Grapplesnake Tour M8 16/1.30 String

4.8

As one of Grapplesnake's most popular strings, this 8-sided co-poly combines phenomenal spin with outstanding feel

Introducing Tour M8! Occupying the middle ground between Grapplesnake's softest poly (Alpha) and one of its firmest (Tour Sniper), this co-poly delivers exceptional control on full swings while staying surprisingly responsive on touch shots and shorter cuts. It also packs eight edges for bite, a slick surface for snapback, and an ultra predictable trajectory, giving it exceptional spin-potential. Ultimately, Tour M8 is an extremely well-built co-poly. In addition to great control, spin, and durability, it delivers a wonderfully balanced ("Goldilocks") feel, making it one of the most versatile and impressive polys to hit the U.S. market in 2025.

Gauge: 16/1.30
Length: 40ft/12m

String Review 10/10So far I’ve been using this string for about 2 weeks, hitting 2-3 times weekly for about 2 hours. I’m a 4.5 NTRP 18+ men’s division coming from the Dunlop Explosive Bite which are my favorite strings! I’d highly recommend these M8 as a similar string. Easy spin, control and comfort are up there as well. So far durability has been about the same as the Explosive Bite if not slightly better. 10/10 would highly recommend. My string tension setup is 53lbs mains/55lbs crosses.

Great soft polyson (16, elite junior) loves it, no jarring vibrations to arm even if hit off center. Distinctive olive green color, easy to string as you run it through your fingers, mild 8 sided profile so if control is what you crave with a dash of extra rpm's, & insurance against arm injuries, this is for you. Held tension well, son hits huge. Good value for money.
