String Test: Pro's Pro Kingut 1.25

I was looking for another multifilament string so I have decided to test this string.
Pro's Pro Kingut is a new multifilament synthetic string, giving arm protection and playing comfort - the characteristics usually found only in natural gut string.

Constructed from highly elastic multifilament, they are compressed into a powerful string core. This string core is wrapped with a layer of braided, extremely tension retaining monofilaments and a layer of durable, flexible multi-filaments.

The nano-coating increases the durability. In addition, Kingut features high elasticity, rough surface, perfect ball control, comfort and feel similar to natural gut string.      Particularly suited for players with arm or wrist problems.


I have just strung up one of my Powerangle rackets with this string feels very similar to the Pro's Pro Dura ace squash string (The Dura Ace has been the squash players string of the month for the past 2 months so that bodes well for this string!) Stringing with this string is very easy no kinking or snagging, stretches as a multi does and feel nice when completed.

Will use this racket tonight at Tennis training!
Used this racket and string combination tonight and was very pleased with the feel comfort and spin potential (Powerangle rackets are renowned for the spin) Was able to put the ball where I wanted and used the slice to good effect!
Could serve "bang on the button" down the middle ,wide and topspin serves all went to the right spot.
I have been using polys so I strung this at 55Ibs ( powerangle recommends 53Ibs ) as I wanted a tighter stringbed for control, the next time I restring I will lower the tension by 2Ibs as this will give me more power, I know the string gives the control and feel.
