    I will love to try this out. BG80 is my favourite string so I really hope this adds a bit more. I'm also loving the orange colour!

    Kindest regards,

    THis string will be available in UK however it will be January or March. My guess is it will arrive for All Englands in March 2012.

    It's a brilliant string and so much better than BG80.

    Mine's on its way - time for a side-by-side test with the old version: same tension, same racket. I have a prediction, but I hope I'm wrong:).

    i heard the orange color is more popular and going fast. get them while it is still hot. ;)

    but wait. technically, isn't white hot hotter than orange hot?

    Mark, which color did you get? White or orange? Because I'm curious if there would be any difference in the color of the string as well. IIRC some people said the BG80 yellow were "grippier" than the other colors...

    I got the orange; my BG80 "old" is yellow, so the colours were never going to match either way. You're right about colours affecting texture, though, and it's not just BG80.

    I do hope the retailers haven't filled their boots with white - how could YY think orange wasn't going to destroy it in the colour war?!
