The \u003cstrong\u003eRPM Blast 17\u003c\/strong\u003e is typically used in the mains for its control and spin generation characteristics, while the new \u003cstrong\u003eVS Touch BT7\u003c\/strong\u003e provides incredible feel and helps to soften the stringbed. The natural gut features the newest coating technology, which increases longevity by 15% and durability up to 25%. This slightly thicker coating helps to slow the fraying process typical of softer strings when used in the crosses with polyester, increasing the overall durability without significantly stiffening the feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Co-polyester Monofilament + Multifilament Natural Gut\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black \/ Natural\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGauge\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17 G 1.25mm (RPM) (black) + 16 G 1.30mm (VS) (natural)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e-Snap back for spin\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e-SPE coating for slick sliding string interaction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e-Power and Feel\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e-For a softer feel use the gut in the main strings\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Babolat","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49827661611323,"sku":"651121","price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0887\/5599\/4939\/files\/B281040-105-1.webp?v=1769457003"},{"product_id":"rpm-team-tennis-string-black","title":"RPM Team Tennis String Black","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.tennisexpress.com\/babolat-tennis-strings\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eBabolat's\u003c\/a\u003e RPM Team Tennis String\u003c\/strong\u003e is a blend of what makes polyester great and with some flexibility for comfort.
