BABOLAT Pro Hurricane - $27
Babolat Pro Hurricane is a firm and durable co-poly with remarkable control
and spin. In order to improve the feel and comfort, Babolat utilizes a soften-
ing agent called Xtrem Futur Polymer. With its ultra predictable and low-
powered response, Pro Hurricane enables the player to attack the ball with
full force when going for extra pace and spin. Intermediate and advanced
players in search of control, spin and durability should give this co-poly a
serious look.
Type: Poly
Gauge: 16, 17, 18
Color: Natural
BABOLAT Pro Hurricane Tour - $30
Pro Hurricane Tour is big on control and spin. It's also quite firm, so we think
it works best for intermediate to advanced baseliners with long, fast strokes.
String breakers take note: this one offers excellent durability. The octagonal
profile gives Pro Hurricane Tour great bite, while the coating allows the
strings to snap back with greater force. The result is a heavy ball loaded with
spin, especially for players who swing big. This is a great option for power
baseliners who want the ultimate in spin, control, and durability.
Type: Poly
Gauge: 16, 17
Color: Gold
BABOLAT RPM Blast - $36
The string of choice for Stan Wawrinka, this durable co-poly string is very,
very spin friendly. The slick surface of RPM Blast allows the main strings to
slide out of alignment, grab the ball and then snap back to add spin to the
shot. While all co-poly monofilaments do this to some extent, our lab tests
confirm that RPM Blast is exceptional in this regard. Though RPM Blast offers
a slightly softer feel than traditional polyesters, it is by no means the softest
co-poly available. It is an ideal choice for big hitters with heavier racquets
seeking maximum control, durability, and spin. (And it seems to be working
quite well for Rafa!)
Type: Poly
Gauge: 15L, 16, 17, 18
