String Review – base12 Alpha
Next to writing about the latest tennis news and events, I also occasionally play some tennis myself.

The founders are two former college players, who came back to Germany and according to their website wanted to […]
Stringlab Hydrogen Revo 1.26 Review
I’m not really into bright/neon bright green tennis strings, but thought to myself: “let’s put this one on the Blade to match the cosmetics”. Also, I wanted to try a more plasticky string. Hydrogen Revo Hex feels exactly that when stringing and touching it: a plasticky, not very shiny/slippery string, with 6 pronounced edges that […]
L-Tec Premium Meteor Pro Strings Review
I have been playing this string for more than a year now in both the 1.20 and 1.25 gauge. First, playing at a lower level and using the Diadem Elevate V3 FS98 (1.25 gauge) and the Pro Kennex Ki5 295 (1.20 gauge) at low 20s. During the month of April of 2024, I revisited it […]
Searching for the best multifilament string
Our contributor, Sebastiano Sali, has been searching for the best multifilament string for his game. Here are his thoughts.

Oehms Alu Pearl Rough Review
Oehms Alu Pearl Rough 1.25 is a uniquely shaped string Made in Germany. Besides strings, they manufacture leather grips. I played it for a month, and this is my verdict. Strung at 22kg full-bed on my Diadem Elevate V2 FS98, my impressions during all warm-ups were that its stiffness level was soft-to-medium, meaning that it […]

Gamma Verve Soft Review
Oak Gast is back with a string review. This has become one of his personal faves. Read why in this Gamma Verve Soft Review. Gamma Verve Soft Specifications Playability When I first got Verve Soft out on the court, I thought the string naming was surely a mistake. The string initially felt “pingy” and extremely […]
Tecnifibre Razor Code hybrid review
We have a guest string review from Christopher Conte. It’s a Tecnifibre Razor Code hybrid review. Is it a great poly/poly? Tecnifibre Razor Code hybrid – the Ultimate Poly/Poly? As a long time tennis player, there is always the racket journey process to go through. To me, that seemed much easier than finding the best […]
