Signum Pro Poly Plasma 1.18 Tennis-Bargains.com Review

Pros:

Some people prefer it over the Topspin Cyber Flash because of its "crisp" and lively feel. It also has a very distinctive  neon orange color. Soft yet powerful string.

Cons:

My only complaint was that I found that SPPP in 1.18 gauge is a bit easier to break than CF and the Black Magic strings...but if you get the 1.23 gauge it is a bit more durable.

Other reviews:

New research on the science behind "Super Spin" in new Co-poly Strings (such as Cyber Flash)

In this article by the Atlantic Magazine, author Josh Speckman explains the physics behind Rafael Nadal's incredible spin potential and how technology has taken modern tennis to a completely different dimension today.

Check out this video about the Science of Spin in Tennis (with footage taken from the ITF).

There is also an excellent video that shows this "snap back" effect of polyester strings. "Co-polyester" strings such as the acclaimed Cyber Flash and Cyber Blue strings are merely poly strings coated with special lubricants that allow the string to slip and slide back into place after contact. They propel the ball with a recoiling snap effect while maintaining the durable characteristics of polyester.
