Yonex Poly Tour Fire 200m Reel

Reel Yonex Poly Tour Fire

Yonex Poly Tour Fire is a red, round monofilament string. The feel of firmness on strike gives way to an impressive ball-control compromise.

In fact, the Japanese brand has developed a string quite similar to Luxilon Alu Power. The string's rigidity combines control and feel. What's more, SIF technology (silicon-injected filament) increases spin for a round string. As a result, heavy hitters can benefit from a versatile string that retains its properties over time. The tension hold is very good, as is the power reserve, especially for profiles that like to engage with the ball.
