18.
Power: BK > Atomos
I don't know if the Power level of Atomos today was affected by the time the rackets were strung, but the string feels a bit lower Powered than BK.
You can smack the Ball hard and with enough spin, it's addictive. This is definitely not a beginners string or for people who can't generate theis own Power.
If you like to swing the crap out of any ball this string seems to be for you.
Could have go down in Tension with the ET and Aero and still would be fine. Some balls landed short and i had to swing out more to get depth with the ET.
Atomos did tame the Power of the Pure Aero which can be too much sometimes if you don't apply the needed amount of Spin.
Control: BK = Atomos
I think both strings give a perfect amount of control. That's why i love BK.
Control-wise, nothing negative to report.
Spin: BK ?? Atomos
Tricky. But from my first impression i would say veeery similar, but Atomos could edge out BK by a small amount.
Want to play a bit more, especially match play and with new balls. The Court was very wet today, the balls were heavy and have been played before.
My game depends heavily on Topspin and Atomos didn't let me down in that department.
You could hear the strings moving and snapping back when hitting with spin.
With the Aero and ET i could hit rockets which landed in the court, heavy loopy balls and nice controlled angle Shots with enough spin to drag out the opponent.
Can do the same with the ET and BK. For the Aero, Atomos fits very nicely because of the lower powered nature of Atomos.
Comfort: BK > Atomos
Bit of a sore Elbow. But i have a history of Tennis Elbow and a very sensitive arm. Could be the Balls, switching Rackets very often, Atomos freshly strung without enough time to settle, haven't been playing for a week and didn't warm up my arm properly etc. etc.
Too many factors to say Atomos is an arm killer or not comfy.
It feels Plush and has a very satisfying comfy sensation in the sweetspot.
Feel: BK ?? Atomos
Drop shots, Touch volleys were nice and achievable. Nothing to report here.
I felt connected to the ball.
BK is also great in that department.
Slices didn't float and had a good controlled underspin.
Kick and Slice Serves were great and had a good amount of Spin and Kick.
Flat Serves weren't special.
But my first Serves were a bit off today. Some bombs landed in the zone but nothing i couldn't achieve with other strings.
And after the session : No notching like with Alu Pearl Rough.
Some marks yes, but the string itself is intact.
I'm eager to play a bit more with this string. Expecially in the EZ98 because with BK it can be to powerful. I like lower powered strings like Tour Hex or APR in the Ezone.
Could be a good fit i guess.
But for my ET i probably go back to BK, just because of the sound and not the playability.
I think Atomos fits very well in the ET but could have go down in tension like 23/22
Would i recommend this string?
Yes, no doubt. It seems to be a lower powered string with high Spin Potential and a plush feel.
If you already have been a fan of Tru Pros lineup, i think Atomos is a great addition.

Just in time I got to string my racket with another Tru Pro string. I just strang up my V2 Elevate with the Tour Status 1.25 at around 21.5kg full-bed, because touching it and starting pulling the first main I'f expect a stiff response, so didn't want to go too high.

Wondering the same thing -- just got a sample pack they threw in with a ghostwire purchase and was thinking about giving it a go in an EZ98. question is tension (their website says they strongly recommend 52-48 lbs) and whether to go full bed or cross with GW or maybe PTP since PTP plays so well in EZ98
IMO the tensions in my ET and PA were a bit too high. Would go down 1-1.5 kg the next time.
EZ98 has a dense Pattern so i would start at 23 kg full bed before trying a hybrid.

I ended up just crossing Atomos 1.2 with Ghostwire 1.22 on one of my EZ98s. I Didn't want to take any chances with my sore shoulder. I went 49/48. DT off my eCP was 34 right off the stringer which is pretty high considering the reference tension. I did not like this set up on my first hit off the ball machine. It felt very stiff and boardy, no feel. I measured it when I got home and DT had dropped into a much better range for what I was looking for at 29. I grabbed it today for a short hitting session and it was EXCELLENT. Just and absolute beautiful plush pop off the string bed, excellent dwell time allowed me to feel really connected to ball. Spin was pretty nasty, balls I thought were going long were dropping in. Seemed quite powerful to me crossed with GW at this tension... I really had to relax and trust my racquet to do the work. Can't wait to use this setup again, a real joy to hit with today. Limited time on it thus far but maybe similar to Tour Bite Soft??

I was ready to write this string off but I'm glad I gave it some time. I agree with recent posts that the string requires some break in time to really shine.
At first I tried this with GW crosses and felt it was boardy feeling yet inconsistent. I have since learned that this is more attributed to the soft GW (i have now switched to Durafluxx as a standard cross)
Trying it with DF crosses, the response was more consistent yet still boardy and close to too stiff for my liking. But after about 90 minutes of decent pace hitting it really came into its own. I strung this at 52/48 but next time I will string at 44/42 to see if I can skip that breakin time. Pocketing is now sublime. Snapback is almost as good as durafluxx. Spin is awesome and this is what makes me think I can still string pretty low without sailing balls long.
I haven't tried a full bed yet but that may be another experiment soon.
I don't have too much experience with RPM blast but I think this string is comparable. It's like an RPM blast soft version.

Encouraging you guys all like the playability, but I must say, I'm not wild about the seemingly long break-in time. Like @FrankyRelax, I'm curious if stringing lower would alleviate that.
For scenarios where I want immediate performance right off the stringer, there are too many excellent options out there that don't need any break-in time, at any reference tension (Head Hawk, IsoSpeed Grey Fire, Mayami Tour Hex, Grapplesnake Tour M8, even MSV Focus Hex -- a 12+ year old string...).
Curious to see how this shakes out as we experiment with more tensions, gauges and frames.
