    Hello dear all,


    I often have slipping problem when i strings my rackets (people in rance usually ask for BG65 which isn't easy ...).
    So the problem is that string always moves after big hits and doesn't settle well.

    $Do you guys have some special method to avoid this?


    Thank you

    around 11Kg (it's not for me, im currently using BG66 UM which is still slippery but much less than BG65).
    I've strung an ArcSaber 11 at 10.5Kg for a clubmate and he returned it to me saying that the string igs are always moving.

    play with bg65 25 mains and 27 crosses on manual crank machine and not too much slipping, I think it is normal

    LBS 25/27 = KG 11.5/12.5

    It is totally normal that strings move especially when it is a fresh strung racket.

    Indeed, i usually tell clients that the strings will move for a while, and if possible to let the racket sit unused for a week or so to let them settle a bit more. Otherwise, tell them not to use so much slice ;)
