    :) Good day to all, I’m just wondering if what is the max or supposed to be max tension of arc saber 10 because the sticker of the racquet says that it can only reach until 24lbs, however the person selling the racquet told me that it can reach up to 30lbs. can it really hold 30lbs with out stress or some sort.


    Thank you every one MOREPOWER

    Heard from a coach that professional player racket is different from those we buy. Wonder if there is any truth in this. He said that pro racket can take higher tension than those we buy and Yonex racket quality is deteriorating.

    So high lol!!

    More exactly, what the user wielding it can handle is more of the real question.

    this is completely right, the racket will hold 38 tension although it might brake :p i string around 30-32lbs and have never broke a racket from too high tension. i have a few friend with arc10's and they all string 29-32 with no problems.

    Recently I was testing the NBG98 strings (JP version) on both my Arcsaber 10 3g3u. I strung one at 28x30lbs and one at 30x33lb. Tension was fine for racket. Arc10 is very strong :) Am sure I could push it to 35lb but its a risk I might loose sleep over :(
