Shop Hybrids
Solinco’s Brain Dead collab is a pre-packaged poly-poly hybrid featuring Mach-10 and Hyper-G Round.
Mach-10 is Solinco’s slickest string, employing CloudFORM technology for superior notch-resistance while retaining a medium-soft feel. Mach-10 is a tremendous all-arounder suitable for both high-spin players and those who penetrate the court with deeper, flatter shots.
Hyper-G Round is the same Hyper-G you know and love but in a round profile. Round strings are cherished on tour for their superior tension maintenance, more predictable response and consistent feel. Hyper-G Round is firm and connected without being overly crisp or pingy.
Use Mach-10 in the mains for better bite and lift on the ball. Use HGR in the mains for a more penetrating shot.
Our first ever product collab! Beckett co-developed this string with the mad scientists at Toroline for the snappiest and most responsive combo possible. The softer main string (O-Toro Pink) snaps aggressively against the firmer cross string (O-Toro Snap Tour Flex), offering reduced ball pocketing compared to a soft-cross-setup for a crisper, more responsive and control oriented setup. Expect big power and big spin on every shot!

SLAP: ReString and Valldoreix collaborated to fine tune the flagship “Zero” for improve tension maintenance and control while delivering on Zero’s class-leading spin and durability.
Sync: One of my favourite polyester strings of all time for its rare combination of feel and snapback.

The art in string-racquet optimizing lies in balancing the mitigation of a racquet’s weaknesses while preserving its inherent character.
The Defyer isn’t a racquet for spin players, it’s a racquet for ball strikers who need more spin.
Overall, I think the new Aero is a fantastic update that will split the audience. Some people will love it and some people will hate it and I think a huge part of that story is going to be about finding the right string setup.
Overall, I think this is my personal favourite Blade of all time. Does it feel as good as the V5? No, but it offers so much more playability. Tennisnerd actually told me I should switch to this racquet after we tested them.
Overall, in typical Yonex fashion, this is a very solid update that feels objectively superior. A more consistent feel, increased power and a more predictable response.
Soldier wants you to go for your shots. If you want to control the point with power and spin, do it. Just make sure you commit and let your arm and body flow through the shot.
