    I have a few regulars who have a knack for breaking strings much quicker than others with the same strings/tensions (both have been using various 0.70mm types), I see Yonex now offers the huge (0.74mm!) BG3 string which should be pretty durable (and probably good for mooring boats as well).

    Has anyone tried out this stuff out?

    I strung 2 rackets for clients and tried them. One was BG3 @22/24 and the other @27/29. IMO the string is really awful when it comes playing. A very soft feeling. Softer than BG65, the string is slippery and moves alot. According to my clients database the string did not last longer for them. It is on par with ZM70 and BG65 when it comes to durability but both perform better. I would skip it.
