FAQs:

What tension should I use for the Yonex Aerobite Boost hybrid string?

Is this string suitable for beginner players?

This string is designed for advanced players who can utilize its control features. Beginners may find it less forgiving and should consider strings with higher shock absorption ratings.

What playing styles benefit most from the Aerobite Boost?

Control players, all-around players, and doubles specialists benefit most. It's particularly effective for players who prioritize shot placement, deceptive shots, and tactical gameplay over pure power.

How long does the 200m reel last for regular stringing?

How is Yonex Aerobite different than Aerobite boost?

Although both strings are hybrids, the difference is in their gauges. The Aerobite uses alternating gauges (0.67mm mains, 0.61mm crosses). And the Aerobite Boost uses 0.72mm mains and 0.61mm crosses along with Vectran material for slightly more durability and repulsion power.
