I've been testing strings for like 7 months and I have narrowed down to these 2. RPM Blast and Gamma Zo Twist. I haven't been able to get my hands on the Zo Twist yet but I really want to hear some feedback about it. I am mainly looking for a string that will help create more spin while also allowing me to hit deeper into the court. So for all of you who have tried both the RPM Blast and Zo Twist which one do you think is better and why?

That's a lot of money spent them.
Well for the first part you just put one string in one racquet and one string in the other, then you take them both to court and try them both, simple enough. I had a specific list of strings that I wanted to try and I used them and narrowed it down to RPM blast and Zo Twist. RPM blast beat out all the other strings I tried so I compare RPM blast to the last string on my list, Zo Twist. In my post I was asking for feedback on Zo Twist compared to RPM blast.
Make sense now? It isn't really hard to follow just imagine yourself picking out which strings to use, you would do the same, its just compare/contrast.

Zo twist is nothing special, very stiff even strung at 53, spin production is good but not above average for a profile poly.
Sounds like to me u just want a black poly, did u try MSV Focus Hex and, Volkl cyclone?
Save ur self the time and money and just go w the Blast, I've never played it but every other poly I've tried I would take over Zo Twist.

i've used both. and i hate the Zo twist.
i used PHT before and it was killing my arm, so i went to try something else. my local store had the black Zo twist 16g, so i gave it a shot. had decent spin, but no better than PHT. but this string was WAY too powerful for me. every shot i hit landed out. no feel at net (worse than PHT). serves were faster but had no control. tension dropped faster than PHT too. worst part was, it hurt my arm more than PHT. i even strung it @ 53lbs compared to the 58bs of the PHT and it still hurt.
then RPM blast came out. it feels alot like PHT, but softer and with slightly more spin (IMO). has enough power, but not too much when compared with Zo twist. really good on serves, slices, and dropshots. better feel than PHT and Zo twist. RPM lasts longer than any other string i've used too (though some people have complained of tension problems). best part is, it doesn't hurt my arm.
if you liked RPM, i'd suggest you stick with it or chose another alternative spin string if your other choice is Zo twist and you haven't even tried it yet.
