Luxilon Savage

The hexagonal cross-section is designed to bite into the ball upon impact. This mechanical grip helps you generate more topspin, allowing you to swing aggressively while keeping the ball within the court boundaries.

While Luxilon Savage uses liquid crystalline polymer to improve comfort compared to traditional stiff polyesters, it is still a firm, control-oriented string. If you have a history of arm issues, you may want to pair it with a softer cross string or use a lower tension to reduce shock.

The 1.27 mm gauge is considered a 'middle-of-the-road' thickness. It provides a reliable balance between durability for heavy hitters and enough feel to maintain touch on volleys and drop shots.

Standard polyester strings are often very stiff and muted. The multi-mono construction in Luxilon Savage is designed to offer a slightly more responsive, 'livelier' feel at impact while maintaining the durability and spin potential that polyester players expect.

Like most polyester-based strings, Luxilon Savage will experience some tension loss over time. However, the liquid crystalline polymer composition helps it hold its characteristics longer than many entry-level polyester strings.

This string is primarily built for baseliners who rely on heavy topspin and pace to dictate points. While it offers decent feel, net players who prioritize touch and softness above all else might find it slightly too firm.
