My go-to poly stringsI was having trouble breaking string every 4-6 hours and tried a bunch. Through that process found some that lasted but were very uncomfortable until I landed on the Hyper G's. Combination of durability, power ,control and comfort. I play with a Head Boom MP and string at 47#.
Had to replace them immediatelyThese strings were incredibly loose compared to the regular 17 gauge I had been using. I played with them once and had to restring.
Good serviceVery good service in general

First time using a polyAt 50 years old I finally tried a poly string. Always was afraid to try because I occasionally get some elbow pain. This string is quite comfortable and offers a lot of control. I’m playing it in on full bed and at about six hours of play time, it’s holding up well.

Excellent StringFor a polyester I found that it was a very comfortable and spin-friendly string. I strung it at 50 in a 2021 Babolat Pure Drive and so far so good. I'm a 3.0 - 3.5 player and I'm able to generate enough spin so that the ball dips at the last second on the baseline and can often surprise opponents, not to mention surprising myself! No arm or elbow pain so far, all in all a great string in my opinion.

Soft and ButteryGood durable yet soft and buttery string. Still puts plenty of spin on the ball and has felt great after two sessions. Have it strung at 57 in my Blade v8s.

Great string!Everyone in my house uses this string. I have noticed that a lot of other people in our area use it too. The color is very distinctive so you can always tell. Good string!

Comments: I have been a big fan of Hyper-G (crosses @ 52) strung in a hybrid with Babolat Touch VS gut (mains @ 55) on my Babolat racquets (Pure Aero Plus and now the new Pure Drive 2021).Fantastic spin, great feel with a nice pocket. They offer supple control and they keep their tension very well. I feel a subtle difference in the soft version and its all positive. Great strings!

Comments: Loving these strings. I had some elbow issues with regular Hyper-G. Don't know if that was the string or that I strung them too tight in a stiffer frame, likely the latter. I'll give regular Hyper-G another try at a much lower tension, but I'm playing with this string in the meantime. In the hand it feels much like Head Lynx Tour, a matte finish to the string and shaped. But, it plays much more arm-friendly than Lynx Tour. I really like Lynx Tour and like this string better. Lower powered, even more control and great pocketing. It starts out kind of stiff, but after an hour it feels incredible. I've been hoping a Solinco string would work for me due to price and durability and I've finally found one.
