Toroline Cash String Review: A Crisp, Control-Focused Poly That Shines in Doubles and Singles
Toroline Cash is an interesting string because it was developed with the help of doubles player Julien Cash, one of the best doubles players on the ATP tour, who helped design the shoe specifically for doubles. I’ve used it on the court for a while in both doubles and singles matches with my Head Speed […]
5 Best String Setups for the Pure Aero 98 (2026)
The Pure Aero 98 (2026) is one of those rackets that gets a lot of attention from players who want some spin and pace but don’t want the full heft of the weapon. It’s aerodynamic, it’s responsive and that 16×19 pattern is very easy to generate rotation. But it’s so spin friendly that the string […]
The 5 Most Overlooked Hybrid Setups Right Now
I spend a lot of time on the court trying different hybrid setups. Some setups are recommended by other community members, coaches or players and some are just my own experiments when searching for the best strings for my game and looking for that perfect sweet spot of spin, control and feel. Over the last […]
I Tested These 5 Strings Over Months on Court – They’re the Best for Flat Hitters
For the past couple months I have been taking strings to the courts on a regular basis, testing them out for my own game and for the clients that keep asking me the same question, “What’s the best string to flatten out my ball?” It comes up again and again – flat hitters who want […]
5 Luxilon Strings Ranked: From Control to Comfort
I get asked about Luxilon strings all the time from my clients and fellow players, and the question that comes up the most is: “What holds tension better than ALU Power?” It’s a fair one. ALU Power is legendary for performance, but is also known to lose tension and feel harsh if you’re not used to […]
5 Best Poly Strings for Players Ready to Move Beyond Multifilament
Players who want to switch from multifilaments to polyesters have a tricky choice. You have the feel and comfort you love from multi, but you are starting to want more control, tension stability, and spin potential that poly can give you – without all of a sudden having a stringbed that is too harsh, boardy […]
Tecnifibre Razor Spin String Review
I got my hands on the new Tecnifibre Razor Spin a little after Jonas put out his first look at the string, and after a full playtest I have to say I quite like it. That might come as a surprise from me, because I’m usually not a fan of four-sided strings. Square profiles tend […]
Volkl Cyclone vs Cyclone Tour: Spin, Control and Comfort Compared
I have tried Volkl Cyclone and Cyclone Tour in a few different frames and the comparison is interesting as they feel related but not interchangeable. Cyclone is the more classic, control-oriented option, while Cyclone Tour is clearly the softer, more modern version with a little more comfort and liveliness. In practical terms, one gives you […]
Solinco Hyper-G Soft or Confidential Soft? My Full Review
I tested both Solinco Confidential Soft and Solinco Hyper-G Soft in the Wilson Blade 98 and the Pure Aero 98, which is a good way to compare them because those two racquets demand slightly different things from a string. The Blade 98 is all about control and feel, while the Pure Aero 98 is more […]
Solinco Hyper-G or Toroline O-Toro? My Full Review
I’ve hit both Solinco Hyper-G and Toroline O-Toro in the Babolat Pure Aero 98 and Wilson Blade 98, so I have a pretty good feel of what they are like in two very different, but equally demanding frames. The Pure Aero 98 naturally leans towards spin and easier access to pace while the Blade 98 […]
