String Tension Increase
You guys think it is ok to move from 23lb tension to 25lb tension, is it easy to adjust to.. will i get any power from it or will i loose power. I find 23lb a bit bouncy

at 23lbs, more power generated from stringbed
at 25lbs, less power from stringbed compare to 23lbs, but with more control

i restrung my racquet about 3 weeks ago, i like 23lbs its pretty good, i can get alot of power from it. But you guys think i should try 25lbs next time i restring. I've just started playing badminton 3 months ago and trying to improve i got a coach and stuff, i would say i'm a advanced C level player, but i got alot to learn. You guys think that it is too early for a beginner (3months) playing at 25lbs..

No need to restring if he can't handle it, just use the hitting the knee trick. Originally Posted by LazyBuddy
