Played for approx. 4 hours indoors on carpet. Very easy to string. I normally play multifilaments due to my sensitive arm. But I still wanted to try this "orange wonder".
Result: It played amazingly crispy and precise in my Head LM Instinct. The string provides great feedback, you instantly know whether you had a clean hit or not. Average spin and power (maybe I should have strung softer?). Extremely good tension stability. Great control string for hard hitting advanced players. For me the Plasma is a bit too stiff. I had arm problems quite soon (which is the case with every poly for me). So overall this is a great string but unfortunately not suitable for me due to my sensitive arm.

Easyto string except for the knots which were a bit difficult for a beginner like me due to the thin gauge.
I could hit with very good control but still with power. Also I found it quite easy on the arm. Sometimes I missed some feedback, but overall a great string, especially at this price! |

Strings like most polys. Tested on clay courts in average 20-25 celcius heat. Used Yonex Tour tennis balls.
This string shouldn't be strung to loose because it is quite powerful. It has the standard tension maintenance for SPPP (very good). I only noticed one significant drop in tension at around 6 hours. It has slightly more spin than other gauges and has great playability. Control was great and so was feel. Could really serve with it too.
Personally my fav SPPP... very playable. But sadly for me durability is an issue and I hate having to continually restring it. |

| Signum Pro Poly Plasma 1.23 is a less spinny, less power, more controlled string in comparison to me. It's well worth trying both gauges to find which you prefer. If durability is an issue then I believe 1.23 should be the choice for you. |
