    I suggest you post a photo of it. Not 100% sure what you mean.

    I don't think it will, but he should have strung it through that bottom horizontal cross.....maybe he has lack of experience. :confused:

    And I can't believe he has three strings going through that one grommet??? WTF?

    that is the reason! i cant say he lacks of experience..because he is really good at stringing...he has been doing this for quite many years... but now i doubt that did he really know how to string a 80 hole racket because maybe he is used to those 72 holes rackets and forgot the actual way to string the latter one? >.<...will the part where 3 strings are in a hole spoilt because too much tension is depending on it?...

    I just strung my Meteor X70 and X80 using 2 piece stringing modified Yonex pattern. Still very easy. Maybe he likes to skip at the bottom like some other stringers I know.....try to make fancy. LOL

    can show me?... i wanna learn it! hahaha
    is it really ok? they said that this way of stringing is to make the string sound clearer and louder...it really does! haha and it reduces time of the string to drop pounds...
    anyway the place where 3 strings are in a grommet is the palce where he ended the tie..every rackets are the same when it is used as the end tie

    My racquet has 4 knots and I never tie off where there is already 2 strings there. Too much stress. If you want a lighter headed racquet then you should NOT be using Victor Meteor JJS....LOL

    maybe......but 4 knots is better to keep the tension to not dropping the lbs of the string.

    The Victor Meteors have a unique stringing pattern. You should print one out and take it to your stringer.

    The cross he skipped is pretty damn mandatory... I don't think any experienced stringer would string it like that, and even less leave it like that.

    A good hit at that particular spot on the racket could probably cause the strings to break.

    As for the knots, the "right" way of doing it for 4 knots is to have the bottom knots at b10 on each side, so 3 strings in the same hole (easily done if you enter your knot string and your cross string before tensionning the cross). b6 is ok, but it's a longer way from the last main to the knot and you have to get 2 strings to fit in b5, which can be quite tedious in some cases. It surely is not wrong to do it like that though.
