The Luxilon Element Bronze is the benchmark for comfort within the Luxilon polyester family. Utilizing proprietary Multi-Mono technology, it is engineered to be 30% softer than the industry-standard ALU Power and 19% softer than ALU Power Soft. This "Bronze" edition features a sophisticated metallic copper/brown aesthetic, making it a perfect visual match for earth-toned frames or classic racquet designs.
Performance Profile
- Arm-Friendly Response: Element is widely considered the most comfortable polyester Luxilon produces. The Multi-Mono construction involves multiple fibers integrated into a polymer matrix, allowing the string to flex more like a multifilament while maintaining polyester's durability.
- Enhanced Ball Pocketing: Because the string is more supple, the ball "sinks" deeper into the string bed upon impact. This results in exceptional feel and a longer dwell time, giving you superior feedback for touch shots and volleys.
- Livelier Power: Unlike "dead" control strings like Luxilon 4G, Element provides a noticeable amount of "free power." It’s a livelier co-poly that helps players find depth even when they aren't swinging at 100% capacity.
- Consistent Control: Despite the added softness, it maintains the predictable launch angle and directional control that competitive players expect from the Luxilon brand.
Best Suited For
- Players with Arm Sensitivity: The primary choice for competitive players who have experienced "tennis elbow" or shoulder issues but don't want to switch to a fragile multifilament.
- Transitioning Juniors: Ideal for young players moving from synthetic gut to their first full bed of polyester, as it provides a more forgiving entry point.
- Intermediate to Advanced All-Court Players: Those who value a mix of baseline spin and net-side feel.
- Hybrid Cross-Strings: Often used in the "crosses" to soften up a stiff "main" string (like ALU Power or 4G) without sacrificing the overall spin potential of the setup.
