Strings

String jobs that match how rec players actually hit — spin, pocketing, and tension maintenance — not the 50-pound full-poly a touring 5.5 can survive.

BabolatStrings

Babolat Touch VS Natural Gut 16 / 1.30

$65

The gold-standard natural gut—TW-perfect power and comfort scores, legendary feel and tension hold—$65/set or $35 half-set for the hybrid mains Court List was missing next to ALU / RPM / Hyper-G.

TecnifibreStrings

Tecnifibre Triax 16 / 1.33

$22

The French multi-poly fusion that sits between soft multis and firm co-polys—crisper aim and better snapback than NXT/X-One, still arm-friendlier than ALU, with the usual multi fray tax at a premium set price.

YonexStrings

Yonex Poly Tour Pro 1.25 (16L)

$23

The softer round co-poly club players reach for when ALU Power feels too firm—low-powered control, above-average poly comfort, and honest spin without a shaped profile.

TecnifibreStrings

Tecnifibre X-One Biphase 16 / 1.30

$23

The classic French soft multi opposite Wilson NXT—plush pocketing, easy depth, and crisp-not-mush feel, with the usual premium multi tax of fray and short playability windows.

WilsonStrings

Wilson NXT 16 / 1.30

$24

Wilson’s classic club multifilament—plush pocketing and easy depth in the soft-string lane, with the usual multi tax of fray and tension fade at a premium set price.

BabolatStrings

Babolat RPM Blast 17/1.25

$22

The classic black octagon that made shaped poly famous—heavy spin and firm control if you already swing big; stiff, not free power, and not Rafa’s exact 15L bed.

LuxilonStrings

Luxilon ALU Power 125 (16L / 1.25)

$21.50

The silver co-poly that defined modern control stringing—firm, precise, and still the tour benchmark if you swing hard and restring often.

SolincoStrings

Solinco Hyper-G 16L

$12–$16 / set

A shaped poly that still bites after a couple of weeks — if you do not copy a tour tension.
