Dunlop Iconic Speed 17G Natural Tennis String

The Dunlop Iconic Speed 17G in Natural is a premium multifilament string that pushes the boundaries of power and feel. By using a thinner 17-gauge construction, this string maximizes the "trampoline effect," making it one of the most vibrant and responsive options in the Dunlop lineup.

Performance Profile

1. Maximum Power: The 1.25mm gauge allows for more stringbed deflection than the 16G. This translates to effortless depth, making it perfect for players who want to penetrate the court without having to swing physically harder.
2. Superior Comfort: Like all high-quality multifilaments, this string is comprised of thousands of micro-fibers. It excels at absorbing harsh vibrations, providing a "plush" feel that is very gentle on the wrist, elbow, and shoulder.
3. Enhanced "Snap" and Feel: The "Speed" designation comes from a unique outer coating that allows the fibers to remain slightly firmer than a standard multifilament. This results in a crisp, lively "snap" at impact rather than a dull or mushy sensation.
4. Touch and Ball Pocketing: The thinner fibers provide exceptional "pocketing," where the ball feels like it sits on the strings for a split second longer, giving you ultimate control over touch shots and finesse volleys.

Best Suited For

1. Players with Arm Sensitivities: If you struggle with tennis elbow but still want a "fast" feeling string, this is a top-tier choice.
2. Finesse and All-Court Players: Ideal for the player who wins points with placement, lobs, and volleys rather than pure baseline grinding.
3. Low-Powered/Smaller Head Racquets: If your racquet has a small head size or a very stiff frame, this string helps add back the missing power and comfort.
