    yes you can tension it to more than 24lbs. The tension it says is just a recommended tension.
    make sure you give it to an experienced stringer if you are tensioning it to over the recommended settings.

    In some region, the rec. tension also serves as the guideline for warranty. If beyond this tension, the distributor has the right to void the warranty.

    Of course when you string your racket beyond the recommended tension, it will also decrease the lifespan of the racket. :(
