This is a more critical review of ReString Sync than the ones I've come across so far, but I must emphasize that this is not a negative review.
I was not expecting Sync to play so similarly to Zero, and I think that took me by surprise. I'm left wondering if there's any purpose to playing it in a full bed.
I know Sync has been compared with Alu Power, but I have only played with it once and it was a long time ago.
I'm not sure my memory can be relied upon here, but Sync did not feel like Alu Power to me. Alu Power has a lot more 'feel', aka vibrations that come through the tennis racket and into your arm.
Also, inevitably someone will ask about a comparison with Toroline strings. I've only hit with K-Pop for 10-15 mins, and I did not like it because it felt muted and plasticky af.
I would place K-Pop and ReString's offerings into the same bucket in the sense that they do provide a lot of snapback (you can feel it while hitting heavy topspin), and are on the muted side. And this means that I wouldn't play with them.
Unfortunately I can't comment on K-Pop's tension maintenance seeing that I only hit with that setup for 10-15 mins.
This brings me to the cliff hanger at the end of the video. There will be a follow-up to this which will focus on exploring hybrid setups with Sync. I'm quite excited for these upcoming videos!
