Luxilon ALU Power Soft Tennis String

Luxilon ALU Power Soft Tennis String

Luxilon ALU Power Soft is the comfort-optimized member of the ALU Power family — engineered for players who want the directional control, spin production, and tour pedigree of classic ALU Power but require a more forgiving, arm-friendly feel that makes long sessions, heavy training weeks, and tournament schedules more sustainable without forcing them to sacrifice the control-first string bed character that the ALU family delivers. By softening the co-poly compound while preserving the ALU Power construction's core directional precision and spin-enabling surface, Soft gives players the ability to enjoy ALU Power-level performance without the cumulative arm stress that standard ALU Power's stiffer response can create for players with higher hitting volumes or existing arm sensitivity.

• Softer Co-Poly Construction for Arm Comfort - ALU Power Soft's modified co-poly compound reduces the string's stiffness and impact harshness compared to classic ALU Power, providing a more cushioned, shock-absorbing contact feel that reduces the arm fatigue, elbow soreness, and wrist stress that very firm polyesters can create during high-volume hitting — without abandoning the control-first character that defines the ALU Power family.
• ALU Power Directional Control Preserved - Despite the softer construction, ALU Power Soft maintains the precise, stable string bed response that ALU Power is known for — keeping launch angles controlled, directional accuracy high, and string bed behavior predictable on aggressive groundstrokes, serves, and approach shots, so players don't give up meaningful control to gain the comfort advantage.
• Spin-Friendly Slick Surface - The ALU Power Soft surface maintains the smooth, low-friction coating that enables the main strings to deflect and snap back through the ball for topspin generation — allowing the softer construction to still support the spin-active playing style that modern competitive players require from a co-poly setup.
• Ideal for Arm-Sensitive Players - A particularly valuable choice for players transitioning away from full ALU Power setups due to developing arm issues, managing elbow tendinopathy or tennis elbow, or simply looking to reduce string-related physical wear during long competitive seasons where cumulative string impact adds up across many hours of hitting.
• Suitable for Full Bed or Hybrid Use - ALU Power Soft works effectively as a full-bed setup for players who need maximum comfort from every string, and as a cross string in hybrid configurations where natural gut or a multifilament main provides feel while Soft crosses add directional stability and co-poly control without introducing excessive cross-string hardness.
• Tension Maintenance Across Sessions - The co-poly monofilament construction maintains string bed stiffness better than natural gut or synthetic alternatives, keeping the string bed's feel and control character stable across multiple matches and training sessions before tension loss requires a restring.
