Overview
Please note: Kirschbaum has changed the name to Pro Line Rough. Same string, different name
With Pro Line Rough Kirschbaum adds some texture to the surface of one of their most popular co- polys. Like the standard Pro Line II, this string's low-powered response allows big hitters to take huge cuts at the ball without fear of overhitting. This not only enables the player to swing faster in the service of pace and spin, but it also makes it easier to close out points with ambitious shots. Although this is a firm string, our playtesters loved the feel and reported zero problems with discomfort. Big swinging intermediate and advanced players looking for control and durability should give this string a serious look.
Pre-stretched for added tension maintenance.

Comments: This is a great string. I use the 16g in a 18x20 string pattern racquet at 50 pounds. I'm an open level player but as of the last few months have been able hang with and occasionally beat 4.0 players. I'm 6' 5" and in good shape just not a naturally quick guy so big serves and hard flat strokes are my game style. With that said, this string is great because it seems to offer good spin and amazing predictability. Though it's described as low powered in the reviews, it has plenty of pop on serves but is fairly low powered when redirecting heavy pace (in a good way). The tension maintenance seems to be really good for me as well I leave a set in for a couple months and really can't tell much of a difference in tension. The only reason I change it is because it eventually gets notched and doesn't seem to put as much spin on the ball. I'm on my third set after 6 months and plan to keep using this!

Comments: It's a pretty decent string that allows full cuts at the ball with good amounts of control and good amounts of spin. It really beats the balls up pretty badly though. The string leaves black marks on the tennis balls and the balls lose compression pretty quickly with these strings, so I guess it definitely is rough.
