The Babolat RPM Soft 200m reel is the ideal tennis string for players seeking a blend of polyester-like spin and control with the added benefit of increased comfort and flexibility. Perfect for intermediate to advanced players, this string offers the ideal middle ground between durability and playability, making it a smart choice for those who want performance without compromising feel.
Unlike traditional polyester strings, RPM Soft is made from a unique polyamide monofilament construction, giving it a much softer and arm-friendly response. This is a game-changer for players who love the spin and control of RPM Blast or RPM Rough, but need something gentler on the arm — especially during long sessions or for those prone to elbow or shoulder strain.
The 200m reel provides enough string for up to 17 full string jobs, making it cost-effective for regular stringers, coaches, clubs, or players who frequently restring their rackets. It also allows for hybrid setups, pairing well with stiffer poly crosses or synthetic guts.
RPM Soft delivers exceptional snapback, enabling players to generate high levels of topspin while maintaining control over trajectory and depth. This makes it especially suitable for baseline players who rely on heavy topspin and long rallies.
The string’s smooth surface also improves tension maintenance compared to traditional poly strings, meaning it holds its performance longer — even under heavy hitting. Players can expect a consistent feel and reliable response from the first hit to the last.
Available in multiple gauges (like 1.25mm), RPM Soft offers the flexibility to choose the perfect balance of control, comfort, and durability to match your game style.
Visually, the reel comes in a clean, professional design with Babolat’s branding — ideal for players who appreciate quality equipment with a premium finish.
If you’re looking for a softer, more forgiving monofilament string that still brings the spin, control, and durability of poly-based strings, the Babolat RPM Soft Bobine 200m is one of the best performance string options available today.
