Babolat AddiXion + 200M Tennis String Reel , Natural

The Babolat AddiXion 200M Reel (Natural) is a premium multifilament string designed for players who seek an optimal blend of comfort, power, and enhanced durability. This 200-meter reel is the most cost-effective format for frequent players and home stringers, providing approximately 16 to 18 full restrings.

The Natural colorway provides a classic, clean aesthetic that mimics the look of natural gut, making it a versatile choice for any racquet frame.

Performance Profile

1. Arm-Friendly Comfort: AddiXion is constructed from highly elastic polyamide fibers immersed in a polyurethane (PU) matrix. This design is engineered to absorb shock and dampen harsh vibrations, making it an excellent "soft" string for players looking to prevent or manage arm injuries like tennis elbow.
2. Dynamic Power: Due to its multifilament build, the string bed offers a high energy return. It provides easy depth and ball speed, which is especially beneficial for players with shorter or more compact swing styles.
3. Enhanced Durability with PTFE: What distinguishes AddiXion from standard multifilaments is the integration of Polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE) fibers. These low-friction fibers reduce heat buildup and friction between the strings, helping to prevent premature snapping and extending the overall life of the string.
4. Supple Feel: It offers a very "connected" and plush sensation at impact, giving the player great confidence on touch shots, lobs, and volleys.

Best Suited For

1. Frequent Multifilament Users: Ideal for players who love the feel of a soft string but find that traditional synthetic guts or multifilaments wear out too quickly.
2. Club & Recreational Players: Those looking for a high-quality, all-around string that provides a premium feel and consistent performance.
3. Intermediate Players: Great for those who want a larger, more forgiving sweet spot and a bit more "pop" on their shots.
4. Hybrid Setups: An excellent choice for the "crosses" (horizontal strings) to add comfort and feel to a setup with a stiffer polyester main string.

Usage & Stringing Tips

1. Fraying: It is normal for AddiXion to begin to "fray" (showing small fibers) as the outer coating wears down. This is a characteristic of high-quality multifilaments and indicates the string is effectively absorbing impact.
2. Tension Recommendation: To balance the string's natural power with control, most players find a sweet spot between 53–58 lbs. For maximum comfort, aim for the lower end of your racquet's recommended range.
3. Consistency: Purchasing the 200m reel ensures that every restring comes from the same technical batch, ensuring a predictable response on the court every time you play.
