String: What's your favorite?

I've been through a lot of strings in the time I've played tennis, from beginning with the most basic Head Synthetic Gut in my first racquet, to the current hybrid setup of Pro Supex Blue Gear and Babolat Xcel.


You name it, I've probably tried it, from Pro Hurricane Tour and ALU Power back in high school when I was constantly breaking strings and my parents just got tired of paying for string jobs, to the current hybrid setup I use now since I don't play as frequently and having had shoulder surgery.

But I think my favorite string of all time has to have been the Babolat Pro Hurricane hands down, the amount of durability and bashing that string took and still held up like it was fresh the next day is what made it my favorite string of all time. Had I not had shoulder surgery I'd probably still be using it today, but after trying it once post-surgery I had to go to something a bit softer which led me to the current hybrid I have today, sometimes I change it up and replace the Xcel with Wilson NXT Tour, but that's occasionaly these days, I've grown to like the feel the Xcel provides over the NXT Tour.


What's your favorite string to use currently?
