BABOLAT RPM Soft

RPM Soft is significantly more comfortable than standard polyester strings. While it maintains the durability players expect, its polyamide construction is designed to be much softer on the arm, reducing vibration and shock on impact.

Yes, it is an excellent option for frequent string breakers. The three-layer construction, which includes an aramid powder layer, is specifically engineered to offer better durability than standard multifilament strings while still providing a plush feel.

This string is ideal for intermediate to advanced players who want the durability and control of a polyester string but find traditional polys too stiff or harsh on their arm. It bridges the gap between the longevity of a monofilament and the comfort of a multifilament.

You should string this between 48 and 62 pounds (22kg to 28kg). Because of its unique polyamide composition, staying within this range will help you get the best balance of power and control without compromising the string's integrity.

While it is not a shaped string designed specifically for maximum bite, the solid core and silicone outer layer allow for good snap-back, which helps generate spin. If your primary goal is heavy topspin, you might prefer a shaped polyester, but this string offers a great blend of spin and comfort.
