The Penta Power is a little stiffer than our other softer co-polys but surprisingly a very comfortable strings with tons of control. This string provides the perfect balance of power, spin, control, feel and very durable. Thus, if you are a player looking for a slightly stiffer co-poly and with all the qualities of a perfect string, then the Penta Power is for you.
Pentapower can also be used as a hybrid with any of the Protour strings.

Nevermind that the color scheme of the Terracotta blends wonderfully with my Radical Pro, but the amount of control and precision I get with this 5-sided poly is fantastic. It is not the softest poly in the YTEX lineup, but I almost prefer the pop I get from this string. It plays similarly to the ProTour as far as feel of the ball coming off the racquet, but add the bonus power and spin. The only thing I think ProTour has the edge on PentaPower is the tension maintenance. Protour definitely has the edge there. I tend to restring my sticks every 2-3 weeks anyway so that has not been an issue for me. So if you want an all-around high performance shaped poly, I can not say enough good things about PentaPower. RIP the Terracotta variant.
I always look for extra spin from strings and the Penta strings do the job !!!
We've been using the YTEX twist crossed with Square-X hybrid setup around 3 months now. Love the strings, Love Winning
Very durable
I am very impressed on many levels, just got an identical order from the one you mentioned. I will promote YTEX in my mobile stringing service everyday. Ivor Savage knows I mean business.
This string is really spot and its textures provide lots of spin on all of your shots!
Nice Spin/Control....we believe the control on this string is on par with Hex but a little less power. We picked 3 reels :)
Nice spin , soft on the arm .
Good control
Great price
This string is soft enough for me to use at 48 pounds, full bed. I started at 45, went up to 48 and now in between at 46.5 pounds. I think the 46.5 is right for me. I get excellent power and control. I use the Wilson Clash 100L racquets.
I play test all strings in my Wilson Pro Staff 97 CV at 55lbs. This string did not disappoint. I was surprised on how comfortable the strings felt when hitting with it versus how the string actually felt to the touch when stringing. I was expecting some tennis elbow because of how stiff the string felt. It wasn't an extreme stiffness but it was noticeable compared to other soft co-polys. Besides the string being comfortable, I was even more surprised on how each shot selection was being executed with ease. At the net and at the baseline, where I wanted the ball to go, it will go. I didn't have to adjust hardly at all. There wasn't a period of time where I needed to get use to how the strings played. Spin is about a 7/10. Power is about a 7/10. On serves, I had enough power when I needed it and enough spin when I differed to it instead. If this were my primary string, I would keep it at the same tension (55lbs).
