 (>30 hrs.) n.a.
I'm an advanced player (more than 6 years of playing). I played with this string more than 30 hours (to test it, but I usually cut after 15 hours), and it still didn't break.
The quality of the stroke is of course not very good because of the time I played with them.
I play with moderate topspin, I prefer to hit flat balls.

 (18 hrs.)
After 18 hours the string became suddenly stiff (I can feel in my elbow), the same happened with Head Rip Control.

With this string, Wilson Kobra Tour became more APD like racquet with a little more control.

I like it.

Great string, my only complaint is about tension stability, it drops dramatically after 2 hours of play. Probably the best string out there for the first 2 hours of play. Then it loses properties and control decreases.

Absolute Rating Durability Power Control Feel Comfort Spin Tension Stability
This string has the certain something. On impact it feels like the string is generating extra power to rocket launch the ball without sacrificing control. For me the best string I've played so far. You must try this string. I cannot confirm the often mentioned tension loss / loss of playability (played approx. 8 hours so far).

I used to play the Tornado as my default string. The Alu Power Rough provides an even better feel, especially on the ground strokes. I like it even better than the X-One Biphase.
