Ultimate string of choice !

Currently using Mayami Tour Hex as a full bed in my VCore 95's (50M/46C) and I like it A LOT, good spin potential, decent power, durability is great, and the blue color is awesome. It's likely my ultimate string of choice, especially for matches but I want to play around and try other strings but I want something with a bit more power. Any suggestions? It can be any material, doesn't have to be Poly/Co-Poly.

If you liked tour hex but want a bit more power try mayami hepta power. Also solinco confidential can be good. Alu power, signum pro firestorm also have more power. Many will also recommend luxilon element. Not all mentioned strings are similar to tour hex but are also good (at least for me) and offer slightly more power.

Awesome, thank you! I'll definitely give Hepta Power a try. I tried Confidential, but was not a fan due to it being so muted (guessing it's the black color, all black colored strings have been muted to me). You know, I have never tried ALU Power, probably because of the price but I have 15% off and I should just give it a try.
 
@janelgreo Do you prefer such different tension between mains and crosses in Vcore 95 when using same string?

@galapagos razor code 1.25 white vs tour hex 1.23 ,considering power?

I'm ready to cut razor code (20/19kg) and try tour hex at 21kg..weather is getting hotter here..

Personally, I do. I found with the higher mains I get the nice control and the lower crosses the feel/power is better. Full bed same tension I tried 50 and was getting good control but a little too underpowered, dropping crosses to 46 gave me what I was looking for. Would still like a little bit more power, I guess I could drop the tension a little more. I’ll probably try that on one racquet and try Hepta Power on the other.
 
Head Lynx 1.25 review!

I tested this string in Head Graphene 360+ MP 18x20. Blue color :)
I must say it did have pretty cool feel. Soft, comfortable but still with enough feel and control.

You could say that it's a great "introduction" to Lynx family. Round, slightly more power than Hawk Touch. Similar spin. At the same time I think the spin potential could be slightly better. That's why I guess Head made Lynx "Tour" with a shaped profile. In comparison Lynx Tour is much stiffer string but with better bite. I think it's a good string for someone looking for something similar to Hawk Touch or Sonic Pro. In fact, maybe it performs somewhere in the middle of those two? Yonex Poly Tour Pro comes to my mind as well. From what I rememeber the price is good on that too.
You guys should already know that I like blue colored strings (Mayami Tour Hex and Luxilon Alu Power, maybe I should try Razor Code blue and compare to white version?)
Overall this string is great but at the same time it didn't offer me anything special, something to keep me hooked. Maybe that's the price? I would say Signum Pro Firestorm is a better alternative to Head Lynx. I wish Hawk Touch could be more affordable.

@galapagos Mind giving a comparison between Black Code 1.28 and Razor Code 1.30 and Diadem Solstice 1.30? Thanks :)
Click to expand...
I only tried solstice 1.25 but did try 1.25 razor (and 1.30) and black code 17 and 16 gauges.

black code is the stiffest, lowest power out of those 3. Not super stiff but not „mushy” either.
Then you have solstice power and razor code which imo are somehow on a muted side of feel.
Solstice power offers biggest spin potential but looses tension the quickest (but i actually liked the performance after the drop more). Razor code gives you most feel and consistent response.
i prefer 1.25 razor code vs 1.30 (white) but my friend loves the blue color 1.30 so Maybe i will try it.

if i had to choose one for the rest of my „career” i would choose razor code because overall i believe slightly more in round profiles and over time that consistent response is making a difference for me and my match results (even if i feel like im playing worse). But i am more a flat counterpouncher with feel rather than aggresive banga banga guy :p
I was surprised how much different in power lvl are razor and black code. Depending on the frame I would say black code is playing better at lower tensions and razor code is Ok with everything.

for example when i had black code and razor code in Iga frame i was happy with razor at 24 kg and black code was dead and boardy. I would probably adjust the tension to 22kg max to get similar „response”

Lower the tension or keep tour hex in the mains with a more powerful string in the cross

Nice.

So if you were a banga banga aggressive spin-to-win guy, looking for consistency and control, which string would you go for (could be outside these 3)?

Banga banga spin to win strings would be for me solinco hyper g, mayami big spin, maybe solstice power and tourna silver 7 1.25. Of course there is more but that comes to my head :p

Aha. Out of the 4 only hyper g and diadem solstice is available here. I've used hyper g a fair bit in the past and am only so-so as it lacks genuine put away power, isn't as predictable with touch shots, and doesn't age all that well(perhaps it deserves a second chance?); maybe I should give Diadem a try.

Fav of all time is gut/poly but my wallet doesn't like it especially when I'm breaking strings every 4 hours. The boom boom potential is addictive, though.

I'm in Aus as well, brought a reel of Tour Hex from Mayami Australia this time last year, price was very good.

depends on the gauge maybe? Most attackers I know use thinner 1.20 gauge, sometimes 1.25.
banga banga attitude means generating a lot of your own power and just unleash it. if you want more "help" in banga banga style then big spin and solstice power sounds good as they have slightly more power. Tourna Silver 7 Tour is also super dead so might not be for you. We are entering zone of Solinco Confidential and Tour Hex where you get a bit of help and maybe less spin but under similar control and more feel.

I'm a lefty so been drilled to hit heavy FH crosscourt all day and pounce on a short ball. Coach used to place cones 6+ feet high on the back fence, starting from outside the singles tram line, and we would just drill cross court rally balls to hit them after 1 bounce in. So no issue generating banga banga spin or power, BUT I don't like strings that 'inhibit' power output either, if that makes sense; and that's where I find strings like Hyper G and Yonex Poly Tour Spin fall under. Good spin, high launch angle, but a little anemic when wanting to flatten out. It's like the power/spin ratio just isn't quite in my wheelhouse. With the TC 100, Gut/poly has that perfect linear power/spin response that no matter how hard I hit, the ball travels fast and stays in. DTL shots clear the net by 1-3 feet, and fly off the back fence after 1 bounce in the baseline. Angled crosscourt shots and wide serves hit the side fence after one bounce and the ball is still rising. It is unreal.

This is the sensation I am chasing in a poly. I know there is no perfect replica, but so far I'm hitting with Yonex PTP and am ok with the performance. I am also recovering from a shoulder injury and when I do practice match scenarios, I have to rely more on variety and consistency to break down opponents.

gut/poly is really hard to replicate I guess :) now when I know your background I wouldnt recommend hyper g either ;p and thats why I actually didn't like it too (at least in angell frames as in blade it was nice).

so maybe solstice power, solinco confidential, mayami tour hex and hepta power could be on your list. in Angell frames I also like Signum Pro Firestorm 1.30 a lot. Most comfortable on that list would be Hepta Power and Firestorm then Solstice Power, then Tour Hex and Confidential. Sooomething like that. What's great in those strings is ability to flatten out the ball like you said with nice power.

Big Spin is mostly spin for the win :) (and very comfortable). I would also try it in tc100 just for fun. It was crazy spinny in Pure Aero so I guess TC100 should be cool as well. But it's not that great in flatter shots. You would need to adjust your strategy.

Thanks for the input!

Out of those 4 I like the sound of Firestorm the most, maybe because it's round and I like round strings. Also a big fan of the colour which goes well with the Angell. I need to find out where I can get my hands on 1.30 gauge in Australia (always the biggest challenge!). Next would be Tour Hex/ Diadem/ Hepta Power.

There's a certain sadistic satisfaction when imparting max spin and so much work on the ball and watch opponents squirm and squeal and catch their backhands late and out of balance. :sneaky:

Hit Pro also an interesting proposition. So many options!
 
@galapagos Finally got around to trying Big Banger Original. Strung up one of my VC95's with it. Because BBO is stiff and I mostly play with 1.20 polys at 21/20 kg (at least in my VC95's), I decided to string this at 20/19 kg.

Completely agree with your review of it. The control is huuuuge, most controlled string I've ever tried, even at that low tension (which I've only tried once). If the ball went anywhere else than where I wanted it to go, I was 100% sure the problem was how I hit the ball. It was never the strings fault, which I something I really like. Spin is really good for a round string, love it. You do need to actually keep hitting the ball to get any use out of this string. I struggled a little bit on serves sometimes. It doesn't have that extra gear that ALU Power has. That gear can help you in certain situations but it also makes it a bit less predictable. 0.0 predictability issues with BBO, nada.
Unlike you, I did like BBO straight away. But I really see what you meant, because the string plays better as time goes on.

I noticed my racquet was also a little harder to swing, because of the probable SW increase. But I could remove some lead from 12 if I decide I want to use this string more often down the road.

Because I used it in a practice session with three big hitters (two of which are the best players at the club), I'm not sure if BBO has sufficient power for me to use it at 'my own level'. Hitting with these three guys, I can always use the incoming pace of the ball to get some nice pace on my own ball. So, not certain if it gives me the zip and the putaway power when playing against players of my own level. Only one way to find out, so I'm really curious about that.

Comfort for me was fine this first hitting session. I didn't feel really plush like soft strings do but thanks to the low tension, the ball really sunk into the stringbed nicely and absorbed more than enough shock. It's a good sign that it does not give me problems right away, because I have a sensitive shoulder and elbow. But some strings can be like that in the first session and start to act up after a few more sessions. Will see how this one does, my guess is that it will be fine at this tension.

Overall, really impressed.

Ye difference between me and you is my „starting” tension. I should probably string it lower as well. Especially now when im playing more with RS305. (Maybe i will try original in it too!)

Keep playing with it. Power should increase slightly but this string keeps control for ever ;p

How are you liking Velocity as a cross? I’ve been playing with Triax/OGSM the past 5-6 weeks and was thinking about subbing in Velocity for OGSM as the cross.
 
I haven’t played OGSM in a while but from what I remember, syn gut felt like the ball just popped off my strings with no dwelling (ball pocketing) and too crisp for my taste. Velocity is more of a low powered muted softer string if that’s what you’re into…hope that helps
 
@galapagos strings for speed pro ?
i tried Tourna 1.25, rpm team 1.25, poly tour pro 1.25. They are all good. Maybe Tourna being the most grabby feeling , smaller sweet spot but control. Poly tour pro gives a nice feel. I have a 1.2 pack to test as well. Rpm team is interesting. It feels slippery and I seem to like it more indoors on fast courts.

I’m tempted to try some 1.20 see how it adds to the feel of the racquet. Razor code ? Cyclone ? No myami because I don’t know where to get that !

Razor code in 1.25 for sure. 1.20 probably too lively. Razor code is really forgiving and has nice pocketing and some power. I just compared black code to razor code one after another and my vote goes to razor.
Maybe luxilon original strung low… that could be very interesting. Hmm…hawk touch ? Cyclone is always fun and cheap but all strings mentioned above have much more feel and touch.

I was loving Silver 7 Tour in my 2 new Speed Pro’s, very crisp & controlled feeling. But a guy at my club let me hit his new Speed Pro with Hawk Touch and I think I like it even better. It felt great, amazing control and the launch angle seemed lower with it. I think he had 1.25 strung at 52lbs. I would also like to try with razor code, the demo I originally hit had Lynx Tour which was ok.
 
Ok 3 weeks are gone with Tour Hex. Played groundstrokes , around 12 super tie breaks and many serves on my own ( I serve around 180-188 kmh). The string didnt break and the playbility duration was beyond perfect. Save your money and never buy anything else if you want a super predictable , medium launch angle , super playbility duration , a tad more spin potential than round string.

Don't hit as hard nor do I play as much as you do but I agree, every time I play with this string it gets better and better. Had a 1 hour session with my coach last week and I was not missing and hitting about 2 feet from the baseline to the baseline. He was surprised how deep the balls were going and how they were just dropping in due to the spin. I also used it during a tournament this past weekend and man it felt sooo good. In my opinion to get the most out of this string you have to take some big cuts at the ball and have the RHS to back it up. It's definitely a control oriented string but if you swing hard with top spin, it will reward you.

I'm definitely going to buy another reel or two to stock up.

Edit: nevermind, sold out of reels :cry: with the situation I doubt a restock will happen soon. May just pull the trigger on Hepta Power

I am thinking about Silver 7 Tour 1.3 / GhostWire 1.27 setup. I love the Silver 7 Tour but it can get too stiff during cold nights and it's not maybe much about the comfort but more about the sweet spot being much smaller.

Do you think I should adjust the tension on ghostwire or treat it like an usual setup I use with fullbed Silver 7 Tour?

I would keep it the same for your first stringjob. GW is considerably softer but that's what you're after in this hybrid setup I assume. It's great at tension maintenance so I'd keep the tension the same for this setup.

I wouldn't do it personally. Silver 7 Tour has pretty sharp edges. It would shred Biphase pretty quick and break. It would also lock the stringbed pretty early on.

But that's me. I've seen lots of people being happy with their shaped poly main / soft cross or vice versa on this forum. I only hybrid soft strings (multi/gut) with round polys though, for myself and clients. Except if a client specifically asks for it and accepts how the strings will behave together.

By the way, I've also read that Biphase is not a great multi for a hybrid with a poly. Apparently it has a high string to string friction, making it sticky and get stuck out of place easily. I believe NRG2 has a coating on it that provides a slicker surface and more snapback. I've had great success with Head Velocity personally. That's a noticeably lower powered multi though than Biphase and NRG2.

Oh I haven't tried a hybrid in a while, I may have to do this! I'm fairly new to hybrids, Tour Hex on Mains and Ghostwire crosses?

Tier One Sports is running a 25% off promo right now so I'll definitely pick up a few strings to try them out!
