Springy feeling string with good pop. Seemed to hold tension ok but broke pretty quickly. Overall played pretty well though. Definitely has a unique feel to it compared to what I am used to.

Played on hard court using Wilson balls at temperatures between 55 and 70°F. Easy to string. This string last forever but lacks power and spin. Good for stringbreakers. I eventually cut the strings out after 7 weeks of play. String condition still playable but power was gone.

This is unlike any string I have played with. It strings up like a poly, that means stiff. The amount of power generated is amazing for a synthetic and the spin is good. However, the strings move a lot as both my mains and crosses moved quite a bit. Not as much as Tecnifibre multis but still quite a lot (little more than Prince Synthetic Gut DF). Otherwise not too bad.

Stringing was typical of a poly string. Strung it 10% below normal synthetic gut. Very stiff and wire-like. Kinks easily but not as badly as Big Banger or Poly Plasma. Also gave a very slight stretch compared to the two mentioned. All of the testing was done on indoor hard courts with a moderately fast surface. Balls were Pro Penn, Wilson US Open and Dunlop Championship. Broke strings on a hard return of serve after about 10 hours of play. Performance went a little dead toward the end of the string life.

Compared to Luxilon Big Banger and Signum Pro Poly plasma 1.23 the test string had a slightly softer feel although it seemed a little harder on the arm and shoulder. Very comparable to the Poly Plasma.

Stringing was a bit slow when doing the last few crosses. Played on hard courts using Wilson US Open balls and strung it on a Head LM Prestige MP.

Felt rather springy for a monofilament. Had more feel then regular monofilaments too.
