Luxilon Big Banger Original offers outstanding durability and control, yet with surprising power and a slightly softer feel than most polyester tennis strings. Revolutionary co-polymer nylon, mixed with fluorocarbon resin construction holds tension well, resists notching and excess string movement. Greater economy in a 660 foot reel vs. the equivalent number of sets.

Big Banger is a unique state-of-the-art string, with all advantages:

  • Combines enormous power and added control.
  • Weather and moisture resistance.
  • Enormous durability.
  • Loss of tension: Almost none.
  • Has more sensitive touch.
  • Superb feeling on impact with the ball.
  • Strings do not move any more once strung.

    Luxilon Ratings:

  • Durability--10
  • Power--9

  • Comfort--7

    ATTENTION: Luxilon advises to string approximately 10% lower than usual.

  • Length: 660ft. (200m)
  • Gauge: 16 (1.30mm)

    Control & Feel
    This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

    Excellent String. I am a 4.0+ all court player, use New Pro-Staff, 55 lbs. Thinner gauge provides excellent spin while only giving up slight durability. String has outstanding control and feel. I use this string for full racket and have no arm issues. Provides very consistent feel and precision of shots. Plus still able to rip a 90 mph forehand. best string I've tried. Both my daughters play college tennis and they are now using this string.

    This is a great string. It looses tension quick so I would account for that in the stringing unless you are going hybrid or per-streching them

    Prince Topspin Duraflex
    This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

    About 15 years ago I tried many topspin strings and settled on Prince topspin. Then I discovered the Duraflex (PTD) version and it lasts twice as long -it's very forgiving and generates power when you have to. The string gives me good bite on the ball and gets it over the net but in the court. I've tried other hot-shot strings that the 'pros play with' that gave me more power but no control and also can't stand the metallic titanium feel - the guys who recommended those 'power' strings all have shoulder problems!. So back to PTD and all's well. Just ordered a dozen packs for the year.
