Solinco Tour Bite String

While traditional polyester strings are often stiff and harsh on the arm, the Tour Bite uses a specialized co-polyester monofilament construction. This results in a noticeably softer feel and increased comfort without sacrificing the control and spin that polyester players demand.

Because it is designed with a softer composition and lower stiffness level, it is more forgiving than many traditional polyester strings. However, if you have a history of arm issues, it is still a polyester string, so you may want to consider a hybrid setup with a softer multifilament cross string to further reduce impact.

The shaped profile is designed to bite into the ball for spin, which can create more friction against your grommets than a smooth, round string. While it is standard for shaped strings to cause slightly faster wear, it is well within the acceptable range for regular play.

This string is best for intermediate to advanced players who have fast, aggressive swing speeds and want to maximize spin. It rewards players who take full cuts at the ball by providing the precision and bite needed to keep heavy shots inside the lines.

The 1.3 mm gauge is a standard thickness that offers a balanced blend of durability and feel. It is thick enough to hold up against heavy topspin hitting, yet thin enough to maintain the responsive, soft feedback that defines this string's character.
