Live Wire
Wow, these Irukandji crossed with natural gut in the mains are a live wire. Not only lively, but powerful and soft. They have exceptional feel delivering excellent topspin, slice and serve pop. I also really enjoy volleying with the Irukandji. I currently have Irukandji in my Pure Strike’s (16 x18 with added weight/322 swing weight) strung with natural gut in mains at 56 lbs and Irukandji at 53 lbs in crosses.
I’m very impressed with Grapplesnake strings and I’ve been winning a lot lately with them 😎.

Awesome cross string!
The string is slick and allows the mains to move freely. The snapback is excellent. I strung this with Alpha in the mains and Iru in the crosses. This made my Speed Pro's stringbed more lively and added needed power!
