Power and control

This string is more about control than power. You'll be extremely precise with every stroke. To access power more easily, lower your usual tension by 10% ( Signum Pro recommendation).

Spin

spin remains classic for a semi-rigid monofilament string like this.

Comfort and tolerance

Assuming that Firestorm is a semi-rigid monofilament, we can say that it offers good playing comfort. Tolerance is average, and vibrations can be felt on off-center balls. You'll also need good striking ability to regain length on off-center balls. To improve tolerance, you can slightly lower your usual tension.

Durability and tension hold

Thanks to its molecular structure, Firestorm string has a good tension hold. As for service life, it's decent and similar to a standard monofilament.

Sensation / feel / stiffness

On heavy hits, the string's qualities are amply expressed, with an excellent feel. Don't hesitate to test the 1.20 gauge to better exploit the string's intrinsic qualities.

Our tip:

Don't hesitate to lower your usual tension for greater forgiveness and power. You can also opt for the 1.20 gauge for a better feel and sensation.
