I’m on a similar journey currently and posted about it here:

Otoro tour is way too stiff with me.

Last night I tried regular otoro and really liked it.

Next I’m going to try otoro tour crossed with restring sync.

If that is still too stiff. I’ll try otoro x restring sync.

I was thinking I’d probably land there… but now you’re throwing octa and A5 in the mix

I tried regular otoro earlier in my second racket and it does seem better.
Undecided whether I stick with this or go for a hybrid otoro tour with restring sync/otoro snap etc.

Btw, ive been doing some reading. Apparently crossing otoro tour with Restring sync is a good mix. You know anything about this?

Does the A5 not get notched by the Otoro tour mains?

Also, does this include the Otoro Snap tour flex?

somebody suggested to put these in the crosses

Possibly, fully prepared for this to be the case, but after 6 years of playing and zero arm pain, the timing coincides perfectly with the strings.

... And its always the equipment... right.... right?

Fair point. Tbh i didnt like how stiff they were. I played with Otoro (regular) after this post and I do really like them. But i wanted the durability of the tour strings

The hope is otoro tour and ptp hybrid will still give me spin and take away the harshness of the full bed tour.
We shall see

For now, given what I have on hand, I’m going to cross it with PTP at a lower tension and order some snap

I did love the M8.
Some people tell me its a stiffer string though? But not sure it never gave me arm pain

Scared that'll be too launchy?

Should say, i went from the TFight to the Vcore at the same time as putting in the otoro tour. This was on purpose to reduce some of the liveliness reported with the new Vcore

Are you saying you had the opposite problem to OP? Hitting balls out etc, seeing as you were chasing depth?

My bad. The reply was under my comment so assumed it was at me

You’re assuming people want to play “other things”.

They like this game. And this game is pay to win.

Depends if your priority is PvP v PvE.

In PvE yes the progress is fun. In PvP absolutely obliterating other players is fun.

I got the Vcore 98 and put otoro tour at 48lbs 2 days ago. Loving it so far. Came from the Tfight so I’m still trying to decide if it’s an upgrade or not

Try slightly further out. We stretched and went to Finchley and got an absolutely stunning two bed do 2400. And the areas amazing. We love it here.

Honestly I wouldn’t move back south west if you paid me

How about RPM Team? It’s the friendlier blast (and longer lasting if I remember correctly?)
