Luxilon ALU Power

This string is designed for high-level performance and features a high stiffness level, which can be demanding on the arm. It is generally better suited for intermediate to advanced players who have developed consistent technique and are looking for precision and power.

The 1.25mm gauge is a standard '16L' thickness that offers a balanced compromise between durability and feel. It provides enough substance to last through heavy hitting while remaining thin enough to offer the crisp, responsive feedback that competitive players prefer.

Because ALU Power has a round shape rather than a textured or shaped profile, it does not inherently 'bite' the ball to create extra spin. It is designed primarily for players who prioritize power and control, relying on their own swing mechanics to generate spin.

Like most co-polyester strings, ALU Power will experience tension loss over time. While it offers excellent playability initially, it is known for a 'dead' feel as the tension drops, so you may find yourself needing to restring more frequently than with synthetic gut or multifilament options.

Yes, this string is designed for all court surfaces, including clay. Its monofilament construction is durable enough to withstand the abrasive nature of clay courts while maintaining consistent performance.

You can expect a firm, crisp feel that provides a very direct connection to the ball. This lack of 'mushiness' is exactly why it is favored by professionals who want to know exactly where the ball is going the moment it leaves the string bed.
