Ok, I am a noob at stringing. Yesterday, I Strung my NS9000X with BG80 @ 27/30lbs It went smooth as it can get, everything is fine, tension is normal but 5 hours later, when i took the racket out of my bag, the tension is GONE It felt like a 22lb string job I string with the stringing instructions beside me and no loose clamping and faults occured during i string Did anybody know or have any clue or experience of such events? (P.S. My other rackets are fine)
hmm... did it start to rain outside? I'm curious as to whether or not, humidity was a factor... or temperature for that matter... I think there were some discussions some time ago...
errr, do you have 2 ns9X's? you sure you tied off correctly? Strung every string? (some beginner forget to tension the last main before they tie off) doe you have a crank ro dropweight? just re-do and try again...chances are it's a freak occurence indeed
Wonder whether the racket remains in shape, or getting wider/narrower? If so, might be forgot to tension the last piece before knotting.
Sir, I did everything written in the books:crying::crying::crying: BTW, i was getting sick of that tension, so i decided to restring the racket AGAIN! Pray that everything will be right
ensure the knots are tight. people recommend double half-hitch but i do triple half-hitch to be safe. i remember my first knot took 15 mins.
Double pull Make sure the stringer is not making any double pulls on the strings (i.e. strings 2 lines and then tension). It may feel good at first, but after a couple hits, you will begin to notice a major loss in tension.
I believe temperature and humidity both can be factors. Somehow, once both index going high, I feel my racket is losing tension. Of course, not like 5lbs, but surely noticeable.
To be more accurate, provide us the sound pitch of what it is making - it will give us a better referece on how much tension actually dropped.
