Where to buy
What players say
Ultra Cable is a shaped co-polyester built for spin and control, and Tennis Warehouse's playtest and most customer reviews back that up with high marks for both. The main trade-offs are low power and a firm, stiff feel, and some users report quick tension loss even though the official durability score is high.
Best for
- Big hitters with long, full swings
- Players chasing max spin and control
- Players who already use stiff pollys
Pros
- Very high spin and control scores in Tennis Warehouse's playtest (95/95)
- Above-average comfort for a shaped poly, per multiple customer reviews
- Several long-term users report it holds tension well and even plays better as it ages
- Sharp square profile gives strong bite on the ball
Cons
- Low power (54/100 in the TW playtest) so it suits players who generate their own pace
- Mixed reports on tension maintenance: TW calls it average, and some buyers report losing tension after one session
- Firm/stiff feel that TW and buyers say is not for beginners or compact strokes
