Solinco Hyper-G is a high performance co-polyester string designed to offer playability and control while generating intense spin and bite. It’s our top selling poly. Developed for an ATP top 50 player, this medium firm string enables big hitters to take massive cuts at the ball without having to worry about overhitting. Topspin players who like hitting balls that dive sharply and explode off the court will love this string.

Solinco Tour Bite has been a poly favorite especially for advanced players. This versatile co-polyester string is designed to offer playability and control while generating power and intense spin and bite. Similar to Hyper-G, this square shaped string enables big hitters to take massive cuts at the ball without having to worry about overhitting. Tour Bite plays a little more stiff than Hyper-G giving you a bit more power.
Solinco MACH-10Price: $40
Color: Light Blue
Solinco MACH-10 is a next-generation co-polyester string designed to deliver explosive power, exceptional feel, and long-lasting playability.

Solinco Confidential Soft Pink is a high-performance co-polyester string that delivers the control and spin of the original Confidential with a softer, more comfortable feel. Solinco’s proprietary softening formula provides enhanced ball pocketing and a plush response while maintaining plenty of bite on aggressive swings. Excellent tension maintenance keeps the string bed feeling consistent longer, while the bold Electric Pink color stands out on the court. A great choice for players seeking a softer polyester without sacrificing control and spin.
RPM HurricanePrice: $42
Color: Natural/Yellow
RPM Hurricane (formerly called Pro Hurricane Tour) is big on control and spin. This monofilament polyester is a firm string, so we think it’s best for intermediate to advanced baseline players with long, fast strokes. This is a good lower cost poly option for power baseliners who want the ultimate control, more spin, and durability.

Price: $46
Color: Black
RPM Blast is a monofilament polyester. It’s a relatively firm string, so we recommend it for intermediate to advanced baseline players with long, fast strokes. The octagonal profile gives you grip on the ball to create more topspin. It’s a bit softer than RPM Hurricane. This is a good option for power baseliners who want the ultimate in spin, control, and durability.

Price: $40
Color: Silver/Natural
Solinco Hybrid Tour Bite + Vanquish is our most popular hybrid string set. Solinco Tour Bite is a polyester for power and spin, and typically strung in the main strings. Solinco Vanquish is a superior, arm-friendly multifilament for touch and control, typically strung in the crosses. If you’ve been thinking about trying a hybrid, this a great pick!
Babolat HybridPrice: $48
Color: Natural/Grey
Babolat Hybrid RPM Blast 17 + RPM Soft 16 is a great choice where you gain the benefits of both a poly and a soft monofilament synthetic. Gain extra spin and durability from the RPM Blast (a poly) in the mains, while RPM Soft in the crosses gives you great feel and more comfort. The RPM Soft is more durable than a multifilament but softer than a poly.

String has a big impact on your tennis game—probably more than you think. Choosing the right string, string gauge and string tension impacts everything from the power you experience, the control you have, the amount of “grab” you have on the ball to create spin and how long a string will last. It also impacts the amount of vibration on your arm and elbow. If you want to improve your game, you should try different strings from time to time to see which one helps you play your best. We’re happy to talk about different strings and help you choose the best string for your game!
It mostly depends on how much you play. Generally, you should string your racquet at least once a year. Strings lose tension over time and the more you play. Some strings, depending on their composition, also wear out similar to running shoes and tennis shoes. So if you play more often, you should string more often.
Tennis string gauges range from 15 (thicker) to 19 (thinner). Thinner strings offer improved playability while thicker strings provide more durability. Thinner strings also provide more spin potential by allowing the strings to dig deeper into the ball. The most common gauges are 16, 16L and 17. Some strings will include the gauge in their name (e.g. 125 which means 1.25mm and is a 16L gauge).
If you’re playing with a 16 gauge string currently and don’t break strings often, we suggest trying a 16L or 17 gauge string to gain more feel and playability.
String Gauges (measured in diameter):
16 = 1.26-1.33mm
16L = 1.22-1.26mm
17 = 1.20-1.24mm
All racquet manufacturers provide a recommended string tension for each racquet model (we have these!). Usually a range is provided (e.g. 55-65 pounds). If you’re unsure of your preferred tension, it’s best to start in the middle of the manufacturer provided range and see how they feel and play. You can then adjust the tension the next time you have your racquet restrung. Remember—a lower tension will give you more power, while a higher tension will give you more control.
Yes, we typically recommend dropping the tension by 2-4 pounds when using a poly string.
