The Wilson Revolve Spin 16G (1.30 mm) Black is a firm, control-oriented co-polyester string engineered for aggressive players with fast swing speeds. Designed with a distinctive pentagonal (5-sided) profile and a low-friction UHMW polymer coating, this string optimizes string snapback and ball bite to generate heavy topspin and slice while maintaining high directional control.
Performance Profile
- Pentagonal Ball Bite: The 5-sided geometric shape bites into the ball felt upon contact, imparting heavy rotation on aggressive topspin and slice groundstrokes.
- UHMW Low-Friction Snapback: Formulated with an ultra-high-molecular-weight (UHMW) additive that allows main strings to slide freely and snap back into place instantly, adding additional RPMs to your shots.
- Low-Power Control Bed: Plays deader and firmer than standard round Revolve, allowing big hitters to take full-body cuts at the ball without fear of shots sailing long.
- Crosslink Ester Polymer Construction: Offers solid tension hold and durability for a shaped co-poly string, making the 16-gauge (1.30 mm) version highly resistant to notching.
Best Suited For
- Aggressive Groundstrokers: Ideal for intermediate to advanced players with long, fast swing paths who want maximum control on heavy-hitting strokes.
- Heavy Spin Seekers: Perfect for players looking for a shaped string setup that drops topspin shots sharply inside the baseline.
- Frequent String Breakers: The thick 16G (1.30 mm) diameter paired with slick UHMW technology provides excellent durability for high-frequency hitters.
