Strings & Stringing | Forum profile

I use it, and it's my favorite copoly along with the Tornado. It's not very durable for a mono string, so if you break strings often, avoid going under 1.24 gauge in Hyperion. It has very good power and nice spin for a copoly and UNCANNY tension and elasticity maintenance. I use my Hyperion as cross in a hybrid with VS 16 gut mains - and I can play on with this hybrid until I break the gut - after 12-15 hours with stringsavers...

Red works alright, It's just not as clear a contrast as White or silver would be. I just did a racquet yesterday with a red smiley on black MSV strings. I used a Gamma version though. One has to be a bit liberal though, beware that stuff is SO hard to clean once it gets all over the place =P

It seems my ink bottle does not supply much ink and that's why it is not visible...

They don't need it.

How bad is it? How recent was the onset? When you don't want to change the string type to something softer, your best alternative usually is to lay off tennis.

Even at $25.00 it is significantly cheaper than the local sports store or the guy at our club who...

If you hit with heavy topspin I bet you will love poly at lower tension. that's my guess. I played with MSV Hex 1.10 for a long time when I was using Dunlop Aerogel 100 (90 sq in). Nice string very easy on the arm. Insane spin. 2 problems: First, I was breaking them every other session Second and more importantly, since I switched to 4d 200 16x19 they lost their magic. with a bigger headsize and open pattern the stringbed became too...
