Yonex POLYTOUR REV Tennis String Mint

The Yonex POLYTOUR REV in Mint is a high-performance, spin-oriented co-polyester string that combines cutting-edge Japanese engineering with one of the most unique and refreshing aesthetics in tennis. Like the rest of the REV line, it is designed to help aggressive players generate massive "heavy" spin while maintaining a controlled, crisp feel.

The POLYTOUR REV Mint is an eight-sided (octagonal) monofilament. Its performance is driven by Yonex’s proprietary SIF Technology (Silicone Oil Infusion). This process infuses silicone oil into the string material, which drastically reduces friction between the strings. This allows for superior "string-to-string" movement, enabling the mains to snap back into position with extreme velocity after being displaced by the ball, resulting in significantly increased rotation.

Performance Profile

1. Spin (10/10): The octagonal shape provides the "bite," while the SIF technology provides the "snap." Together, they produce elite-level spin that helps the ball dip sharply at the baseline.
2. Feel (Medium-Firm): The Mint version offers a modern, responsive sensation. It is firm enough to provide "point-and-shoot" accuracy but features enough dampening to avoid the "jarring" feel of older-generation polyesters.
3. Control (9/10): Designed for players with fast swing speeds, it provides a predictable, low-to-medium power level that allows you to swing out fully without over-hitting.
4. Tension Maintenance (8/10): Known for its ability to hold its playability and shape over time, the POLYTOUR REV stays "fresh" longer than many other shaped strings that can go dead quickly.

Best Suited For

1. Aggressive Baseliners: Players who want to maximize the "kick" on their serves and the "dive" on their groundstrokes.
2. Intermediate to Advanced Competitors: Those who possess the swing speed necessary to activate the silicone-infused snap-back.
3. Aesthetic-Focused Players: The Mint colorway is a modern favorite, offering a sleek, "cool" look that pairs exceptionally well with the Yonex EZONE or the VCORE frames.
4. Hybrid Players: An excellent choice for the "mains" when paired with a soft cross string, providing spin while the SIF coating ensures the strings don't "lock" too early.

Why Choose Mint?

The Mint colorway is more than just a style choice; it represents the modern, technical identity of the Yonex POLYTOUR line. It offers the exact same mechanical benefits as the Purple and Orange versions—specifically the SIF-enhanced snap-back—but with a unique visual presence on the court that stands out from more traditional string colors.
