Luxilon Strings

Tennis professionals around the world constantly look for an edge in their game. For most tennis professionals, this means continually reviewing their equipment: tennis shoes, racket, balls and strings. The tennis professional has no control on the balls used, as they are dictated by the tennis association. This leaves tennis shoes, rackets and strings. The composition of strings used on a racket can make or break a player's success.

Since 2005, there has been an evolution of sorts in the strings being used by professional and amateur tennis players. Thanks to the innovation of string maker, Luxilon Corporation, the quality of strings has been impacted very positively. For those of a serious tennis persuasion, these new strings have taken the game by storm. These strings have been given credit for increasing the power of the return based on the bounce in the string. Coupled with the special alloy which makes up the strings, the play of the ball seems to be easier to control. That is, the ball goes where you want it to go. In addition, the overall spin of the tennis ball off the strings appears to be more intense. The strings are considered the top of the game, so much so that they are the official string for both the Association of Tennis Professionals and the Woman’s Tennis Association. By current count, almost 50% of both men and women professional tennis players in their respective top 100 play with these strings. Of the sub-categories of Luxilon strings the one that is newest and gaining popularity is the M2 Tennisstring. This string is made of extremely strong polyester, as well as a heat resistant alloy component.

Luxilon is now the brand name of choice for tennis strings. Their success continues and their popularity continues to grow.
