What makes you think this? Doubt Fritz is - in the video below at 1:19, you can see that he's stringing with gut/hawk 3 (aka standard hawk) in Atlanta this year.
True.
You are saying Rublev is looking to jump ship to Head? Source?
Let's see.
Fritz is using Gut & hawk 3
Well, as a contract player of Babolat he should already play with the strings of the supplier - don't you think?
This just in, RPM Pwr...wonder why he changed since his biggest titles were won with the Head strings...

When is this new Thiem string available for ordinary players? Is it very different from Rpm blast or just a pj?
@Howard H was the blacked-out frame at Cinci a Head frame?
I heard there are some getty pics, where you can see the HEAD logo on the butt cap
It is very stiff. And the color is pretty neat.When is this new Thiem string available for ordinary players? Is it very different from Rpm blast or just a pj?

One of several options.
haha, good one! strike is better than a pro stock racquet! i assume the babolat's money did the switch....do you really think, he bought a strike inspite of an armee of racquet's technician do the tuning jobs for him!!
So you did not know Thiem switched to the original Babolat pure strike 18x20 years ago leaving his pro stock Heads behind?
The official launch of the new HEAD strings aka Experimental will be in the next couple of days.
Based on some of the comments here, experimental is very stiff... like 4g stiff...I hope not... Well I guess I'll find out soon.
What do you consider Hyper G, stiff, soft or in between?
I am perfectly fine with the comfort of hyper g 1.20. haven't tried other gauges.
HEAD Experimental is compareable to Hyper G.
Any update to this? Looks like there’s been no official release yet.
Sorry, my fault. I mixed it up some how. The seeding will start end of this year and official launch then Jan 2020.
m surprised because Thiem used before Babolast rpm blast rough which is soft feeling string and in his hybrid with gut would be even softer!
For sure not a stiff Poly. As I said before it is compareable to Hyper G.
Thiem is trying all the combination. he needs to find the perfect combo hybrid to WIN his first major next year at the French open...... What will it be ??? that string bed looks like fullbed poly though... optical illusion ??
Now Thiem is with RPM power lol

Image is from China open so at least right now he’s using full bed RPM power
he won the China open so it must be like the best string in the world right now... is it out already ?? I can't wait til I try this. I wonder if the spin is as good or better than RPM blast ??
How come you are already that much familiar with the new strings from Thiem even before they are being sold in the shops?
does it have more or less spin than RPM blast rough ?
Uhm. You do realise that they changed surface? Bounces are different on different surfaces? And different playstyles are suitable to different surfaces?
Bounce maybe yes surface effect but rpm is related to string to ball coefficient unless he changed his technique which is not the case I reckon.
YES pros change strokes from clay season to hard!!!
why would Thiem change to this string. If it has more power then Pros like Thiem doesnt' need more power. they need more control, feel and spin to control the power
but thiem does use tremendous amount of topspin. he hits it so hard it is harder to see the spin than you would with rafa
