Most stringers will simply hold the racket in one direction, pull the string with the machine, hold the string, pull the subsequent string.

Some will pull, hold, rotate the racket, pull from the other side, hold... and rotate back....

Thanks.

I mean where does your stringer start tensioning the main strings? From the middle? Or from one side as you described some stringers in Singapore?

With the racket standing on the handle, the vertical strings first... from the middle, if I don't recall wrongly...

Thanks.

Why do you need them? Stencil Ink shortens the life span of the strings.... not to mention free publicity for YY.

I'm sure my Kimoni Training Racket can take 40lbs. with no problems. I just strung it at 32lbs. and it didn't even budge...much.

Oh, but it's 145grams.

does spray paint smudge on the shuttle head?

**Shifty** · 04-19-2007, 04:49 PM

yes, but it won't change anything. thing, you get both a colourful racquet AND a colourful shuttle

note, won't smudge much

i get my nanospeed strung at 26 x 28 and my friend strings his mp100 at 32 lbs all around. ive strung my racket multiple times at high tensions and my head seems to be holding fine.

Yonex Nanospeed 9000x took me to 45 lbs with no cracks and scratches!

**UncleFester** · 04-29-2007, 03:27 PM

What the ****!
45lbs?
That's madness.

hold on..is there any difference in measurement of lbs in each countries?Assume if it's all the same,the highest tension i heard is about 32lbs(suggested)..n usually comes from some smaller brands..dont know if they can be strung at higher or not..since most rackets as i know can hold the over-suggested tension ..

LOL..45..if,the racket survived during the stringing process,then even a single musquito land will crack the whole thing badly..if u know what i mean..Man,tensions r not just numbers to play with..besides,why not 99lbs?
