Babolat RPM Blast string review

9th Jun 2010

What is it and who should use it?

Why all the hype??? Rafa uses it!!! Here's what Racquet Sports Industry Magazine says...RPM Blast (Revolutions Per Minute) is a monofilament string that gives players more spin, more power and a unique feel at ball impact. “With this new string, I have more spin, and it helps me hit deeper. We have worked hard with Babolat,” explains Rafael Nadal. Read the full article at RSI.com

We're getting bombarded with inquiries about this string. Our advice...this string is not for everyone! It should be used only by those accomplished tennis players who seek maximum control and who hit consistently with topspin form (no this string is not going to increase ball spin if you don't know how to hit with spin in the first place). Keep in mind that this string is Polyester, therefore in general it is not going to help you hit with power, is very stiff and not very comfortable on the arm.

Still want it? Get RPM Blast here, or bring your racquet in for us to string so you can try it for yourself.
