BABOLAT RPM Blast Black 16g Strings

The Babolat RPM Blast 16 is the string of choice for Rafael Nadal, and Jo-Wilfreid Tsonga. This string shares the same basic construction and co-polyester composition as the popular Babolat Pro Hurricane Tour, with a few minor tweaks. The RPM Blast stays with the octagonal profile but enhances the spin generation through the use of a new dye and coating. The black color of this string makes it play slightly stiffer than the yellow Pro Hurricane Tour, while the new silicone coating is designed to allow the strings to slide across each other easier. This serves two purposes, the first is that the string can move easily, effectively allowing the stringbed to play as a more open pattern than it is. The second, of course, is to enhance durability by lessening string to string friction. Babolat's RPM Blast is a popular choice among strong baseliners seeking durability and spin to dictate the action.

Construction: Extruded co-polyester monofilament
Color: Black
Gauge: 1.30mm

This monsterous strings!

User: Jimmy Le, Texas

This string got me a lot of spin and really, lots of power. Its durability of a fullbed RPM kind of died pretty quick on me. Now its like a rocket launcher that lost its shape... However, having a Western forehand, its no big deal! I let the RPM do my power while I generate the spin!

RPM Blast Lasts!

User: Joseph Santos, Florida

Best string Ive ever used and it truly lasts. It provides control that I need in my game. Go try it. It will improve your game. It did mine!

Great string!

User: Jackson Norfolk , TX

This is my most favorite string! There are 2 of my favorite ways to use it use it by itself of use it with hybrids stringing! use synthetic string and rpm blast with hybrid stringing!

Amazing string!

User: Kevin Shan, SD

This string is excellent. It gives me a lot more spin AND power. I strung this on a Babolat Aeropro Drive GT racquet at 58 lbs. I recommend this string to anyone.

RPM BLAST BLACK 16G STRINGS

User: Duc Minh Tran, CA

This string can generate a lot of spin. Great quality for such a price.

Great

User: Mitchell Franko, PA

This string is great. If you want string that gives you more feel and pop on the ball this is the string you need. It lets you get more power and spin on the ball. This string also has good durability. Great string. I love it and would recommend it to anybody.

Not good

User: Artem Maksoma, LA

very disappointed....two hours of play and thats it, they turn into the usual bad strings. Will try Topspin Cyber MAX ROTation maybe they will work for me.

favorite strings

User: Max Gallagher, pennsylvania

Im hooked on these strings! i use them on my babolat aeropro drive and they give me access to a huge amount of spin and power. i dont think i would ever use anything else. a little hard on your elbow if you tend to have arm problems but if you do a hybrid mix of these and some synthetic gut it will not bother you at all.

Babolat Pro Blast Strings

User: Glenn Phillips, Florida

Ive used this string for about a year. Long lasting. Good power. Helps with top spin. Good price performer.

Strings that last

User: Paul Brigham, TX

We were going through strings every week or two - these have great durability - are getting a couple of months from these.

Quality, Performance & SERVICE

User: Tamera Hanson, Iowa

Very impressed with the quality, strength and performance of the Babolat RPM Blast string. I also appreciate the top notch service of Tennis Express. My son, a collegiate player in Indiana, needed his favorite string FAST. I contacted Tennis Express and ordered. It went out that day and arrived the next day in time for stringing and team practice.

Good String

User: Jake Peterson, MO

The RPM blast was a very good string for me. I strung it at 55 pounds and the topspin it produces is amazing. I find that I can really swing through the ball and find that it lands in. I would recommend it over pro hurricane tour because of the durability.

Best string ever!!!!!!!!!

User: Carl Johnson, Florida

Im speechless... As soon as i hit my first serve, I was amazed at the way the ball pierced through the air. I will buy this product over and over again!!!

RPM Blast Delivers

User: April, AR

RPM Blast strings deliver great performance and durability. We have used several different types of strings and found that RPM Blast out perform the others.

Great string

User: kelly, ga

I bought this string for my 14 yr old son when I updated his racquets to Babalot. His performance has gone way up and the combination of the string and racquet has helped. Hes getting more power with lots of spin while maintaining control of his shot. Will buy again and again.

Good string while it lasts

User: Joshua , TX

Really liked the string for about two weeks until it broke. Not usually a big string breaker, so i was rather disappointed with the durability of this string. But it did give me some extra spin. Switched back to Luxilon spin.

Nice String!

User: Josh , Texas

Even though this is a power string, the spin with this is really, really great! It gives you very nice control. It also provides a lot of feel and touch. No matter what your game is like, this is a great string!!

Great string

User: Mario, CA

I recently strung my racquet with RPM and I was so surprised with these strings. For one, I can generate more spin than with Luxilon strings. Second, the strings hardly ever move! Since I started using RPM, two of my tennis friends asked me to string their racquets with RPM. Additionally, the feel with theses strings is fantastic if you are a baseliner because you have so much control.

Nice

User: Mike, NJ

I am not a great tennis player but I will say it has improved my game. I am sporatic with good shots and bad ones. It has helped me with the good part of my game. I like it better than gut.

Greatest String Ever!!!

User: Bob, Texas

This string is amazing. It gave me great spin and power. Also it was very comfortable and had lots of great touch. The one downside was that I broke it in 8 days. Still amazing!!!
