Hi I was wondering which tension I should string my racket. I use arcsaber10 and planing to buy yonex nanogy 98 for strings. But i'm not sure how much tension the string can hold. I'm more of controling the birdie than power. So i was thinking of a higher string tension. Please reply!
Also depends on your own technique. If you are an average player, don't go for high tension because you won't be able to generate power without the right technique.
well, if you want to experiment, i recommend that you only go up 1-2 pounds from your original tension at a time.
Yonex NBG98 JP Hi samuello1994, If u have made a search on this string review, u may find tha ants had done a review on this string before. He used Yonex AT 900T strung with 30 lbs with YY NBG98 JP and tested it for 4 hours. If u read the review, Yonex rating for this string: Durability: 7 Repulsion: 10 Control: 8 Hitting sound: 9 Shock absorption: 8. Normally rackets which are able to hold high tension can easily strung up to 30 lbs. However, whether this string can last for how long will depend on player's strength, power and how frequent he/she uses it. If you are a very strong and powerful player with strong arm,then 30lbs should not be a problem.Arc saber 10 can easily withstand 30lbs. Lee
Strung the new string with in 1-2 lbs difference of your current one, unless you think the current tension is way too high or low for you. The max tension a string can hold, usually is more than the racket can hold, and way more than our shoulder/elbow can hold.
Thanks that really helped a lot. I think il go for 28 . Hey if you have a racket and you dont knwo what tension you have it in, is there a way to check? Cause when i first got my acs10, i didnt know which tension the guy stringed it at.
What is your skill level? Its not worth using that high of a tension if you cannot handle it and. I know a person who is using 28 and using plastics and the person is like beginner/intermediate level - definately not good. Sort of making a bad impression of himself because of the advanced people not using that high tension. You know... that idea. Your strings won't last too long if you're using plastics.
28lb of tension + plastic shuttles = killer for the string, and mostly killer for your joints (elbow, shoulder, etc) as well.
ROFL! What Lazyboy is referring to is the feedback because the string is tighter. If you do a mis-hit (depending on how bad it was) you could potentially injure it. If you have experienced a "shock feedback" on your arm on a bad mis-hit, it's something like that, but not as bad as getting it injured and you having to be out for some time.
I have trouble to understand what you are trying to say. Anway, if you think you are more than capable, feel free to try. If the jump indeed is a huge one, then, take it slow, and don't push to the risky area.
