Solinco Hyper-G 17 Tennis String

really powerful, great feeling strings

If you hit with top spin and want a powerful grippy string this is it! my hole family likes that string (myself, wife and daughter. Especially good compliment if you play with a control Raquet like Blade, it will give extra ump and spin.

Where can I begin with this string? I got the 17 Gauge at 50 lbs - Here's how it went: 1. The first 60 minutes of using this string, coming from a Babolat RPM I immediately thought "This is the biggest mistake I've ever made. JESUS are these strings STIFF and hard on the arm! I thought my shoulder was going to fall off after playing with this. First string that gave me such intense pain after playing. The spin was so intense that a lot of my shots were getting caught by the net, I had to adjust my swing path to make this string reach the opponent's baseline. It's very low powered and had to muscle through the ball to get some depth. 2. Three days after using it for the first time, I noticed the strings felt a lot better, softer and gripped the ball a lot better. My shots got faster, with increased control and direction. 3. Two days after that, I'm in love with these strings. I got the hang of it and now my slice serve is an actual weapon. The balls are curving and landing hard, cutting quickly to the sides, my opponents are really having a hard time returning that serve. After the first use, I almost ripped them off my racket to go back to the RPM's... but now that they settled in, these might just be the best strings I've ever used. Let's see how long they hold before needing a replacement.

Great string, perfect for hybrid set-up.

Durable, great value,

Only played one match with this so far, strung it low 45-42 in a Wilson Shift (3.5 male) - 17 gauge - like the control and access to spin - serves seem ok. I string myself - this was a decent string to work with - didn't stretch excessively when tensioning. I think next time i will try the soft version - always worry about causing elbow issues playing poly. my suggestion is don't string it above 52 in any frame - give lower a shot. Had NXT @ 55 in the racquet before - it was ok but sounded funny sometimes. (with a dampener) see how long it lasts.

I am an aggressive baseliner with heavy top spin hitter using 2nd generation Head Speed 360 Graphene. I've tried the 16L gauge which played well. Got decent spin and decent power but not too much. I could land my shots right inside the back baseline. Tried the 17 gauge to see if it would give me more touch feel and control but honestly couldn't tell much difference. The difference between 16L and 17 for me was durability. 16L lasted 24 hard hitting sessions before I cut them out. I'm not a string breaker but the 17 gauge snapped after 6 sessions. Could just be luck of the draw but still notable for me. Overall, I don't get the benefit out of Hyper G. I play better with MSV Focus Hex and get much more value out of it.

(Review from the husband) First, about my play-style. I'm a taller, harder hitting player and I spend a majority of the match on the baseline. I've never had a problem generating power, but was looking for a little more spin and control on my shots. I've played with gut strings a few times in the past and liked it, but durability was a problem and I'm too busy to keep getting my racket strung, so I typically play poly. After some research, I decided to buy these strings and I've been very happy with the results. The strings are pretty soft, and you'll instantly notice how much more top-spin you're able to generate. I've really enjoyed the extra spin I get on my shots now, and these poly strings are the closest you'll get to the feeling of gut strings. The one drawback I've noticed is that I have lost a little power on my shots. I've now been swinging a little harder to recoup some of my lost speed, but you'll have confidence swinging harder because of the extra top spin. Would definitely recommend these strings to fellow tennis players, and I hope this review helps.

Love this string nice feel great control and spin capabilities. Looks wow!

Je déteste le fait que le vert fluo jure horriblement avec ma raquette (à dominante blanche), parce que c'est de loin le meilleur cordage que j'ai essayé, j'en essaye d'autres et je reviens systématiquement dessus parce c'est juste le mieux pour moi et mon jeu. 4 étoiles parce que ça les tuerait pas de le sortir en d'autres couleurs, depuis le temps que les gens le demande.

Rispecchia la descrizione del fabbricatore.

Bello solo il colore, gioco con wilson blade 98 e secondo il mio parere non sono corde adatte per questo telaio...mi sembrava un'altra racchetta, naturalmente in peggio.
