Overview
Solinco Barb Wire is a very impressive co-poly that provides exceptional spin potential and control. It also has above average comfort for a firm and durable monofilament. This string's square and twisted profile provides added bite, making it easier for the player to load the ball with spin. This thin 1.20mm version has greater spin potential yet slightly less durability than the other versions

Comments: I am a club 4.5 player and have a big swing with a lot of topspin. This string was made for me. The playability and especially the bite and spin it generates is incredible.

Comments: I'm loving Solinco Barb Wire 17g. I have it strung at 56 lbs in the mains with synthetic gut at 58 lbs in the crosses. At first, I hit baseline practice and It was a little hard on my arm but it didn't last anymore than 2 or 3 hitting sessions. There is a noticeable difference on my second serve. I've been told that my kick is really jumping high. This string is every bit as good as Luxilon Alu Power Rough 16L and with a better price.

Comments: This string worked well for me. I used this as a main at 48 lbs, my cross strings are a softer multi feel at 51 lbs. Great spin and seems to be easy on the arm for me! Also get a little more pop on my serve. Used on Babalot Aero Drive.
