n.a.
I stuck to the stringing recommendations and strung at 23/24 kp. That was definitely too low because I significantly lacked control, power was too much. Only the spin was great.

For volley players this string (like other hex strings) is not suitable at all. Due to the texture the ball comes off the stringbed at unpredictable angles.

Next I will try the string in 1.18 combined with Kirschbaum Pro Line No. 2 1.20 crosses to get better control plus the spin of the Hex :)

You can feel the hex structure during stringing. I've been playing this string for around 1 month outdoors on clay and I'm really satisfied. The 1.10 mm are perfect for me. Great feel and good power. I've switched to this string from the SPPP 1.18 since the MSV just plays more comfortable while the other characteristics are about the same or even better (elasticity, feel).

Stringing was no problem. I really liked the playing characteristics. Quite similar to the Poly Plasma 1.18 but softer with better spin potential. Really interesting alternative.
