Description

Still In Black Protect string

STILL IN BLACK wanted to develop a string with the comfort and performance of a rigid string.

The result is maximum comfort when striking, and greater control and precision. Despite its high rigidity, Still In Black Protect delivers good ball speed.

Its hexagonal shape makes it easier to create spin.

Ideal for players looking for a firm string without the discomfort.

    First trials with this stringing across with gut. The goal is to have super comfort with control. Successful trial. Still in black brings comfort without turning the racket into a trampoline. (Translated review)

    Tested on Artengo TR930 FlaxFiber tensioned at 22/21. It's a rather special string. It's flexible so comfortable, but also very responsive to ball pressure, a characteristic shared with stiffer strings. In terms of spin, it spins quite well, the shape contributes to that. Quite forgiving on off-center hits. Not very powerful despite its soft side, but not excessively so, rather precise. It's a string that is quite interesting in its properties, which I could try again in the future. However, you really need to tension it well to enjoy it: it is really soft when strung, and loses quite a bit of tension just after being strung, and stabilizes afterwards. Don't hesitate to tension it a bit tighter than other monos, without excess. (Translated review)
