    my first of many post
    need to string my 88s pro what do you suggest i use ?
    i had the bg68Ti and liked it but dont mind switching to something maybe better or different .
    i'm a intermediate player that plays at clubs usually with nylon 65% of the time but occasionally feather 35%
    also i had my string at 22lb tension before should i change it a bit higher ?

    thanks in advance

    Was there anything you didn't like about your previous string setup?
    Is this a restring on the S pro or its new and you are choosing first string for it?

    EX63 is nice, but for plastics i always recommend BG65ti. Anything i consider nicer seems to suffer from low durability. Plastics feel really muted to me anyway. If I HAD to play plastics, I'd probably go BG80 again. It seemed to give a better turnaround in the stringbed. I'd also use a spare racket and save my S pro for feathers.

    Can you pinpoint any negatives for the 68ti that are making you want to swap? I believe its a smooth and soft string, good for power, sounds great. Less control than a more textured string.

    I haven't played with plastic for many years, but I have had both Bg68Ti, BG80, BG66um, Aerobite and Aerobite boost on a 88S (non pro though). And I would chose the regular Aerobite - I simply enjoy playing with this string and have a better experience using it.
