I could visually see the tennis ball dip and make contact with the tennis court and then kick up much higher than the original ball trajectory. More impressive was how the balls were reacting after the bounce. With each ball that I hit, I could see that my topspin forehands were dipping hard and fast. Weiss Cannon Ultra Cable delivers the spin it promises. It’s one thing to say “I can feel the ball coming off the strings with spin” and another to actually see what kind of spin a tennis can produce. Just how much spin are we talking with Weiss Cannon Ultra Cable? Funny thing is, after each forehand or backhand, there was a noticeable amount of ball felt in the air, more than any other tennis string I’ve used. The spin is out of this world! I cannot believe how much ball bite I was getting from the string I could literally feel the tennis ball dwelling in the strings then getting catapulted/propelled off of the strings with massive amounts of spin. Now, here’s where the Weiss Cannon Ultra Cable really outshines the rest of the “spin strings” on the market. I didn’t have to overswing to get power from the string, I just had to smooth it all out and commit to each stroke. I found this string to be particularly medium powered, even though Tennis-Warehouse and StringForum have the string rated pretty low in the power department.


The Weiss Cannon Ultra Cable was definitely firm, but not to the point that I was feeling any sort of tenderness in my arm in fact, I quite enjoyed the firm response from the stringbed. Holy mother of tennis balls! This string is something else. First Impressions Weiss Cannon Ultra Cable Needless to say, I was going to go out there and give it a go. The stringbed did feel pretty firm and was worried that I had strung too tight. I went with a tension of 44lbs (20kg), which is right around the range I normally string my racquets. The firmness of the string allowed for easy installation in the mains but when it came to weaving the crosses, the lack of flex in the string made it for some tough passing through each main. The tennis string is very firm and because of those sharp edges, my fingertips suffered tremendously. Installing this string into my Yonex Duel G 97 was no walk in the park. These sharp edges are one of the main reasons why Weiss Cannon Ultra Cable produces so much spin.
#GUTS AND GLORY TENNIS PRO#
The Weiss Cannon Ultra Cable comes in a neon yellow color that looks similar to Yonex Poly Tour Pro but instead of the traditional round poly, it is square in shape and has some very sharp edges. Little did I know, this tennis string was going to be the spinniest ( is that even a word?) poly I’ve ever played with. I was first introduced to Weiss Cannon Ultra Cable, by my friends over at Guts & Glory Tennis, I was certain it was just another polyester tennis string coming to market.
