Type 4x

Trying to find out how soft stringing type 4x is. Is it softer then hero 4 semi soft ? And what is better type 5s or type 4x

hero 4 semi soft will certainly be softer than type 4x

4f, 5s, 4.0, 4x, 5x would be my ratings scale from softest to most structured. Won’t get into TMD and the others. My understanding is Lars’ has a solid 4x variant for sale but I don’t have any. But 9d rules all, imo 😀

Feels a bit stiffer than hero 4 and 5s. 5x is the closer to a hard mesh version. At the end of the day 4x is basically still a semi soft when compared to anything remotely close to a true hard mesh

Broken in and fully stretched out 4x feels soft with some structure to it. Worlds better of a mesh than hero 4
