Yonex Polytour REV, 200 meter

Yonex Polytour REV, 200 meter is a tennis string reel built for players who want to choose their gauge carefully rather than settle for a one-size-fits-all setup. With 200 m on the reel, it suits regular restringing, stringing multiple rackets or keeping a consistent setup across your frames.

What the gauge choices mean

This reel comes in 1.20 mm, 1.25 mm and 1.30 mm. In practical terms, a thinner gauge is generally used by players looking for a slightly livelier feel, while a thicker gauge is usually chosen by those who want a firmer stringbed and a bit more string life. The right choice depends on how you play, how hard you hit and how often you break strings.

For players who want control and consistency

Polytour REV sits in the polyester tennis string category, so it will appeal most to players who already know they prefer a firmer response from their stringbed. That kind of setup is often chosen by intermediate and advanced players who take full swings and want the string to stay predictable through the shot. The bright orange colour gives it a bold on-court look, but the real decision point is the gauge and the feel you want from your racket.

Who it suits

This reel makes sense if you restring often, want to compare gauges properly, or are looking for a polyester string from a trusted tennis brand. If you are choosing between the three sizes, the best option is usually the one that matches your priorities: thinner for a more responsive feel, thicker for a firmer, more hard-wearing setup.
