GrappleSnake Tour Mako Single Set (1.25)

Tour Mako is a round 1.25mm poly with a mildly abrasive surface, designed around feel, controlled power and a predictable launch. The Teal version is the softer, more responsive reference point within the Mako family.

Performance profile

The round geometry keeps launch consistent and allows smooth string movement, while the lightly textured surface adds extra grip without turning Mako into an aggressive shaped string. It sits on the softer end of GrappleSnake’s range and offers more accessible depth than Tour M8 or Tour Sniper.

What it feels like

Responsive, pocketing and lively for a performance poly. The Teal formulation is particularly well suited to firmer frames or players who want a less severe response while keeping the control and durability expected from polyester.

Best suited to

• Players who want a softer, round performance poly.
• Firmer racquets that benefit from extra feel and pocketing.
• Players who prefer predictable launch over aggressive shaped-string bite.
• Full beds or hybrids where a smooth, responsive string is useful.

Setup guidance

GrappleSnake recommends starting approximately 2 lb above your usual polyester tension. Use that as a reference point rather than an absolute rule and adjust for frame, pattern and preferred launch.
