Title: Seems to have changed formula, more brittle now
Product review: I used this Pro Supex Blue Gear 17 as the Mains on my hybrid setup. I had a 660' roll of the natural color. The original roll had no issues when I strung it in a Head Metallix 4. After I finally ran out of the natural color Pro Supex Blue Gear 17, I ordered this blue color reel. It should be identical?? to the natural.What I found is that the blue color is more brittle than the natural color string and on 6 failed attempts to string the Head Metallix 4, the blue string broke at the same point (most severe ~130 degree turn at the throat of the racquet) on three different racquets. I tried using tubing but that broke too during the stringing. I am experimenting with replacements for the Mains. Right now I am testing (and liking) the Pro Supex Ultra Spin. It strings up with no issues and has a nice feel on the court.
