Yonex Rexis is my favorite at 54lbs... but it notched bad at 2nd week and about 14 hours and started fraying so I cut it out at about 17 hours because I had a match that weekend and didn't want it popping during my match.

Cool review. I've been using this string in a hybrid as I've got a mild case of tennis elbow. Multi in the main, poly crosses. This string surprised me how comfortable it is and quietens down the poly. It's good rehab for my arm.

Awesome review, getting my Pure Aero strung with Wilson Sensation 17 @55lbs tomorrow, looking forward to it. Also really like the concept of tennis-bar =]

Jonathan I was hesitant at first because I knew there would be obvious performance drops coming from poly, and of course as tennis players we are trying to squeeze every little bit of performance out of everything to gain an edge. But it reality this string shined in certain areas and made up for other areas. Was just an overall comfortable fun experience - and fun factor isn't a string spec but maybe it should be. Would LOVE to try ZX and have it on my radar for sure. Would make for a nice review. Thanks again

How long did you get good play from this string? I have a set lying around & usually go for a hybrid set up.. I am also looking to try Hyper-G ! TW also recommended going super low on tension with poly like 44-46lbs in my Pure Strike 98. Thoughts!? I'm liking the channel, keep up the great vids!

@EvokeTennis

mikecbrblue full bed I’d say about 10 hours of good play, then it snapped about 12 hours, so in line with the playability of most polys - and cheaper, more comfy. Yes when I tested Hyper G I was at 43 lbs so on a pure strike I’d say definitely because you have plenty of stiffness from the racket. It’ll be powerful, but a fun one for sure. I just got a reel of hyper g so I’ll be playing around with it! Cheers HNY!

Oh I wonder what you would think of HDX Tour. It's supposedly a multi that's both arm friendly and gives the spin and control of a poly.

Agree the sound is great and plays awesome. Better than ppa and x one biphase.

Did you enjoy tecnifibre triax? I wonder if it has good spin and control like a poly. Nice review

Gonna try a full bed of multi at 10 pounds approximately tighter tension. Thanks

You mention a tour bite soft in 18g to play up. What tension would you recommend for that in a 2019 pure aero? Currently using rpm blast at 52lbs but it is somewhat unpredictable

@EvokeTennis

4 жыл бұрын

If your arm is good with the rpm at 52 you could probably bump it up to 55 on tb soft 18 and it still be way more plush. Warning though, if rpm blast in that racket is unpredictable, you'll find tb soft to be way more unpredictable in the control dept. I personally find it worth it to have more comfort day to day, so it's worth it for me.

Slick videos dude. Maybe consider reviewing your mic setup. Lots of echo from the room

Poly main with a multi or natural gut in the cross is the way to go. Best of both worlds.

It seems so many players are scared to try that combo and insist on a full bed poly. Of course they can play with whatever they want but the feel and playing experience is so much better with a multi in there!!

Great video. Just had the same conversation the other day. I think I need to crawl with a hybrid set up before walking with a full bed of sensation. Maybe a video with TB in the mains?

@EvokeTennis

totally understand, figured I'd go full bed with a basic multi just as a baseline - which was quite a change coming from a full bed of Ultra Cable. Yeah I was expecting comfort but it gave more than just that. That's a good idea for the next video as it's a nice progression. Thanks for watching and the feedback!

I really wanna hear your thoughts on Gamma Glide! It is a half set only and it is said to increase the spin and comfort and power of any poly. and there isnt many reviews on youtube for it. I'm gonna give that a go next with some volkl v-square in the mains. Really wanna see if it can maximize the spin on a sharp square poly like that

How about the vivid smell multis have? I've Wilson Sensation and Diadem Impulse on 2 rackets now and they smell much more than polyesters. Actually, polyesters don't smell at all.

How does this compare/contrast to the Head multifilament rip control?

@EvokeTennis

haven't used rip control yet but have strung with it for others. In the fingers it feels stiffer and more control oriented than sensation.

Good question - I did play two official matches with this string tbh they weren't very threatening opponents so it was a good chance for it and it worked out well. If I'm playing up you know I'm gonna be reaching for TB Soft 18. In retrospect I can really see a multi being in the bag for those longer practice sessions or if you are playing a lot/feeling sore.

do a full bed of natural gut next!

@@friarcisco8717 totally agree that's why I went with the full bed of a basic multi just to set the record straight and work from there. I got about 10 hours out of the sensation until it popped last night - which isn't all that bad considering a lot of polys begin to fade at that mark.

Even syn gut Is more lively and comfortable than a poly. Multi all the way though for feel.

Do they get stuck? Or move ?

They start moving after the first hit but not to a detrimental level. That's the biggest difference to poly, these do get stuck but I didn't notice ill effects really. Just straightened the big ones out between points and that was it.

Not a bad string, though I don't enjoy the sloppiness of the string bed in a hitting session or match.
