From the very first strokes of the racket, you'll notice a string that's very explosive when struck. This dynamism combines perfectly with ball control, which remains the dominant factor. The power reserve is satisfactory, but players with a good stroke quality will appreciate it more.
Spin
As for spin, it is slightly above average for a round polyester string.
