I am a tennis coach in Helsinki, Finland. I have Triax in one of my Babolat Pure Strike 16 x 19. I have the mains at 24kgs... the cross at 22.5 kegs. I teach between 25 to 30 hours a week. I have been able to hit with my high level students and have come to the following conclusions.... A) Super arm friendly with a gut like feel B) Good spin potential.... almost as good as a “rough” poly string C) I will string my racquet a little tighter next time because my flat serves were a little long. SPIN SERVES ARE AMAZING WITH TRIAX!! D) Tension maintenance seems okay so far E) No vibration dampener needed! A PERFECT STRING FOR TENNIS COACHES AND ANYONE WHO IS SEEKING AN ELBOW FRIENDLY STRING! I will ultimately hybrid with Babolat Origin 🎾

Thanks for the feedback ! what about fraying ? I have multifeel and after a couple of hours it begins to fray; after 8 hours I may have the pieces...

Thank you for your new video. I am currently using either fullbed blackcode (strung from 38 to 40lbs), bi-phase fullbed (strung from 50 to 52lbs) or hybrid of both but I could feel that Triax fullbed (string at 46lbs) was a great option after a brief trial. No need to care about racket deformation like Hybrid. I agree that Triax is somehow close to natural gut feel. I bought a 200m reel without hesitation.

I love it. Been using it for the past 6 months.

Thanks guys!

Feels great, nearly like gut, but lasted only 5 sets, main snapped. Might try as hybrid with triax in the cross and a poly in the main.

Loved the soft/crisp and plush playability of this multi. It’s also durable. Feel is great. My main issue was that i found it low powered and i would like a little bit more easy spin. Hands down best multi i ve ever tested.

Excellent string to use in a hybrid setup. Lasts about 5 hours in my pure strike though

They feel super plush and comfortable but I got only 8 60 minute hitting sessions before they broke. Kind of an expensive proposition. Sticking to Proline II rough. They last 3 to 4 times as long. I may try them in a hybrid if the price improves

Great review. I would like to ask how does the Triax compare to the x-one biphase, NRG2 and Babolat xcel overall? I am looking for a good multifilament to string in my mains with a co-poly in the crosses.

I’m wondering how this compares to the other strings that tecnifibre makes, like x-one biphase, specifically in terms of which one is closer to a natural gut feel? Biphase tends to be praised as the closest synthetic to natural gut. I wonder how triax compares

Would this be good to string hybrid with a poly? I currently string hyper-g on the mains and head velocity on the crosses.

In subsequent mentions be interesting to know if it frays like gut or even if it needs too? Coach from Helsinki here really liked the spin already? Thank you for video Tennis Spin, couldn't be more timely 👍🙂

great content!!! what would you say on the control with this string if it was used on a 2021 pure drive.

I tried the 17g at 48/50 lbs - very nice

I tried Triax and I think it’s good. I used it on my Clash 98 BUT I think I prefer Luxillon Smart string in the clash. I strung it @ 55lbs

What gauge and tension (triax )would you recommend for head graphene 360+ prestige??? And how does it compare to head velocity mlt??

I totally agree it’s the best gut alike string in a full bed that I have tried. I would say that the stringing should be done depending on the weight of the racquet.

Is there an 18 gauge? It would be closer to a regular 17

What would be a good poly to match this string with in a hybrid set up?

What happen to the strings sets or strings reels that were purchased couple lf years ago. Did the strings lose its life time performance or quality? Thanks

What about the spin characteristics though compared to poly? How long does it last?

Hi Tennis Spin, thanks for your review. How did you feel with this string when stringing? You are a professional stringer so it would be interesting to have your first impressions when stringing it for the first time 👍

What do you think about putting this in 17g in the mains and Head Lynx 17g in the crosses, both at 53 lbs?

How would you compare this to the x-one biphase?

can you compare it to NRG2 and to strings like Babolat M7, I am using M7 at 54 lb in my Pure Drive

Is it a good replacement if you usually use a hybrid of a multi filament mains and poly cross? I often break strings but I need a really good crisp feel (needs to be somewhat low powered)

@cadethompson3617

hi steven. I just strung it up in my Pure Aero in a hybrid with RPM Blast and the setup is quite lively. If you're looking for extra control and durability, I'd say use a thick gauge and string it tight.

What Wilson racquets are those in white at the bottom shelf? N code?

Seems like this would be great as a cross string with poly in the mains. Other than the fact that it's a little pricey

Been having some arm issues lately, using full poly setups. So I switched to the Head Prestige Classic 600, had it strung with Tecnifibre TRIAX 1.38 in the mains, and Head Velocity MLT 1.25 in the crosses (@ ~22/23 kg). And it worked, pain is almost completely gone already. Excellent setup btw, highly recommended👌

Hi can you share what tension are you using? I love the hybrid setup- Triax 1.28 in the mains and Ice Code 1.20 but Triax broke too fast.. only after 2-3 hours. Thinking change to other poly in the cross.

@WaltKurtz68

@@yooyoungkim3011 This is why I chose the 1.38 gauge for the TRIAX in the mains. A bit better durability. Of course it also helps that I'm using it in a 89.5 square inch racquet with an 18x20 string pattern. It still plays beautifully btw. But I reckon a multifilament in the mains in let's say a Pure Drive won't last as long. So keep head size and string density in mind. And if you're a big topspin hitter you'll be restringing a lot more often as well. Tension: 22/23 kgs (48.5 - 50.7 lbs).

I tried TGV on Babolat Aero (Decima) last year and had to cut it after two games. Horrible control - like flipping a coin is more predictable; when hitting the ball the string was making a nasty sound, the vibrations were like giving resonance, speading throughout the entire racquet and the feeling was quite odd. I am using Head RIP Control now. Is TRIAX similar or better than that one?

What was your original setup for your clash? confidential at 48?

If you were doing a hybrid with Triax what would you recommend?

I am asking for advice. I'm a relative beginner. I bought a Head Extreme MP racquet that says they recommend HEAD SONIC PRO strings at a stated optimum tension of 57 +/-5 lbs. I bought a Triax - 17/1.28, but I can't find a recommended voltage anywhere. I see you have experience with Technifiber Triax, please recommend lbs to get the most out of its features. 2. Is it necessary (is it better) if the horizontal and vertical strings are of different tension? Thanks!

i like your enthusiasm but you are not telling me how it compares to similar strings from other brands. is this a new category? I wish i saw this video yesterday before ordering a few sets natural gut and ashway mono gut zx. I will give it a try thanks next time

Get clash 98.

The string feels lively n'touchy right from the start in 1.28 mm. However, I couldn't find any added spin potential compared to other multifilaments. I played it hybrid in my PT57A (16/19) on the mains and paired it with HEAD Hawk Touch. Tension was 21/20 kgs. Well, Triax snapped after an hour of play right in the middle from a clean hit. A bit of a disappointment as I don't break strings often. Won't buy it again. Instead, I'd opt for my trusty multifilaments X-One Bi-phase and Wilson NXT Power.

Tried the very expensive Tecnifibre HDMX before which is a poly multifilament and looks like it's made exactly same as Triax. This is just a cheaper version of HDMX. Frankly, I wasn't impressed at all by HDMX but felt it was slightly better than Lux Element but prohibitively expensive. I'm definitely not buying into this hype. Been burnt already.

I hardly can play 3 hours with this string and then it broken.

So this is better than the other one from a month ago? ^_^ The Ytex string? Polyamides (poly - amide) are a family of plastics - nylons are polyamides. Polyesters are another family of plastics - mylar and PET (what they use in 2 liter pop bottles) are polyesters. Both are known for toughness and (for nylon) elasticity. I'd guess PU is polyurethane, no idea what SPL would be. Given what you've said about natural gut strings in other videos, it sounds like this is a slam dunk. Wonder why "synthetic gut" strings are the cheapest string available - aren't those supposed to approximate natural gut?

Wish it would be a good replacement for gut mains (snapback and a bit power)

How about TECNIFIBRE TGV ??

I have to use poly

No mention of how expensive this string is; I can generate my own power so I'll stick with TF Redcode at half the price, thank you very much.

Luxilon element loses tension totally in 8 hours max. triax I’m not sure what to make of it. Hit hard like a poly and I don’t get enough spin like a poly. Hit flat and it’s not as powerful as gut. I guess it’s really in between. It’s better than hybrid, hybrid really doesn’t work for me.

Hi! How about putting it on cross with lux alu power 125? Is that a great combination? Thanks!

You Try HDMX yet ?

Hello, greetings from France; please, while you comment products, give us tension in Kg as well, i am a french follower and that would be highly appreciating for a better understanding, thank you for your consideration, keep going like this on your vids, i like it !

It's a multifilament, kind of like X-One except it's got poly fibers instead of a poly coating. Might be decent in a hybrid, but multi is way too powerful for me and this shit is seriously overpriced especially since it's 50 percent nylon.

I am not quite sure what they were thinking with Triax following so closely on HDMX (another poly-based multi... the ostensible replacement of the HDX Tour). TF has some issue with marketing, and I think it shows from the fact that power was the first thing you talked about, but then note that it's nowhere on the packaging. They are keeping the "HD" moniker around, but not for Triax? I guess it's not engineered with "HD" tech, whatever that is?? If you want my honest take on it, TF just said, hey, let's hit 3 price points... we'll sell this Duramix thing as an "economy" string at 200 Eur / reel, we can sell Triax at 300 Eur / reel, and let's plop this HDMX at 250 Eur / reel. I ask you, look at this video clip... facebook.com/watch/?v=656443724840044&extid=xFa0agc5z4LBY39x ... and tell me what name you might pick to describe the geometry... tell me you think "tri" something, as in "Tri-ax", 3-axis of symetry, etc.! But look again, because that video is not for Traix, it's for HDMX,. Maybe they just ran out of their HDX Tour stock sooner than expected and said, hey, we have to launch the first one with an "HDX" name? Who knows... but it don't make sense to me. One thing you don't discuss is how the surface of the string feels when you are working on the string job. I found that HDX tour was kinda gummy, in contrast to another poly-based multi, the Dunlop Pearl, which was on the slick side. When I was stringing Ice Code recently, I thought of Pearl (now discontinued), which had to be strung north of 55 if you didn't want your strings to be moving all over the place. Does this Triax have a "rough" / gummy outer jacket, or does it feel like the same coatings TF is currently using for their Ice Code? Just curious.

Poly user trying a multi-like string and applauding its feel and power.... 🤣

7:17 fcking LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

The first string type PolyAmide is pronounced like poly-AIM-I-de. Unlike polyester which is rough and dry polyamide is smooth and silky and is often used as stand-ins for wool or silk fibers (natural polyamides)

I heard these have terrible durability. Loses tensions quick.

I experienced that issues with HDX Tour. It was like, why pay "multi" prices if it's going to need to be restrung like a poly. However, I have also a theory and that is that pre-stretch these strings causes them to break, like if you were doing that to a poly. It's just a theory based on a few anecdotal incidents.
