    I'm looking for a string with the highest repulsion power.i'm currently using at700.

    The shop owner recommended Gosen Pro66. He said in terms of repulsion, it is superior to all yonex strings. I'm not sure if it's better(in terms of repulsion) than bg66 & bg85. those who own pro66, can u post a review of pro66 here plz:confused: .

    it's called Rose. It's in Hong Kong. To be specific, it's in Mong Kok. They sell rackets and strings at a really gd offer.

    I'm quite fond of gosen pro66 strings. they sell for about US$4.00 here in manila. add US$1.50 for labor

    I can't really compare it directly with YONEX BG66 strings, but I like em both. Repulsion is about the same, but the Gosen allows a little more control because of it's rougher texture. The "Whapack" factor is almost the same, but the BG66 still takes the cake here.

    Try them. you won't be disappointed. :D

    Bumping this thread for

    Which I am looking forward to experiencing. I've got a set of these to try to compare to 660ti and vs850. Mark A is doing similar I believe. Compare notes here please!

    This feels similar to vs850 to the touch. Doesn't give/creep much when stringing but does seem to drop more than average afterwards. It didn't have the wow factor of vs850 but I strung it in a racquet I no longer like playing with. Power was nice, sound metallic and crisp, control ok, nothing bad to say about it but no magic. I'll probably try it again but not in place of vs850.
