ReString Zero

Zero is our power and spin specialist. A shaped profile and a super‑slippery surface work together so the mains slide and snap back hard, adding rotation without you forcing it.

What it feels like

Lively pocketing with a fast rebound.

Explosive when you accelerate, clean on short swings.

Who it suits

Baseliners who win with height, shape and heavy ball.

Players who want free spin to raise net clearance without losing depth.

What you will notice on court

More lift on the same swing path.

Easier depth from the backhand when you commit to the finish.

Serves jump and kick reliably.

Stringing notes

If the launch feels too much, add 1–2 lb or blend with Sync crosses to steady trajectory.

Frequent breakers can move up a gauge before moving up a lot in tension.

Popular hybrid

Zero mains × Sync crosses. Keeps signature snapback while tightening directional control.

This specific hybrid setup is used by WTA pro Cristina Bucsa.

ReString Sync

Sync is the control and feel option. A round profile keeps the launch window stable so your targets stay your targets, even deep in a rally.

What it feels like

Clean pocketing with a more linear response.

Direct feedback that helps you steer late.

Who it suits

Counter‑punchers who redirect pace and change direction under pressure.

Tactical players who build patterns and hit to small windows.

What you will notice on court

Easier left‑right precision and depth management.

Confidence taking the ball early or taking pace off without balloons.

Stringing notes

If balls land short, reduce reference tension 1–2 lb or pair with Zero crosses for a touch more pop.

If you crave a touch more dwell time, try a thinner gauge.

Popular hybrid

Sync mains × Zero crosses. Control‑first bed with extra spin and free speed.

ReString Vivo

Vivo is our control and spin option made with recycled polyester. It brings a firm, bite‑first response that rewards good technique and full swings.

What it feels like

Firm‑crisp and very clear at impact.

Bite on the ball with minimal string movement.

Who it suits

Experienced hitters who generate their own pace.

Players who want a composed bed that stays honest over time.

What you will notice on court

Reliable height and depth when you swing through.

Serves and first‑strike patterns benefit from the direct feel.

Stringing notes

If impact is a bit firm, drop tension 1–2 lb or blend with Sync in the crosses.

Thinner gauges add feel and spin at the cost of durability.

Popular hybrid

Vivo mains × Sync crosses. Maintains control and bite while adding a touch of softness.

Conclusion

Pick the profile that matches how you win points and how you like contact to feel.
