Currently looking for a replacement of Volkl Cyclone as my main string. My college coach usually doesn’t buy reels for people that are the only people using the string so just in case, I want to know what to use. :/
Buy your own reel and have him use it for you when you string?
I understand but the reason I’m asking is because my college has an account with both Wilson and Solinco so my coach can grab those strings for me instead and I don’t have to pay out of my own pocket.Buy your own reels in the colors and diameters you want. Label the reels as personal property if you want your stringer/coach to store the reels otw just give him the lengths required to string your frames. You could also learn to string using the machine if he lets you use it.

The first thought I had was that Tour Bite would be a good switch to or something similar. I had used obviously Cyclone, as well as RPM Blast and Hyper-G in the past but Cyclone was my favorite one. Tour Bite, according to TWU, is I think a very comparable string.
Also, the funny thing is I am my school’s stringer haha.
Yeah that’s my bad, major brain fart oops. I’ll see if I can get my hands on a set of that then.Welp if you're restricted to 2 brands that's also kind of something you should have added to your post. Doesn't help if people give you 5 different options for different brands if you can't use them.
In my experience, the closest thing to Cyclone from Solinco would be Confidential. Tour Bite is more crisp/lowered powered and Hyper-G is more lively where Confidential is more in the middle, dead and muted. On the Wilson side I'm not sure. I would probably say Revolve Spin, but wouldn't recommend it. Does the Wilson contract also include Luxilon? If it did there are a lot more options.I understand but the reason I’m asking is because my college has an account with both Wilson and Solinco so my coach can grab those strings for me instead and I don’t have to pay out of my own pocket.

I did use Confidential when it was first tested out, but that was a couple of years ago, so maybe I'll try it out.In my experience, the closest thing to Cyclone from Solinco would be Confidential.

I second the idea of Solinco Confidential or TB Soft, full bed or with a round SG if you want it even softer and more pop.Currently looking for a replacement of Volkl Cyclone as my main string.

I string for people that have used both the black and the yellow Cyclone. They have said they play quite a bit different, that the black is softer. So, you might want to try one of the other colors than what you're playing with currently.
