Yonex Poly Tour Rev Tennis String

Yonex Poly Tour Rev Tennis String

Yonex Poly Tour Rev is a spin-optimized co-polyester string built for modern topspin baseline players who want to load the ball with heavy rotation and still maintain precise depth control under full-swing conditions. Its distinctive reverse-twist, multi-sided profile bites the ball aggressively at contact and snaps back with enhanced rotation — making it one of the more spin-friendly options in the Poly Tour family while retaining the control and durability that define Yonex's polyester lineup.

• Reverse-Twist Multi-Sided Profile for Aggressive Spin — Poly Tour Rev uses a shaped, multi-sided cross-section applied with a reverse-direction twist along the string's length. This geometry creates defined edges that dig into the ball at contact while the reverse twist facilitates faster string-bed repositioning and snap-back — the key mechanical driver of spin production in modern shaped polyesters. The result is measurably heavier topspin RPM compared to round-profile polyesters at equivalent tension and swing speed.
• Control-First Response That Handles Full Swings — The firm polyester compound keeps power return low and predictable, allowing aggressive players to swing at 90–100% effort with confidence that the string will keep the ball in the court. Heavy topspin players who hit with significant racquet-head speed need this firmness — without it, the ball launches too deep and errors pile up, particularly on high balls and when moving through contact quickly.
• Durable Construction for Regular Players — The dense polyester monofilament resists notching longer than thinner or softer string options, making Poly Tour Rev a practical choice for players who hit frequently and want to maximize their restringing intervals. The shaped profile does wear over time, causing the spin-generating edges to round off — players who notice a spin reduction after many hours of use should consider restringing to restore full performance.
• Consistent String Movement and Snap-Back — Poly Tour Rev is formulated to allow meaningful lateral string movement during contact — where the strings deflect sideways under the ball and then snap back to impart additional rotation. Players stringing in open 16×19 patterns will maximize this effect; the wider lateral spacing between strings gives each main string more room to deflect and return, amplifying the spin production the Rev profile is designed to deliver.
• Ideal Player Profile — Best matched to intermediate-advanced and advanced players (NTRP 3.5–5.5) who hit with heavy topspin from the baseline and want a string that supports aggressive, spin-heavy ball-striking without compromising the depth and consistency of their groundstrokes. Players coming from RPM Rough, Solinco Hyper-G, or other spin-oriented shaped polys will find Poly Tour Rev a familiar, high-performing alternative.
• Specifications — Available in 17g (1.25mm) and 18g (1.20mm) gauges. Recommended tension 44–56 lbs; string at the lower end (44–50 lbs) to maximize string movement and snap-back spin generation. Approximately 40 ft (12.2 m) per set.

For the maximum spin benefit, string Poly Tour Rev in the mains paired with a softer multifilament cross such as Yonex Rexis Comfort — this hybrid setup retains the rev-profile spin on the dominant mains while adding comfort and feel through the softer cross string.
