Tour Mako is our latest development for 2024/2025. Following the success of Tour M8 and the use of novel materials in Paradox Pro, we decided to combine their biggest individual strengths into one string.   Mako is stable, consistent, durable and reliable, as Tour M8. And just like Paradox Pro, it utilizes new additives to increase playability and feel. These additives are new to the tennis string industry, and, unlike Paradox Pro, they are non-metallic. They aid in feel, durability and provide Tour Mako with a mildly abrasive surface. We believe in a consistent and predictable launch for this Tour...

Amazing! As of a few weeks ago, our friends at TennCom have become official Grapplesnake distributors in Canada.  These are outstanding news, since customers will now enjoy shorter transit times, less expensive shipping, and no customs duties and brokerage fees.  Canada has been relatively difficult in terms of duties and brokerage fees, which are applied at relatively low shipment values. This makes the availability of Canada-based stock via TennCom a huge step forward. TennCom is an amazing YouTube channel with great technical info. Very good friends of us since the beginning. We are honored and very proud to welcome them as distributors as of...

Hello, International Customers! We enabled payments in local currency 15 days or so ago. This is actually to help you see the final price to be paid right away, in your currency, and not have to deal with varying conversion fees from the bank or whoever after actually paying.

This is all part of an effort of ours to make things easier for international customers who have to deal with extra shipping...

We are happy to announce that @MarkSansait has posted an awesome review on Tour M8 in his YouTube channel. Mark runs a great channel with lots of excellent content. He purchased our strings as any normal person would, and he was not asked to say anything. We did not know he was reviewing our strings. Mark liked them so much that, being the creative person that he is, he also decided to send us these nice pics of Paradox Pro that we are now proudly displaying on our website. Mark told us that a review on Paradox Pro is also coming soon....

We have made an agreement with DHL for better international rates to every zone in the world that's enabled though our website (Europe isn't enabled). This will significantly improve transit times and cut the cost of DHL Worldwide (1-4 transit days) in almost half, while providing a significantly faster service than the most economical USPS First Class, which sometimes takes close to a month. This is amazing news and a game changer for our international customers. One heads-up for Canadian players - no brokerage fees up to 2 sets. Anything more valuable will require these fees by DHL, so it...
