    How do you compare the Confidential to the Grapplesnake M8 and Toursniper?
    I tried the Yonex Polytour Strike in my Extreme Tour 360+ and loved it. Wonder how it compares to that one as well 🤔

    I'm a 3.5 and I use a full bed of this in a wilson blade 100 v7. I use the 18 gauge to help with spin. What I love about this string is that my rally ball never goes long which lets me use full strokes and gives me confidence to attempt to hit winners , which at 3.5 ya know how that can go but I actually can reliably hit winners with this string. Compared to a hyper g, it's less bite but so much more predictable. With the hyper g I'd hit long for no reason sometimes.

    @JohnSmith-pb4ri Před 10 měsíci +1

    I tried Confidential but it didn't work for me. Maybe have been a bad string job but I haven't had a chance to try it again. Currently using RPM Blast 17g in the mains @ 53lbs and and Luxilon 4G Desert Bronze in the crosses @ 51lbs in my Auxetic Extreme Tour. I've always liked Hyper G but haven't put them in this racket yet. I've always liked Hyper G Soft in all my Pure Aeros and Pure Strike.

  • @vwmusicplaylist1935
    @vwmusicplaylist1935 Před 10 měsíci +7

    Confidential is like playing with steel cable strung in your racquet. Super stiff, doesn't bend etc which is why its predictable and doesn't lose much tension. Great if you have a modern heavy topspin game, and hit 99% of your strokes perfectly every time, never being late on the ball, never hitting out of the sweetspot, don't have a stiff racquet etc. For everyone else....forget about it as it will just shred your arm over time and destroy your tendons.

    • @thecat4272
      @thecat4272 Před 10 měsíci +1

      I agree. Unless you string it at really low tensions, it's a really stiff string on the arm.

    I bought a confidential 17 gauge coil for my extreme tour auxetic but I broke it after 4 hours. Do you think that with the 16 gauge they would withstand much more tension?

      In season I have a fresh racquet for every single match. I would say max a week if we had a few days off. Off season is a different story. I’ll play with the string longer.

  • @c0mpuipf
    @c0mpuipf Před 10 měsíci

    having just bought a coil of the confidential and tested lynx tour before (the black color): why did you not like lynx tour? I find lynx tour pockets the ball better, it has also a predictable launch angle, a waay longer durability and overall a bit more comfortable for me. But i still went with solico because it feels great as well; the question is whether you ever compared these two side to side, fresh as well as after maybe a week or 2? After i broke the Lynx tour and went back to the solinco string, i found that there is less spin for me, the ball was sailing out and i had to do a lot more wrist action to bring it back in court....curious what your thoughts were

      @dennisxjapan1626 this explains a lot, thanks. No reviewer mentioned that and it makes complete sense. Do you test sw altering of strings often? If I don't have a sw measuring machine, can I just take the weight of the string and sort of compute the difference? So many questions
