    Hi there, I"ve only experienced the Wilson strings that came on the Wilson Rackets. Of the two, I've tried Wilson Sensation Braid .68mm, and WIlson DynaSmash .72mm. For me, I prefer the .68mm one, I can feel more, and found it quite responsive. DynaSmash on the otherhand was a great disappointment to me. Now my Wilson Ncode N3 is strung with Ashaway MP .70mm, amazing string I must add. Of course, these are my opinions.

    I haven't tried them myself, but wilson is sponsoring some of the best france's young players and they seem quite happy with it. And, I find the rackets very well looking :)

    Good day!

    I have tried Wilson KFlex 66 strings a couple of times on my Wilson K tour racket at 30x32 lbs. It feels good for about 2 weeks of use (playing 1 1/2 hrs a day, 3x a week). After which, it feels dead. I kept going back to my Ashaway Power Gut 66 after cutting it. You know trying to feel the difference. Why don't you try it? For me, Ashaway PG66 last longer.

    I've tried kflex 66 on my Wilson Recon BLX and i find it very repulsive and powerful. Strung at 26lbs. Unfortunately, it broke on the second game and now got it strung with bg 66. In comparison, i feel kflex 66 are more powerful but bg 66 has slightly better control. Will try kflex 66 again and hopefully it can last a little longer.

    I feel Wilson badminton string is not what you want to go with.
    1) They are much more expensive than other (Ashaway MP and YY BG65)
    2) Performs just OK and tension is not holding.
    3) Not available in most of places.
    4) Not made by Wilson...
