There are hundreds of string options available for tennis players. But as a player, all that matters is which strings are the best for YOU.

Here is some general information about the playing characteristics of the most used string types:

SOLID CORE SYNTHETIC

Generally these are all-around performance strings that provide a good combination of feel, power, durability, and value.

MULTIFILAMENT SYNTHETIC

The core of these strings can be comprised of a few, hundreds, or thousands of fibers. Multifilament strings provide feel, comfort, and power. They are also very forgiving and are great for players with arm issues. If you hit hard and use a lot of spin, durability will be an issue. You definitely would want to use a thicker gauge.

POLYESTER

Durable, spin enhancing, and control oriented, polyester strings are a good option for hard hitting string breakers. But be aware, polyester strings are generally VERY stiff and can be hard on your arm. They also loose tension quickly. Many people make the mistake of playing with polyester strings until they break. Once they go “dead” your arm is absorbing much more shock than it should. Combining them with a softer more forgiving cross string can be a good solution.

KEVLAR

VERY durable and spin enhancing, Kevlar is a very underrated string type. It addition to not breaking quickly, Kevlar holds tension very well. And because of its’ rough texture due to braided construction, It is as spin enhancing as many polyester strings. Kevlar strings up VERY tightly. Because of this we string it at much lower tensions than most players expect. Kevlar MUST be used in a hybrid combination with a softer more for giving string. We have had great success using Kevlar Hybrids for extreme string breakers.

NATURAL GUT

Until the mid 70's natural gut was the most widely used string by far. For ATP and WTA players that was still the case into the early 2000's.Made from cow intestines, natural gut provides unmatched feel, power, and arm protection. No matter what it says on the packaging, no other string feels like natural gut. Strung correctly it also holds tension longer than all other string types. Due to it's long, intricate manufacturing process, it is by far the most expensive type of tennis string. If you're not a chronic string breaker you absolutely should try natural gut.


HYBRID STRINGING

Combining a durable control and spin enhancing string with a powerful arm friendly is a very effective and popular option. It can provide chronic string breakers a softer more forgiving string bed. And it can provide more durability for string breakers who don't want a stiff string bed.

Some strings are in a category all to themselves. These strings provide surprising combinations of power, feel, spin, and durability in one string!
