A flexible polyamide core is reinforced with aramid powder for durability and wrapped in a silicone layer for string movement, giving it comfort and power that rival the softest synthetic strings while keeping some of the control and snapback of a shaped poly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is the softest, most arm-friendly string in the RPM range — closer in feel to a firm multifilament than to RPM Blast, and aimed at players who want RPM branding without the stiffness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOn-Court Performance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImpact is genuinely soft — the polyamide core absorbs shock in a way that no true co-polyester does, so it is one of the more forgiving strings a poly-curious player can try.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is more free depth and pop than a control poly; the trade-off is that the stringbed feels a little muted and less connected than a firm co-poly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpin is moderate. The string does not have the sharp edge grip or violent snapback of RPM Blast, so shot shape comes more from the player than from the string.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDurability is the weak point — playtesters found it notches and displaces faster than a co-polyester, so heavy topspin hitters will chew through it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho Should Use It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlayers with tennis elbow or wrist and shoulder sensitivity\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eMultifilament users who want a touch more control and durability\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntermediate players trying a poly-style string for the first time\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eDoubles and touch players who value comfort over spin\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlayers who found RPM Blast or RPM Team too harsh\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho Should Not Use It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eHeavy topspin baseliners who need bite and snapback\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrequent string-breakers who need durability\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdvanced players who want a firm, connected control response\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlayers chasing maximum spin\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHybrid Setups \u0026amp; Performance Adjustments\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlready a powerful string; move toward the upper tension window if depth control becomes an issue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eControl\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUse a full bed at higher tension, or put a firm co-poly in the crosses, to tighten the response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpin\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePair with a shaped poly in the mains if you want more bite; RPM Soft alone is a comfort string, not a spin string.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComfort\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is the string's strength — a full bed at low-to-mid tension is about as soft as a monofilament gets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTension Stability\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTension holds reasonably at first, but playability fades as the string notches — restring on feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDurability\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUse the 1.30 gauge and expect to restring more often than with a co-polyester.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTypology:\u003cbr\u003eMonofilament\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShape:\u003cbr\u003eRound\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComposition:\u003cbr\u003eCo-polyamide with an aramid-reinforced core and a silicone outer layer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable Gauges:\u003cbr\u003e1.25 \/ 1.30 mm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Babolat","offers":[{"title":"1.25","offer_id":54790513492291,"sku":"BABO-STR-23986-125","price":19.77,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"1.30","offer_id":54790513525059,"sku":"BABO-STR-23986-130","price":19.77,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2061\/2235\/files\/62740.jpg?v=1788520022","url":"https:\/\/tenniscube.shop\/products\/babolat-rpm-soft-12m-set","provider":"Tennis Cube","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
