Yonex BG66 Ultimax



Just got my racquet restrung with BG66 ultimax, it's a 0.65mm thick string.


Brief review:
I found this string to be excellent. It is a slightly improved version of the BG66.
The repulsion is similar to BG66, not much difference.
Note I'm comparing it to BG66...

Pros
The feel is better given the thinner diameter
The sound when smashing is more crisp
The power is slightly better
Slightly improved BG66

Cons
The string is thinner hence more vibration is absorb by your hand/arm...
The cost of the string is significantly higher than most strings, may not be economical to constantly restring
The durability may yet be an issue given the thinner diameter
