Babolat RPM Blast FAQ's

1. What type of string is Babolat RPM Blast?

Babolat RPM Blast is a polyester monofilament string. It’s known for its octagonal profile, which enhances spin, as well as its firm feel, making it a popular choice for advanced players who seek control and durability.

2. Who should use Babolat RPM Blast?

RPM Blast is best suited for intermediate to advanced players who have fast, powerful swings and are looking to generate more spin and maintain control. It’s especially well-suited for aggressive baseliners who need a string that supports spin and precision.

3. What are the benefits of Babolat RPM Blast?

The key benefits of Babolat RPM Blast include its exceptional spin potential due to the octagonal shape, high durability, and excellent control. The string provides a firm, crisp response, helping players take full swings without the risk of losing control.

4. How does Babolat RPM Blast compare to other polyester strings?

RPM Blast offers a great combination of spin, control, and durability compared to other polyester strings. It feels slightly softer than traditional polys, thanks to its special silicone coating. Compared to strings like Kirschbaum Pro Line II, RPM Blast offers more spin and a bit more control but can feel a bit stiffer.

5. Is RPM Blast comfortable to use?

As a polyester string, RPM Blast tends to be stiffer and may not be the most comfortable for players with arm or shoulder issues. However, many players appreciate its balanced firmness, and using it in a hybrid setup with a softer string can help improve comfort.

6. What tensions work best for RPM Blast?

Typically, players string Babolat RPM Blast between 22 kg (48 lbs) and 26 kg (57 lbs). A lower tension provides more power and comfort, while a higher tension increases control and precision. The ideal tension will depend on your playing style and comfort preferences.

7. How long does RPM Blast last before needing replacement?

RPM Blast is a durable string, and depending on your playing frequency and style, it can last between 10 to 20 hours of play. However, as with most polyester strings, it will eventually lose tension and playability, so many players prefer to restring every few weeks to maintain performance.

8. Does RPM Blast help with spin?

Yes, RPM Blast is specifically designed to enhance spin. Its octagonal profile, combined with a silicone coating, allows the strings to grip the ball effectively, helping players produce more topspin or slice. This makes it an excellent choice for players who rely heavily on spin to control rallies.

9. What makes Babolat RPM Blast popular among professional players?

Babolat RPM Blast is popular among professional players, like Carlos Alcaraz, due to its ability to generate massive spin and provide excellent control, allowing for precise and aggressive shot-making. Its durability also makes it ideal for the high-impact, high-speed game at the professional level.

10. Is there a softer version of Babolat RPM Blast?

Yes, Babolat also offers RPM Blast Soft, which is a slightly softer version of the original RPM Blast. It retains many of the same characteristics, such as spin potential and control, but is easier on the arm, making it a more comfortable choice for players who still want the benefits of a polyester string without the harshness.
