Anybody have any clues on the release date for this new string? I'm excited to try it out in my new YT Prestige Mp
Babolat RPM Blast

Since it's octagonal in shape, I think it will not work so good in nat gut hybrids, where the copoly is in the crosses only
From where do you know Querry use the new RPM Blast - do you have a link ?

It's about time Babolat came out with something like this. Other companies have beat them to the punch, but this should be good.

I started a new thread, but for anyone who is interested in trying RPM Blast without having to wait, get Black Code, its the same string.

My information can be confirmed by talking to Tecnifibre, even Chris from TW can verify it if he wants to ;-)

It obviously isnt the same thing because black code is pentagonal and rpm is not. RPM has a silicon coating and BC doesnt. Stop bullsh*tting

I would assume it works as far as spin is concerned. I dont know about the pros' comments on how amazing it is. The silicon would make the strings more slippery, thus making it create more spin.

I'd let you have my sample for $50...

slippery means less spin. ball will slip right off the string bed

HOW do i know this isn't the Black pro hurr tour ??
I'm not entirely sure how to prove this to you but it's definitely not, although you can't see it in this picture, the string just says "Babolat" on it, nothing else, I'll try and take a picture that shows that

it's most likely RPM Blast...yeah, looks like we'll have to wait until it ships at the beginning of April...from what i was reading, it was kind of a shock that a lot of pros were switching to this in such a short period of time (usually it's a gradual process)...

I only have the one pack, as I think I stated ina different thread I got it from a Babolat sponsored player who came to the John Newcombe Tennis Ranch

You obviously dont know anything.
Its been proved on tw university that if the strings are more slippery, the strings snap back into place creating more spin.
Flouro resin is used in lux strings to make it more slippery.
