Comments: I love this string, I play with a Pure Drive Wimbledon model from 2016. I use this as a hybrid with Wilson Sensation > Mains are strung at 50 lbs - Babolat RPM Team > crosses are strung at 48 lbs. No arm trouble, smooth and crisp with a great deal of pop, but controllable.

Comments: I tried this string on my Pure Drive and loved it. Power and a soft feel. I then used it as a hybrid on the mains and Xcel 17 in the crosses and was even softer without any power loss. I was able to string the mains at 53 lbs and crosses at 55 lbs. Even more power and spin with no arm trouble at all.

Comments: Awesome string. I used NXT 17 for years but it would only last about two or three sets. I was re-stringing every week it seemed. Switched to the Babolat RPM Team this week and holy cow! This string has some serious pop and bite. My serve exploded off my racquet and my groundies went where ever I wanted them to. Drop shots? All day long! I love this stuff. If you don't swing fast and hard though I'm not sure this is the string for you. You need to hit it firmly to get it to work. It's also easy on my arm like the NXT was, which is why I played with it. I play with a Babolat AeroPro Drive.

Comments: Good string, great spin and power. 3.5 player with an I Radical (small head size) usually play with TechneFiber NRG 17 at 59 lbs. Had this strung down at 55 lbs. Offers good control, spin, and power. But if you are used to playing with non-poly string it can seem hard on the arm. Switching to this significantly upped my game in terms of spin. I take the word of the other reviewers that its easier/softer on the arm than RPM blast.
From:Garret, 10/14

Comments: Tried this string again in a low tension setup (38/33 lbs) in a 16x19 pattern. Most control at low tensions of any poly I've tried. Excellent tension maintenance (holds tension longer than RPM Blast and much longer than Cyclone). Great spin generation at low tension (better than Cyclone or any non-shaped poly, slightly less that RPM Blast). I've never felt the "softness" difference vs. RPM Blast at high or low tensions. This is a very firm string with slightly less power than RPM Blast or Cyclone, more control, comparable spin, and great tension maintenance (especially if you pre-stretch).

Comments: String is very firm. Tension maintenance is good. It is hard on my arm at high tensions. I always hybrid it with Volkl Synthetic Gut. The spin generation is good but not as good as RPM Blast or Cyclone. I've strung it at 63, 60, and 52 pounds in a Head Graphene Speed MP (16x19).
From:Mason, 7/13

Comments: Lots of people talk about this string, so I decided to give it a try. This string is hard for my shoulder and my arm and it's way too stiff.
From:Tom, 2/13

Comments: As a main string with VS Gut in the crosses RPM Team 17g plays very similarly to RPM Blast 17g at the same tension, with a few subtle differences. I notice Team isn't quite as powerful or precise as Blast when I'm hitting out, but is better able to get consistently good depth at lower swing speeds. Comfort is a bit better as well.

Comments: Just strung my 2012 Roddick with RPM Team 17g on the mains and crossed it with XCel French Open 17g @ 60 lbs and I love it. I have had elbow problems before, so I played with gut for the last 6 months, but I missed the spin from poly. I tried the Team/Excel combo and no elbow problems yet. I love the low powered and soft feel of this combo. I have never made so many shots two inches inside the lines I'm aiming for, and it drives my opponets crazy! It's great!
From:Tony, 9/12

Comments: I have found this to be the best string I have used. I strung my Prince EXO3 Red (first version) in May at 60 lbs figuring tension would lower to 58. We can only play about twice a week. String lasted 2 1/2 months when it lost resiliency. I had increased power and control on all shots with greater control on backhands and lobs. The sweet spot was the face, the entire face, of the racquet. I found this string very comfortable, my tennis elbow almost disappeared, but has come back some when string lost resiliency. Unlike a lot of poly's, I never lost playability until the strings went bad at the 2 1/2 months I mentioned above. My previous string was Babolat Pro Hurricane.
From:Steve, 8/12

Comments: Even though there's no such thing as a "soft" poly, RPM Team is noticeably "softer" in feel than RPM Blast and otherwise much the same with great spin and low power. Still on the pricier end of new polys though. It may be tough for Jim to put topspin on a volley, because a volley is hit with underspin. If you had elbow surgery Ben and want arm-friendly string, you shouldn't be playing with polys at all! Stick to multis and natural gut, drop your tension, and find a more flexible frame.
From:JJ, 6/12

Comments: It's exactly what it is advertised as: a softer version of RPM Blast. It's not so softthat it has a mushy feeling, but it is noticeably softer than RPM Blast at the same tension.Otherwise, it plays exactly the same: insane spin potential and very controllable power.Seemed like my serves had a bit more pace and spin than usual, but that could just bebecause I was having a good day or that it was fresh strings. Very impressed overall.
From:Chris, 4/12

Comments: This is truly some of the worst string I have ever played with. Absolutely no feel on the ball. Can't even tell I'm hitting the ball at times on ground-strokes. It's far worse on the serve. Might as well just walk to the other side of the court and put it on a tee for my opponent. No power at all. Nothing but RPM Blast from here on out
From:TK, 4/12

Comments: Not a good choice in string if looking for spin and control. Way too soft in feel. Tough to put topspin on volleys. Babolat Addiction is a much better choice.
From:Jim, 3/12

Comments: Love these strings, really soft and offer a lot of touch and feel compared tothe RPM Blast (hence the name "team"). It still has the same spin, powerand control you would expect from RPM but now it's just a little bitsofter. Overall great string!
