Developed alongside Tour Sniper as its "sister" string. Grapplesnake wanted to engineer a second Tour level string, but with our unique characteristics. The team were interested in achieving an even softer feel, add some power, while maintaining ultimate directional control. The results are impressive. Grapplesnake have gotten incredibly positive feedback from every single player involved in the development and testing of this string. Alpha feels soft and comfortable, and very stable upon hard impact. It is also pentagonal in shape, and easy to string. Alpha has been our biggest project so far, and it has taken countless hours of our efforts on and off court to make it feel "just right". Grapplesnake believes there aren't others like it, and some people in our team call it our "masterpiece". Available in gold color. Diameter: 1.25 mm Reel Length: 200m Tension recommendations: - Normal poly stringing tension. Approximate string weight with zip ties and no packaging: 21 grams.
