Our Signum Pro Polyplasma string test

Power and control

You can commit 100% to every ball you hit. This string gives you plenty of control. To find power, you'll need excellent natural qualities or opt for a very fine gauge 1.18.

Spin

Lifters will find this string to their liking, with good access to spin.

Comfort and forgiveness

Comfort on this firm string is limited. Shocks are less absorbed than on a softer string. If you're looking for forearm comfort, you'll want to go for a thinner gauge, and don't hesitate to lower your tension. A lack of tolerance is to be noted on balls played outside the centering zone.

Durability and tension hold

thanks to the addition of resin, this string holds tension much longer than other co-polyester strings. Its lifespan is also very good on standard gauges and a little more fragile on 1.18 gauge, especially if you like to lift.

Sensation / feel / stiffness

Note that this string is fairly stiff. As a result, the feel is rather firm, but the feel for heavy hitters is not to be outdone. For optimized feel, opt for the 1.18 gauge.

Tip Extreme Tennis

Don't hesitate to lower the tension by 2 kilos compared with a co-polyester string, because of its high rigidity. It's also interesting to note that Signum Pro Polyplasma stringing generates excellent control in thin gauge (1.18) and transmits spin much more easily.
