Tennis stringsThis string plays great for me

Nice syn gut! Powerful!It's a fairly nice string, good for someone seeking extra oomph. I found it to be very powerful, it had nice spin and control directionality, but balls were going longer than anticipated, seemed like my average shot depth moved back three feet. Extra power/ depth could be nice if one adjusted to it. Strung at 52 pounds in VCore Pro 97 - Coming from Gosen OG-Sheep micro 17g.

Comments: I bought this string a couple of months ago, and the string itself I like, especially for the price. The one thing that I find odd is that the string is oily. Every time I use it I get this residue on my hands which then gets on the racquet I'm stringing and the machine. I don't know if this is normal. If this is normal, I will definitely have to try another brand. Aside from that it's a decent string. There isn't really much else to say. It is a synthetic gut, and you get what you pay for. I use it in a hybrid set up with Volkl Cyclone. I haven't decided if I prefer it in the mains or crosses. Although, it does seem to last longer before breaking when used as a cross string.

Comments: I use Volkl Classic Synthetic Gut 17 String as a cross. It is slippery/sticky depending on the mains.I string my mains with: Gosen Tecgut Remplir -- slippery even after prolonged used and Ashaway Dynamite WB 16g -- slippery for a while (30 minutes) then becomes a little less slippery. I will update as I use it with other Mains.

Comments: I thought that this string was slippery (low string to string friction). It is, but only before use. After hitting for a few minutes, it became sticky (high string to string friction). I will try it by itself next time.
