UPDATE: oh, the pain!!! Review by Ryan

Quality

This string was amazing, until it goes 'dead'.
i am suffering from tennis elbow and almost cry when i think about how how dramaticly it could impact my tennis life ( i will be a pro for sure). but the pain is unbearable. i had this stuff in for a month and now i have to waste even more money on another re-string. i have in my bag 3 sets of RPM blast 16 and some babolat attraction. i will deffinately try attraction at maybe 53lb not sure. i know that if i use RPM blast now, it will put me in a commar. i have not lost faith in this string (i won the DVTA 2 consecutive times). i will maybe go to rpm blast at 51lb. i am just warning you about using polyester, if you notice lack of ball bite and balls going long when you attempt a dropshot, cut em' out. hope you can learn from my pain. BTW: THIS STRING IS AS ADDICTING AS NICOTINE.

LIVE LONG AND PROSPER

Great for the claycourter Review by Ryan

Quality

This string is amazing! you can go for impossible angles with no effort compared to the cheap nylon I used to use. Since I use a full western forehand grip it wasn't easy getting used to the low power level of the string(55lb). You can hit the ball very aggressively from the baseline and have no fear if it going long. Last night I won my DVTA tennis grand final with this in my Babolat aeropro drive cortex. Ball pocketing is indescribable. I was spinning people off the court. amazing on kick serves. my heavy spin turned into extreme nadal style spin, which bounces over 6'1 guys shoulders on carpet!
Go on give it a try! This string was destined to satisfied!!! (Posted on 26/11/11)

Pro Hurricane tour Review by Andy

Quality

Rafael Nadal uses 15 gauge Duralast string however for marketing purpose they advertise that Rafa uses it. Rafa also doesnt use the new aero pro drive GT racket. He uses the old Babolat racket which is painted to look like the cortex.

This string is ideal for someone with an eastern grip looking for more spin. I wouldn't recommend this string for someone who has a western grip as it would definitely generate lot of spin but then very tough to generate pace on the ball. (Posted on 24/04/10)

OK string Review by Aswin

Quality

Currently have one Pure drive strung with this string. Good spin potential, slightly more comfortable than ALU ( maybe this is caused by reduced tension I used on this one).
With this string, I am not worried of going long most of the time since the control and spin is just enough to keep the ball in the court.
Great feel also (Posted on 6/07/07)

Not much better that normal Pro Hurricane Review by Jacob Coleman-Bock

Quality

Pro Hurricane Tour was a little bit of a let down as I was expecting a large spin increase from normal pro hurricane.

The string overall is quite powerful and spin friendly, but I felt it didn't have as much control as many other strings. Eg Signum Pro Poly Plasma (SPPP).

I would recommend this to those who need power and spin, but for more serious players and stronger hitters, take a look at SPPP. (Posted on 6/07/07)

One of the best! Review by Cris Moreno

Quality

Tried this string (17g) in a Babolat Pure Control+ @ 60 pounds. It is one of the best, if not the best, poly string I’ve tried. I used to use Luxilon ALU Power, but the Hurricane excels in control, tension maintenance and arm friendliness. Both seem to produce the same amount of spin but Luxilon ALU Power seems to have a little bit more of raw power. May be that is the reason why I, like somebody said here, do not worry too much about the ball flying.
