Hi all,
I've recently bought my own Blade 98 V9 because I value the dwell and pocketing from the frame. I know strings are a minefield and very subjective, but I found myself a very experienced stringer, and the first question he asked me was if I’m a string breaker, which I’m not. From there he recommended a hybrid set up - a soft Babolat string in the mains (not sure what it was) and Wilson Sensation 1.35mm in the crosses. I didn't like that much, so I asked to swap the set up around and for him to put the Sensation in the mains instead. He swapped the Babolat string for Yonex Poly Tour Pro. I quite enjoy this set up.
For context, I’m transitioning from an eastern to semi western grip for more spin. And I’m experimenting w/ a one hander and two handed backhand at the moment. I’m quite content w/ multis in the mains for the timebeing, but is there a better string for crosses in a hybrid I should be exploring?
Thanks.
