Comments: This is the best string I have ever used. I use the Aero Pro, and with a new set strung at 56 lbs my service ace percentage goes up dramatically. The only issue is I get about two matches out of it before I need to restring to get the optimum pop on the ball.

Comments: Strung this 18g up in the whole bed of my Pure Storm Ltd. It's been awesome. You get the durability of a full poly bed, and the playability of the thin gauge.

Comments: I've experimented with many strings in the past 18 months. I have had arm issues several times this year. This is the best string on the market. Now, I've only played one match with it. I'm a 3.5. I serve hard, but don't return that hard. I was skeptical of 18 gauge breaking. Not the case so far. I have Wilson BLX Juice 100. 18 g strung on mains and Gamma Playability 16 g on crosses. Crisp shots, comfortable and power is high. I think I've finally found what I've been looking for. I ill never go back to 16 g again on mains.

Comments: I've tried many different strings in the past 12 months, and I keep coming back to RPM Blast. It's by far the best string I have hit with. Great feel, superb power and spin and durability. I don't think I will be changing to any other string for a while! Strung the 18g @ 57lbs in a Babolat Aero Pro Team.

Comments: Have only used this as part of a hybrid job: RPM 18 on the crosses at 48 pounds and VS gut 17 on the mains at 52 pounds. Very very nice combination. My all-time favorite. Tried same setup once with RPM 17 and it was not nearly as nice. I was surprised at the difference. The polyester lasts a long time; many times longer than the gut of course.

Comments: This is a great string. I just got it for my Babolat AeroPro Drive GT. This is the best string with lots of pop and nice topspin. I strung mine at 57 lbs and after 30 hours it still has not broken. A very thin string that is expensive but worth it. I found it way better than Babolat Pro Hurricane.

Comments: Comfortable and great pocketing for a poly. Also for an 18 gauge it is quite durable. I broke my mains after about 20 hours, and it was actually a bit of a mis-hit that broke it. Impressive control, precision and feel. I've played with Tecnifibre Black 17, Luxilon ALU Power 16, hybrids with both of those poly's. Babolat RPM 18 has the best feel, spin, control and pop. Truly is the total package if you have a fairly developed stroke and not too prone to arm troubles. The 18 gauge does help if you are borderline with arm problems when using poly's. I had elbow and shoulder issues with other string configurations mentioned and have had shoulder surgery, but after a couple of months with this so far no issues. I can't play multi's or synthetic gut, as I break either in about 4-6 hours of play.

Comments: Great string! It performs better with lower tensions, such as 52-54 lbs.

Comments: Babolat RPM Blast is a great string just not in the 18 gauge version. I really enjoy hitting with RPM Blast so I thought I'd try out the 18 gauge version. Bad idea. I'm really not a player who breaks strings very often but I broke these after around 4.5 hours of play time (it usually takes a full 15+ hours for me to break most strings). I actually strung this in the mains at 55 lbs with Wilson NXT Tour 18 in the crosses also at 55 lbs. Naturally I though the NXT would break since it has a reputation of short life span but that wasn't the case. This was actually an excellent combination for a player that is seeking a nice blend of power, feel, and control. However, it would be very wise to try the 16 or 17 gauge of RPM Blast as I'm sure they will last much longer. Best string combination I have ever tried was Luxilon Alu Power 16L mains with Babolat Natural Gut 16 in the crosses (natural gut is just too expensive). For those who are wondering I strung this on my Babolat Pure Drive Roddick GT+, which I would strongly recommend to take out for a demo!!!

Comments: I strung it at 52lbs on a Volkl PB 10 Mid. Love the strings. There's great feel, control and power. I can hit out with lots of power, but balls still drop in. I hit some nice dipping passing shots, too. It has less ball pocketing and not as comfortable as Klip Screamer, but the enhanced control more than makes up for it.
