    Do not start doing that! I just broke one of my SW35 2 days ago and need to find another one as a replacement!

    Victor you betrayed
    the first one, from a mis-timed smash and the frame just suddenly collapsed. the second one happened just last night, i broke strings and continued smashing then went to take off the strings and noticed that the strings were difficult to removed then saw the cracks... both are 4u

    I have one similar condition as your 2nd picture. Its seems like hairline cracks between the grommets, same exact area. Mine's 3U and still on first string, merely 27lbs.

    Sent a js10 4u with similar condition for claim previously. Victor happily told me they unable to identify what issue with the js10 because it wasn't break yet so I would not bother.

    Yea i agree with you the original is a tank, the hypernanos ltd do feel like tanks just that i didn't expect the grommets on the control to sink it and develop a few hairline cracks, the strings are still perfectly intact. I guess it might just be a batch problem

    I've lost 2 800P's but they were down to big clashes and strung high.

    What kind of tension are you guys stringing your Ps and Cs to have caused the grommets to sink into the frame? I am starting to worry for my P.....
