The Next Generation in Tension Tracking Technology
For Tennis Players at Any Level
Your Tension. No Guessing.
Every tennis player knows that strings lose tension over time. But how do you know when it’s time to restring? Or how close your strings are to breaking? For most players, it’s a guessing game. You wait until your racquet doesn’t feel right, your performance starts to change, your arm starts to hurt, or your strings finally snap.
That’s why we created the RTT--the Real Time Tension tracker.
The RTT gives you a live reading of your string tension, right from the bottom of your racquet handle. By monitoring how your tension changes over time, you can better understand the condition of your strings, gauge when they may be nearing the end of their life, and make more informed decisions about when to restring.
Why Guess?
Tennis is a game full of variables, adjustments, and unknowns. Your string tension shouldn't have to be one of them. With the RTT, know your tension in real time. Take the guesswork out of your strings and focus on what matters most, your game.

FAQ
Questions
How do I insert my RTT?
Do I need to reset my RTT after getting my racquet restrung?
Will my RTT work with any string type?
Answers
You start by removing the “Trap door” on the butt cap of your racket. Using the small screw driver provided in the RTT package, place the screw driver into the opening in the butt cap of the racket, and then pop open the “Trap Door”. Once the “Trap Door” is removed, line up the RTT in place of the Trap Door”, and push down on the RTT device until you feel it clicks into the butt cap.
Once the RTT has been installed, you no longer have to reset it as it will detect a new restring automatically.
The RTT was designed, tested, and calibrated for polyester and hybrid strings. If you use one of these string types, the RTT will display accurate readings. The RTT does still work with gut strings, however, it requires calibration using the calibration tool (sold separately).
