Full Review
Luxilon ALU Power has been a staple on the professional tour for years. It offers an excellent balance of power, control, and spin that few strings can match. The string provides crisp feel and good ball pocketing. However, it does lose tension relatively quickly, so frequent restringing is recommended for optimal performance. The price point is higher than many alternatives, but the performance justifies it for serious players.
