*UPDATE* Video review from ATP Touring Coach:

Here's another video playtest and review, this one by ATP/WTA Coach David Emery

Genesis Black Magic 17g

Babolat RPM Blast (17g)

Player String ratings from Stringforum.net

Summary:

Genesis Black Magic is a great poly string for the players who thrive on power, control and hit a flatter ball.

Player reviews from Stringforum for the 17 gauge have been very positive. Give it a try and I think you'll find that it is a great value.

Babolat's RPM Blast is also available on sale for those who demand the extra spin at the cost of durability and price ($270/reel).

I would encourage players to try both and list their impressions of both strings.
