Description;

If you want to WIN, you need to use SPIN. The RPM Rough tennis string gives you great spin. You can actually feel the string texture. And the texture gives every stroke more bite. No wonder this string is used by the world's best players, including Félix Auger-Aliassime. Made in France.

Your racquet's strings are its driving force. In fact, they account for half its performance. In other words, you need to choose carefully. We invented tennis strings in 1875. Since then, we've been coming up with innovations to help you play your best game and have ever more fun on the court.

From 01/07 onwards, you may receive the old or new packaging at random, while inventories of the old packaging last. The product remains identical regardless of the packaging.

What string should I use?

Polyester gives control, spin and durability, and suits players who swing fast and break strings. Multifilament is softer and more comfortable, which suits players with arm problems or slower swings. A hybrid, polyester in one direction and multifilament in the other, is a common compromise.

Does string gauge matter?

Yes. Thinner strings bite the ball for more spin and feel, but break sooner. Thicker strings last longer and play a little duller. Gauge is measured so that a higher number is thinner, which catches people out.

What tension should I string at?

Lower tension gives more power and comfort, higher tension gives more control. Every frame has a recommended range printed on it, and starting in the middle of that range is sensible. If you are getting arm pain, drop the tension before changing anything else.

My strings have not broken, do I still need a restring?

Almost certainly. Strings lose tension from the day they are fitted, so a racket strung two years ago plays nothing like it did. The old rule is to restring as many times per year as you play per week.
