Still in Black Protect 12m Set

STILL IN BLACK PROTECT

Still in Black Protect is a hexagonal co-polyester built for control and comfort — a shaped poly that stays a little kinder on the arm than most. It comes in grey.

It is the more comfortable shaped string in the range, opposite the firm HTS.

On-Court Performance

The shaped or textured profile grips the ball for topspin with a low, dipping trajectory.

Control is solid once the string is loaded with racquet-head speed; the core is firm.

Power is low and comfort is limited; the profile wears and tension slides, so restring on a schedule.

Who Should Use It

• Topspin baseliners with fast, brushing swings

• Advanced club players who want shaped bite on a budget

• Kick-serve specialists

• Hybrid users wanting a spin poly main

• Players who found round polys not grabby enough

Who Should Not Use It

• Players with arm sensitivity

• Flat hitters who want a smooth slide

• Players who need free depth and power

• Beginners

Hybrid Setups & Performance Adjustments

Power
String low, or pair with a multifilament in the mains, since it adds little depth.

Control
A full bed at mid tension is controlled — the shape brings the ball down.

Spin
Keep it in the mains at mid-to-low tension so the profile can grip and release.

Comfort
Firm — drop tension and cross with a soft multi.

Tension Stability
Shaped polys slide faster — restring on a schedule.

Durability
Use a thicker gauge if the profile wears quickly.
