who'is the swiftness? (topspin CF/CB/CS)

[Maloya]

which one is the swiftness, sweetest? ?

on the TW tool, we find the following measurements:
topspin cyber flash 17: 159lb/in
topspin cyberblue 17: 183 lb/in
Isospeed cream 17: 179 in/lb

I can't find the measurements for topspin cyber soft.

currently I play with MSV cofus hex plus 38 1.25: 173lb/in

what can I conclude?
than cyber flash softer than msv +38?

and comparing MSV hepta twist 17, I find 181 in/lb. (so softer than cyber blue?

I'm lost!

I assume you mean Stiffness for same ref tension. You can adjust stiffness by using different ref tensions. Knowing this number only tells you what to perhaps avoid if your arm can’t handle stiff strings. Look at POSG and OGSM SG. They could be stiffer but I use them because they are where they are vs Babolat SG.

Do you like Babolat Syn Gut? It stretches a lot, it's coating makes it easy to string, but I haven't played with it yet, just strung it for others. Does it play well?

No, I prefer POSG and OGSm over Bab SG. The feel is crispy vs ‘meh’ from BSG at same tension.

The Babolat is definitely softer. It stretches like crazy when you string it too, but it's so easy to weave. Reminds me a little bit of Babolat NVy, but not quite a soft. Hard to believe they made a synthetic that was even softer.
