I prefer playing singles but I'm also playing a lot of doubles.
Playing style is quite aggresive, most of the time I'm trying to gain the attack and then continue from there on. In doubles I'm probably better in the rear court but I'm also feeling comfortable in the front court so no real preference here.
Racquet: Voltric 80
String: BG65 at 24-25 lbs
I must say I haven't really tried anything different from BG65 extensively enough to be able to compare, but I'm using BG66 Ultimax on my N90II right now and I really like the sharp feeling of it. That said, I'm comfortable with BG65, probably because I've adjusted my timing to it over the years.

**ilostmybrain** · 10-24-2011, 02:02 PM

Update

Gameplay: Singles and the occasional doubles
Style: Aggressive even though i'm rather weak, i prefer smashing cross court a lot to create openings, in doubles, i'm usually pretty fast around the net, so i usually set my partner up or just finish the rally.
Rackets: Main - Arcsaber 10 w/ BG65 strings and PINK (=D) wilson pro overgrip, back up Nanospeed 9000 Type S w/ BG85 strings and head towel grip, second back up racket - Apacs Edgesaber Z-spark w/ BG80 Strings with Head towel grip

I've been using BG85 for a while but ever since i noticed they were snapping on me rather quickly...and BG85 is rather expensive so.....BG65s here i come..

P.S I was thinking of using BG66 Ulitimax one day, any comments about it?

Don't like the 66UM. Feels spongy after a few sessions and is not very durable....
Recommendation: try the BG80. It's more durable than the 85, I think, and still sharper and more powerful than the BG65. If you choose the BG65, string 2-3lbs harder than before to make up for softer feeling and tension loss.

BG66UM strings are good for the first 2-3 weeks but then the strings feel dull you can try them but it is better to go for strings that are more durable like the BG80 or BG66

Hey guys, i forgot to mention that i have used BG80 before, they were great but a little expensive, oh and J4ckie, i'm currently using BG65s at 25 lbs
