As I´m going to get my raquet (stated in header AND just to make sure that everyone knows: this is made of carbon...this isn´t one of the new TI-mesh raquets) stringed I´d like to state U guys a couple of Q´s. Since it seems that you know your stuff here it goes:
1. Why is it stated on the Yonex´s homepage that this raquet ought to be stringed
SR Main: 14-16 lbs. (6-7 kg) Cross: 16-18 lbs. (7-8 kg)?!? From what I have read I have understood that most of you have this raquet stringed/tensioned to 20-23 pounds and my raquet was tensioned to a mere 19 pounds (which is more than Yonex recommends) this really makes no sense to me. Since I´m new to this side of the business all I´d like to know is: why Yonex says that this raquet ought to be tensed to only 16-18 pounds?
2. How high can this raquet be tensioned? How many lbs/kg is the maximum, so that one doesn´t need to fear that the raquet will snap a part.
3. What are you thought of Ashaways Micro Power, would it be a sensible choise for this raquet. I´ve been thinking that I´d get my raqued stringed with that and to ´bout 22 pounds. How does that sound?
LOL. I know I must been sounding awfully stupid, but I hope that some of you find the time (and heart) to answer to me. And to those of you who will answer: All the insight/info is really welcome, even the possible critique!
