The all new Solinco Tour Bite Diamond Rough is a great choice for players seeking a string heavy on spin and grip with a responsive feel. This string takes the successful Tour Bite formula and adds a new diamond shaped texture pattern to the surface of the string. This results in a string that offers increased flexibility for improved response and control. The texture pattern provides massive grip for hitting with topspin and biting slices. The co-poly construction ensures that the string plays firm yet comfortably and with controlled power, even at the highest of swing speeds. Diamond Rough plays softer than original Tour Bite and is a bit firmer than Tour Bite Soft. This string performs well in a full set and also serves as a great cross string for smooth mains and natural gut. The 16 gauge diameter provides maximum durability with a slight drop in feel and response. Players seeking a poly that expertly balances power spin and control are going to love Solinco Tour Bite Diamond Rough.
