    HI there,

    I am new here, I bought a yonex nanospeed 8000 racket two months ago and i stringed it with BG65Ti 24lbs but i broke the strings playing playing 4 times in a moth as we play only on Fridays...i restring that again with same strings and same tension and broke again with in a month..I am intermediate player and i love hard hitting and love playing offensive.

    I would love to know what type of strings and tension you guys will recommend me which are more durable, long lasting for a player who love offensive hard hitting game.

    I have given BG65 a thought and want a little thicker then BG65Ti, i guess , but i m not sure I will appreciate your responses as soon as possible..
    Thanks much

    Id say go for bg80's, cant go wrong with them =]. NBG95's are another option. It has great durability and when you first hit with it, it has a nice ding sound to it. Only problem is, when you start losing tension..it feels a bit dead and takes away the feel.

    take a look at dinks string guide it has some great options for what ever youre looking for. Its also nice that he updates it every once and a while so its fairly up to date. bg80s are good for power, so are bg66, but they both lack in durability esp the 66's. 65's are very basic strings and its probably time to move away from them. 70s are good if you still want some durability yet some better performance than 65s.

    also look outside of yonex. ive been playing micro power by ashaway and its a good powerful string, good durability but not quite as powerful as bg80. next im going to try ashaway Micro Legend. NBG are simply too pricey for me.

    If he thinks 65ti is not durable enough, then 80 will be a nightmare... :eek:

    Agree, make sure the sting did not break near the top. If so, it is a miss hit and you need to improve your technique.

    Ashaway MP is a fine string. It is right after BG85. Best string for the price IMHO. It is softer than BG85 and better repulsion than BG80.
