Comments: I am a 17 year old high school player, going to state the last 3 years of playing. I first started using Luxilon Savage and I loved it....I didn't think I'd find a better string. Someone suggested that I use Tour Bite's and ever since I changed, I haven't looked back. Tour Bite's give me that excellent pop, but also great control due to the excessive ball bite. I can get my twist serve to kick about 7' high. I recommend Tour Bite to anyone who is looking for a string with good power and spin. This string truly has "out of this world" spin. Ridiculous.

Comments: I'm an average baseline player with heavy forehand spin and slice/flattish backhand.. Strung Tour Bite 16 on Babolat Aero GT Lite at 38/36 pounds mains/crosses. Amazing power and spin. Perfect for my game. Serves has tonnes of kick and I actually swerve the ball mid air. Thats how much spin/power u can generate with these. I tried the 18s(lasted 1 set) and 17s(4hrs) and yes, I'm a serial string breaker even at 38 pounds. So 16s are the only option for me. I honestly give this string a 9/10. Doesn't get full marks coz somehow I just hate the color.

Comments: Tour bite is truly an amazing string that lives up to it's rising reputation as a top-notch, performance polyester. The spin potential is ridiculous, and flat hitters, like myself, should enjoy the ultra crisp sensation the strings give. I'm thoroughly impressed, and will undoubtedly purchase more from Solinco. 5/5

Comments: I switched to this string from a hybrid of Tecnifibre synthetic gut and Babolat RPM Blast because I was breaking them in about 5 hours of play. This string gets tons of bite and spin. It really does bite. It is slowly growing on me, and it lasts. Only problem is because the strings are so square it lacks touch. Overall, great strings!

Comments: This is a good string. I came from the Babolat RPM Blast (because it's too pricey) to this string from a recommendation. When I tried it I loved it's spin. Power felt a little low with me but I think that's from stringing it too tightly for my taste. I crossed it with some synthetic gut.
From: Andy, 8/11

Comments: This string has a really nice balance between power, control, and spin, with nothing really dominating the overall behavior. I have it strung at 55 lbs and it's perfect out of the gates. It's standout advantage compared to other textured polyesters is its playability for a long time, it seems to maintain the roughness/edge of the strings a bit better too. I thought Barbed Wire (16 gauge and 55 lbs as well) had amazingly good slice but was a bit lower powered compared to Bite on topspin and serve. Bite is my favorite string at the moment compared to Black Code, RPM Blast, Hurricane Pro Tour, Hurricane, Spiky Shark, Pro Tornado, Alu Rough (all very good) mainly for the extended and consistent playability that I've been noticing. I've never served and hit my groundstrokes more confidently than with this string.

Comments: This string is terrific! These strings allow me to get SO much spin. I recommend them to anybody. If you're a home stringer, you may find it a little difficult to string with these. Just be patient and you'll eventually finish stringing.

Comments: Amazing string. It is a bit powerful and takes a bit longer to adjust. I'd say it's better than ALU Power Rough. It's softer, has more spin, is MORE DURABLE, and a tad bit more power. I had doubts at first but boy, I can rip the ball with this string. I could already tell that this string would rip the fur off the ball when I was stringing it. It had to be one of the spikiest strings I had strung in a while. Anyway, A MUST HAVE IN A SERIOUS TENNIS PLAYER'S GAME.

Comments: I play with a Prince Exo3 Rebel and I have very top spin heavy strokes on both sides. I hit the ball pretty hard as well. The first time I strung this string I put the Tour Bite in the mains at 53 and Gosen OG Micro 17 in the crosses at 55lbs. This really wasn't very good at all. Although I had great access to spin and control I really didn't have the power and the pocketing that I look for in a poly. I cut it out after 2 matches because I hated it and decided to really drop the tension. I strung the Solinco in the mains at 47 and Gosen at 49lbs. I thought I was playing with a different string. I still had everything I did with the higher tension but with a much better pocketing feeling and loads more pop. I was able to put the ball in easily because of the extreme spin that I could get with these strings, but what amazed me the most is the ability to flatten out shots for winners. It almost felt like PL2 but with a little bit of a crisper feel. Serves were also great. If I missed my flat serve then I felt very comfortable with really hitting a heavy spin second serve. I really recommend these strings, but I wouldn't try them if you have a very sensitive arm. They are pretty stiff, but I mean that is the reason why people who play with poly's so that really isn't that big of a deal. I also recommend stringing up two jobs with this string. One at a normal poly tension and then one 3-6lbs less depending on how daring you are.

Comments: This is a really good spin string, has very good bite on the ball and when strung in a hybrid with a regular syn. string it had a nice crisp feel.
From: Mike, NC, USA, 02/11

Comments: The spin is great, like any other topspin string, and the power level is very impressive even strung at a higher tension. Balls also come off the string with a very nice solid pop feel. As for durability, I usually go through synthetic gut about every 9 sets. This string is durable enough to last twice that, but it loses its texture after about 6 sets making the spin less effective.
Beware if you string your own rackets. This string is VERY tricky to string. It has a very coarse metallic feel and is difficult to weave and tie off. Fortunately the same characteristics allow it to hold its tension very well it's just difficult to get an even tension on all the strings.

Comments: I like this string. It has a crisp feel. It plays predictable with plenty of power and control. And best of all it hasn't loosened up like many of the others. I did string it down 3 or 4 lbs. I crossed it with the vanquish at 3 lbs tighter. Perfect. Babolat areo pro gt. 56/59lbs 5.0
From: Rochus, 12/10

Comments: I'm not a fan of this string! It's so weird because of its square shape. I would suggest the outlast over this, which gives you more bite and control and is more cost efficient.
From: Seth, Little Rock, AR, USA, 10/10

Comments: This is really good stuff! Just the spin and pop is amazing! It also seems to maintain playability for longer than most polys. I've tried both the full bed of Tour Bite 17, as well as the hybrid version (with Vanquish in the crosses). The full bed plays a little stiff, but it's still enjoyable -- it might be a little more precise in terms of control. The hybrid version plays a little softer with a little more pop to it. I prefer the hybrid version a little better due to the overall comfort.

Comments: I think Solinco Tour Bite is awesome. It gives unbelievable power and spin with enough control to let you have good maneuverability with the ball. It doesn't die as fast as the other strings on the market but definitely the best new string on the market. I also think it's better than the much over hyped Babolat string that Nadal uses.
From: Michael, VA, USA, 07/10

Comments: I used this on my Dunlop racquet and this string made a huge difference. Tons of power and spin. Like it says. This string is good but I think Solinco Revolution is better.
From: Ian, El Paso, TX. 6/10

Comments: I really like this stuff. In my opinion it plays a lot like Pro Hurricane (the yellow stuff) but doesn't lose tension nearly as fast. I usually use a synthetic in the crosses (Sensation or Prince Topspin) to get feel. Overall, one of the best strings I've used.
From: Mark, Waco, TX. 5/10

Comments: I thought this string had good power and control. As far as spin I think Pro Hurricane Tour and Alu Rough have more spin. The string didn't move which I liked. I used this in the mains at 60lbs and Wilson Sensation in the crosses at 58lbs.
