$9.99
With G-Spin 3 , Gosen delivers shaped co-poly to intermediate and advanced players. With its low-power level, this string will enable you to attack the ball with your most powerful strokes. It also comes with six sharp edges for extra bite and easier access to spin. All in all, this co-poly has a rare blend of durability and comfort, making it a great option for the player who wants a more arm-friendly control string. At $10, this one takes a bite out of the ball not your wallet.

Where to buy
What players say
Players who buy this co-poly mostly compare it to Volkl Cyclone or Solinco Hyper-G Soft, but softer on the arm. The common trade-off is that comfort and spin come with lower power, and a few found the feel too soft on serves and volleys.

- Baseliners who grind from the back

Comfort, control, spin, and pocketing outstanding. Power was on the lower side at 58 lbs.
