The Head Lynx Transparent Green is a high-performance co-polyester monofilament designed to provide a "lively" and forgiving response for a polyester string. While many co-polys are notoriously stiff and low-powered, the Lynx is engineered with a specialized additive that increases elasticity, making it more accessible to a wider range of players.
The Transparent Green colorway is iconic, originally launched to complement the Head Extreme racquet series, and provides a bold, high-visibility look on the court.
Performance Profile
- Touch and Feel: Unlike "dead" feeling polyesters, Lynx offers exceptional ball pocketing. The added elasticity allows the string bed to "cradle" the ball momentarily, providing better feedback for touch shots, volleys, and lobs.
- Controlled Power: It provides a slightly higher energy return than the stiffer Lynx Tour. This makes it easier to depth on defensive shots while still maintaining the classic control benefits of a monofilament.
- Snap-Back Spin: The smooth surface of the co-polymer allows the strings to slide and snap back into position easily. This movement is essential for generating the topspin needed to bring the ball down quickly at the baseline.
- Improved Comfort: It is one of the softer polyesters in Head’s lineup. It absorbs more impact shock than traditional polyesters, making it a safer choice for players who are prone to arm fatigue or joint soreness.
Best Suited For
- Intermediate to Advanced Players: Ideal for those who have a full, fast swing but want a slightly softer and more "springy" feel than a tour-level polyester.
- Players New to Polyesters: An excellent "bridge" string for those moving away from multifilaments or synthetic gut who want to try a poly without the harsh, stiff sensation.
- Hybrid Setups: Works perfectly in a full bed, but is also a fantastic choice for the mains in a hybrid setup to add spin without sacrificing too much comfort.
- Style-Conscious Hitters: The bright, transparent green aesthetic is perfect for players who want their equipment to stand out.
