Comments: Although a rather old product from Babolat, it is one of my favorite strings. Very addictive, with good crisp pops on contact, control and spin. I like rough strings that give lots of spin, and have tried Tourna Big Hitter 7, Solinco Barbwire and Tour Bite, Dunlop Blackwidow, Blackcode, RPM Blast and RPM Blast rough and for me, the Pro Hurricane Tour 17 is the best of the lot. Some of the strings I tried are very good only in the beginning, and begins to eat into each other -- becoming dead or loose tension too fast. Pro Hurricane Tour 17 maintains it's characteristics and playability longer in that aspect. I have this strung full bed at 50 lbs on both AeroPro Drive and Pure Aero (its slightly stiffer on the arm and vibrates a little more on the PA). Definitely recommend a go on this string.

Comments: I won a reel of Solinco Hyper G 1.25 and strung it at 52 lbs on my Pure Drive 2015. After 2 weeks ( 4 sets of strings), I have got golfers elbow. A quarter year without tennis and then I stung my racquet with Huricane 17 at 52 lbs and as Xcel as a cross at 51 lbs. No pain and great ball quality! A very ofensive sutup. It's strange -- I still feel my elbow when I am lifting something, but I can play tennis pain free.

Comments: Great string! The same response on cold or hot days. Constant tennsion for a long period. Best product from Babolat that can be challenged by Luxilon ALU Power or Head Sonic Pro Edge.

Comments: I am a 5.0 player and use this string in a hybrid setup for my Babolat Pure Drive Tour. Mains: Pro Hurricane Tour 17; crosses: Xcel 16 gauge. I have tried may different hybrids with the poly in the mains and a soft string in the crosses, and this is by far the best combo yet.

Comments: Well, this string really provides wonderful spin on my Head IG prestige MP 18x20 at 54 lbs. However, I don't like the harsh and dead feeling of this string, though it has good durability. I would try a mix with natural gut string.

Comments:I preferred this 17g over the 16g. Because I use it for the whole string-bed, the thinner gauge was easier on my arm. I haven't broken them yet since I switched from the 16g. I've tried lots of polyesters and they were all hard on my arm but this gauge provides great spin and has a good feel for a poly. If your strokes are well grooved then you'll get good results off the ground and on serves with this one.
