    Hm ok, here's the deal. I'm an advanced player (well I'd like to think so anyways haha) and I mainly play doubles with the armortec900 offensive racket. I love to defend and attack (coach carved that into my head pretty much) and i've used lots of different types of strings. Currently I'm using bg68ti string at 24lb's. I generate massive power off this type of string. On the chart, it says that 68ti is pretty low on the power scale. I've used 65ti, 80, and the other "higher power" strings, and HAVE had quite a bit of power as well, but 68ti is just as good for me. Same with bg85. In general the "touch" and feel of the strings is the main difference but power wise I haven't REALLY had too many problems or differences between these strings.

    So basically all I want to ask is that in your opinion, how would you rate the bg68ti string in terms of power. Seeing that chart just bugged me haha. Sorry for the rant lol.

    First of all. AT900 OFF doesn't exist. Second BG68Ti sucks. I would never use that string ever again.

    so i guess i was not the only feeling the same way.

    i've used BG66, BG80, BG85 & recently on BG65Ti & BG68Ti. all these strings were strung between 23lb to 24lb & i seems to be able to generate more power in my smashes for the Ti strings.

    I think string is a very personal thingy. it's not for everyone. ;)
