What players say
Weiss CANNON Ultra Cable is a shaped co-poly with sharp edges that reviewers and most customers rate highly for spin and control. Tennis Warehouse's playtest scored it 93 overall, with spin and control at 95 each and power low at 54. Customer opinion splits a bit: most praise its spin, control, and durability, but a minority call it too stiff, low on feel, or prone to losing tension quickly.
Best for
- Big hitters with long, fast swings
- Players chasing spin and control over power
- Advanced and intermediate poly users

Pros
- High spin and control scores from the square profile with sharp edges
- Many players report it lasts a long time before breaking

Cons
- Low power output, a poor fit for players who need the string to generate pace
- Stiff feel that beginners or players with compact strokes may find harsh
- Average tension maintenance; some players notice control and spin fade after two to three weeks
