LUXILON ELEMENT ROUGH 12M SET

LUXILON ELEMENT ROUGH

Luxilon Element Rough is a textured version of the popular Element string, combining Luxilon’s Multi-Mono technology with a roughened surface to increase spin potential. It retains the exceptional comfort and arm-friendliness of Element while adding more bite and rotation to the ball.

Positioned as one of the most powerful and comfortable polyester strings in the Luxilon range, Element Rough offers a unique blend of elasticity, spin and playability.

On-Court Performance

Element Rough delivers a soft and elastic response with a slightly more structured feel than the standard Element. At impact, the string feels cushioned and comfortable, while still providing a responsive connection to the ball.

Power is high and easily accessible. The string generates strong ball speed with minimal effort, making it ideal for players who want effortless depth and heavier shots.

The rough surface enhances ball grip, resulting in improved spin potential and a more aggressive trajectory compared to the smooth Element. Players will notice better rotation and easier access to topspin.

Control is improved compared to the regular Element due to the added texture, but remains slightly below firmer control-oriented polyester strings.

Comfort remains one of its biggest strengths. The Multi-Mono construction absorbs vibrations effectively, making it one of the most arm-friendly polyester options available.

Durability is moderate. The rough surface increases performance but slightly reduces lifespan compared to the smooth version. Tension maintenance is stable, with consistent playability over time.
