Kirschbaum Pro Line Evolution
The Kirschbaum Pro Line Evolution is a softer feeling polyester string that offers great ball pocketing and access to spin. Because the string is pre-stretched, it maintains tension better than other, more traditional polyesters. This string is 10% lighter than most co-polys, providing more power and spin. This results in a powerful, yet comfortable string with plenty of spin potential and control. This is one of the leading polys at this time. Superb Hybrid main string.
Kirschbaum Pro Line Rough
Pro Line Rough is a softer feeling poly. offering an outstanding combination of power and control with a rough texture to give the ball better bite. Excellent durability and great tension-maintenance due to Kirschbaum’s pre stretch treatment. Works well as a hybrid.
Luxilon Adrenaline
Offering a crisp feel, Adrenaline is big on control. Powerful players will find they can take big cuts at the ball and still keep shots within the lines with this string. The control-oriented response also makes this a spin-friendly offering, as players will find the confidence needed to keep swing speeds high.

Luxilon Savage
This six-sided co-poly offers extra bite for loading the ball with spin. Players with long, fast strokes will find the needed to control to crush the ball. The Liquid Crystaline Polymer construction adds an enhanced feel. Best suited to aggressive baseliners who like dominating the opposition with a heavy combination of pace and spin.
Babolat RPM Blast
This firm and durable co-poly is very spin friendly. The slick surface of RPM Blast allows the main strings to slide out of alignment, grab the ball and then snap back to add spin to the shot. While all co-poly monofilaments do this to some extent, lab tests confirm that RPM Blast is exceptional in this regard. Though RPM Blast offers a slightly softer feel than traditional polyesters, it is by no means the softest co-poly available. It is an ideal choice for big hitters with heavier rackets seeking maximum control, durability, and spin.
Luxilon BB Alu Power
The Big Banger Alu Power gives a full parcel of performance and accuracy to every stroke. The string produces a good spin and retains tension very well without loss of performance. At the same time it is extremely tear proof thanks aluminium strengthening. It is unmatched in playability and stability and therefore correctly considered one of the best Tour tennis strings among champions. Alu Powers co-polyester monofilament construction enables players to hit the ball extremely hard without sacrificing control. This is a firm feeling poly.

Hybrid
Hybrid is the mixing of two different types of string in the same racket. It has become popular in the last few years due to the rise of polyester-based strings. Since these poly strings are stiff, many players have mixed them with softer strings to make for a more playable and comfortable string bed, while retaining much of the poly’s spin and durability characteristics.
We offer pre-made sets or we can build your own from stock strings. This is a more affordable way to achieve your perfect hybrid set up.
