Difference between tension 24 x 26 and 25 x 25

**jerby** · 08-03-2007, 01:36 PM

Hi JC,
Thank you for reviving this thread, it's just as funny as it was the first time I read it

as for 22x22 vs 22x24: the first is what is commonly referred to as 22lbs tension, the later as 24lbs.
So 22x24 is effectively higher, the other difference is frameshap. 22x22 is msot likely to be a "short and fat" rackethead while the 22x24 is less distorted (were talking mm's here, so don't panic

)

Illpjlau,
CD has been banned some time ago...that's why he's been so quiet...
and please, keep me out of any internet pissing-contests

It might be fun to read, it was frustration for those who try to make sure new members do not get he wrong ideas. Thanks to Kwun for turn off the crap so we don't need to hear those pissing sound and keep flushing the toilet for him.

PS, CD6 keep missing the toilet because he is too short. (height, and body part)

Won my friend with a yonex B-450 low torsion steel with one string that snapped skill matters more until your at such a level that requires the use of equipment to further improve your play.

while i may not agree with cd6 for just about everything,one thing i have to agree with is that 2 different strings can get equal power, after all lindan uses bg65, peter gade uses bg80 and taufik uses bg66 and they can all smash 300km/h

i don't think you can smash the hell out of someone outside of the beginner level using 15lbs of tension and standing still... unless of course your level is that much higher than theirs... i remember seeing my highschool gym teacher beat a beginner sitting in a chair using a $15 racket with default strings..

also, anyone can base-line clear.. i don't think tension matters there. i can clear using an improperly strung racket (i didn't realize my clamps were broken, so sue me), i think the tension was about 15lbs (if i'm lucky)... sadly i strung other people's rackets with those broken clamps, but they could all clear just fine

all in all i have to say, equipment does make a difference, unless playing someone weaker than you. nobody can be consistant using crappy stuff. someone ranked 1st would lose to number 2 if #1 was using that $15 racket and #2 was using the best stuff in the world.
