POLY VS. MULTI: THE PERFECT HYBRID SETUP

BREAKING THE MOLD

For decades, players had to choose: the durability and spin of polyester, or the arm-friendly power of multifilament. Today, the world's elite players rarely use just one type of string. Welcome to the hybrid setup.

THE POLYESTER MAINS

Stringing the vertical (main) strings with a stiff co-polyester gives you maximum control, durability, and massive spin potential. Because the mains dictate the majority of the racket's feel and spin production, poly is the engine of the hybrid setup.

THE MULTIFILAMENT CROSSES

Stringing the horizontal (cross) strings with a soft multifilament or natural gut opens up the sweet spot. It adds free power, vastly improves comfort, and protects your elbow from the harsh shock of a full bed of polyester.

BUILDING YOUR HYBRID

By combining the two, you get the vicious spin of poly with the explosive pop of a multi. It is the ultimate custom tweak to dial in your equipment precisely to your playing style.
