Ashaway's proprietary manufacturing process combines three thousand microfilaments into one highly oriented core. The core is encapsulated in a densely braided micro-filament wear layer that is bound and coated with a polymer resin for extended string life and easy stringing. This unique construction prevents shifting and tension loss even when strung at tournament tensions, making MicroPower XL an ideal choice for top professional and advanced amateur players.

This new, 21 Light (.73 mm) tournament gauge string from Ashaway offers exceptional power and durability while measuring 10% thinner than standard models. MicroPower XL's streamlined design causes less wind resistance, allowing the shuttle to be hit harder and faster, and provides more power by amplifying the "trampoline effect."
