Yonex Rexis Feel 16L Tennis String Reel , Black

The Yonex REXIS FEEL in Black is a high-end multifilament string designed for players who want the performance and comfort of a soft string with a sleek, modern aesthetic. While many multifilaments are limited to white or natural colors, the Black version offers a more muted, "solid" feel that many competitive players prefer.

Performance Profile

1. Enhanced Ball-Pocketing: This string is engineered for "dwell time." It allows the ball to sit on the stringbed slightly longer, providing the player with superior feedback and the ability to accurately "guide" the ball.
2. Arm-Friendly Comfort: Utilizing FORTIMO™ technology—a highly elastic polyurethane resin—it excels at absorbing harsh vibrations. It is an ideal choice for players looking to prevent or manage tennis elbow.
3. Controllable Power: Unlike "springy" multifilaments, REXIS FEEL provides a more refined energy return. It offers enough "pop" for depth but remains predictable during aggressive, full-speed swings.
4. Slick & Responsive (Black Pigment): Many players find the Black version feels slightly more "crisp" and less "mushy" than the White or Natural versions, offering a slightly more direct connection to the ball.
5. Reduced Friction: The specialized FRF (Fusion of Resin Filament) process creates a denser string that resists fraying and allows for better snapback compared to traditional synthetic guts.

Best Suited For

1. Touch & Precision Players: Ideal for those who rely on volleys, slices, and drop shots where feel is the primary requirement.
2. Players with Arm Sensitivity: A premier alternative for those who find polyester strings too stiff but still want a competitive, high-performance feel.
3. Hybrid Enthusiasts: In a 200m reel, this is a cost-effective way to use a premium multifilament in the crosses of a hybrid setup, softening a stiff polyester main string while maintaining a "stealth" look.
4. Aesthetic Minimalists: The Black colorway provides a professional, understated look that coordinates perfectly with dark-colored racquet frames.

Key Technology: FORTIMO™

Developed by Mitsui Chemicals, FORTIMO™ is a specialized polyurethane that combines high elasticity with durability and heat resistance. In the REXIS FEEL, this material ensures the string remains "lively" and comfortable for a longer duration than standard nylon strings, maintaining its performance throughout its lifespan.
