MSV Focus-Hex Ultra String Review
I’ve been searching for the perfect string now that I’ve settled on a racquet (more racquet reviews to come shortly anyway) and it’s for sure an interesting journey with a lot of high quality polys out there. One of them is MSV Focus-Hex Ultra. The MSV Focus-Hex Ultra is a white, co-poly hexagonal string which […]
Ivan Lendl Gets Signature String with One Strings
A few years ago I met One Strings in Bergamo, Italy when they released their new line of tennis racquets and strings. I haven’t heard from them in a while, but today they informed me about new Ivan Lendl signature string. Below is the press release. And here are my previous articles about One Strings: […]
RS Paris Octagon String Review
I’ve been trying out the new eight-sided string from RS Tennis – the RS Paris and here are is my review for this new polyester string from Robin Soderling Tennis. Fiirst of all I want to say that I’ve been enjoying RS Lyon as a cheaper but still solid alternative to Luxilon Alu Power over […]
First hit: Luxilon Alu Power Ice Blue
I’m starting a period of testing new strings and today I had my first hit with the Luxilon Alu Power Ice Blue and I wanted to give you my first impressions. I’ve played plenty with the traditional Luxilon Alu Power and although I think it’s slightly overpriced, I can see why a lot of pros […]
Dominic Thiem testing new strings
I got a question about Dominic Thiem playing with a new string in Erste Bank Open in Vienna. Instead of his usual Babolat RPM Blast in the crosses, he’s trying RPM Blast Rough Yellow. Dominic Thiem hasn’t had the kind of season a lot of fans expected him to with “only” one title (in Rio […]

Babolat VS Touch Natural Gut Review
I had heard so many good things about pairing my Tecnifibre Tfight 315 ATP Ltds (16×19 string pattern) with natural gut mains and poly string in the crosses that I simply had to try it. My usual setup is with my favourite poly string Solinco Hyper-G 16L at 22 kg, but if you’re a gear […]
RS Tennis – Balls and Strings review
If you’re a tennis fan or a Swede, I’m sure you haven’t missed that ex-French Open finalist (twice), Robin Söderling has quit tennis and devoted his attention to launching tennis products under his brand name RS Tennis. I’ve been playtesting the RS Lyon strings for a while and recently started hitting with the All Court […]
