Who it is for

Advancing and competitive players looking for polyester with a very firm response.

Why it works

Luxilon 4G is a co-polyester string in 1.25 mm and 1.30 mm; the round profile gives it a predictable, even string bed.

Watch-outs

Polyester loses tension quickly and is harsh on sensitive arms — restring regularly and drop tension rather than pushing it.
