I have been wanting to test this string for a long tine in My Powerangle Centric racket., but everytime I tried string with it the string snapped.
Well I purchased some more and resrtung my Powerangle and yeah it didn't snap.
String with it is easy but with a constant pull machine let the string settle on each pull.
Didn't kink or have any other issues.
I used my normal tension of 53Ibs which is my reference tension for this racket.
Played a men's doubles game and was impressed, You have to use a full swing to get the most out of the string but when you do the racket comes alive!
Serves popped and my kick serve jumped higher than usual, drives and slices with a full swing (don't hold back) very very good.
Control is good, spin is good, power is good had no issues with the comfort so all good !
​I will use it till it breaks and let you know how I got on.
On reflection, would I recommend this string? no, why because it snapped 2 out of 3, so it failed  66%
It is a good string but really no I cannot recommend it as it's failure rate did not overcome it's good points.
This is my honest review that this string is great but fails on the installation, it just breaks for no reason?
 I really wanted this string to be good but it failed , so sorry.

    Hi I'm Dave Giles, This is my Blog page, please feel free to leave a comment, I will of course review any comment before it is published.
    I have been involved with racket sports for over 40 yrs. I am a string tester for  various companies. I play mostly tennis nowadays but have been tempted back to squash coaching.
