How to choose the durability and feel of the tennis string?
String durability
We usually want our tennis line to be omnipotent. It has a good hitting feel and is very durable. Unfortunately, desire and reality cannot be reconciled. Usually durable tennis line is at the cost of sacrificing the feel of the ball. Tennis strings with thicker specifications and harder materials will be more durable. But their elasticity is not as good as thin and flexible nylon strings. If you often break the nylon string of No. 16, I suggest you switch to the same style of 15L tennis string. In this way, the durability of the string can be improved. In addition, polyester strings of the same specification can also be used instead. Finally, if you use any size tennis line, it is easy to break. That hard Cavilla string will be the last choice. Its tough texture makes it the most durable tennis line today. However, the feel of the ball is worse than that of other materials.
String feel
It is really difficult to conclude what kind of tennis line is best to play. Some players like tennis lines that are harder and more brittle. Others think that a soft and comfortable tennis line is better to play. Generally speaking, a good tennis line needs to have good flexibility. So that it can bounce the ball back at the moment of contact with the ball. The material, structure, and thickness of the string will all affect the feel of the ball. The tennis string with the best elasticity (bumping feel) is still natural cattle and sheep gut strings. Although they were the first tennis lines to be adopted. But so far, no tennis line of any material can surpass its hitting feel.
