Overview

Introducing Prince Lightning Pro! This premium synthetic gut builds on the success of Lightning XX by adding a slightly more responsive central core. It also has a unique outer wrap that includes multifilament bundles for extra comfort. Like previous generations of Lightning, this string has Powerfoil Technology, which consists of thin PET (polyester) ribbons. According to our Tennis Warehouse University lab data, this is one of the softest synthetic gut strings at Tennis Warehouse, making it an obvious choice for any player who wants easy access to power coupled with arm-friendly comfort.

 

Try this 17 gauge version for slightly more spin but less durability than the 16 gauge version

 

  • Gauge: 17/1.25mm
  • Length: 40ft/12.2m
  • Composition: Co-extruded multi-section core with a multifilament wrap and PET ribbons
  • Color: Silver, Black

Model Number: 7J9590XXX

Offering a tad more spin-potential than the 16g version, this is a great option for those who want a value string that doesn't skimp on power or comfort.

Prince Lightning ProLightning Pro 17 is my "go to" synthetic string that I recommend to most of my clientele. It's an excellent string for all player levels. From beginner to intermediate, it works well as a full-bed setup. From intermediate to advanced, it can be used in a hybrid setup, either as the mains or crosses. These strings provide a nice firm comfortable feel and tension maintenance. The spin potential ranks among the best in its class!

Comments: Perfect balance for feel, power and control whether in front or back court. I played 6 games tonight with purple racquetballs and the balls just fly without any discomfort or twisting of the racquet. Shots are more powerful when on sweet spot. Explosive touch shots or soft taps into corner, there was no problem. Cannot complain given it is cheaper than other types of mono gut with multifilament wrapped around it. Great price!

Awesome string when you're starting to experiment with string types and brands. Put this on my HEAD RADICAL EDGE 175 with the HEAD vibration dampener attached to only the center 6 main strings and a full roll of HEAD XTREME SPORT wrap on top of the OEM wrap as a second layer. Strung at 33 lbs.
