| I used to play this string for 3 years on my Head i.Radical (630 cm²) and was satisfied with it. I liked the great spin potential and the good feel. In the meantime I switched to the more comfortable frame Wilson nBlade with a more open string pattern, and after testing a few strings I got back to the Rip Control! Good value for this type of string. |

In my opinion this string should not be strung above 25 kp. At first I tried 26.5 kp which was kind of muted. At 24.5 kp it provides good comfort.
The string starts to fray quickly (already after 10 minutes) and does not last long. I was surprised that in 70% of the playtests it was the cross strings which broke, I had never experienced that before.
Easy to string, but it snapped a few times when pulling the knot with the machine, so it needs to be pulled by hand. |

| It's hard for me to compare since I only played Big Banger Alu Power during the past years. I clearly prefer the Big Banger but that does not mean that the Head isn't a good string. |

| I think this string is the best I've ever played (comparable to natural gut). From now on this will be my standard string for the upcoming summer season. However I haven't played it on clay yet so I can't say anything about its durability on that surface. The string lasted about 15 hours indoors on carpet. |

| I had a lot of grip on the ball with this string so very good for spin and slice. It did however feel stiff for a multi, which made the experience a bit less comfortable than expected. Only downside, the string does not provide lots of power. |
