    Shocking thing is that, the Japanese player, Mori, is using AT900P with only 21lb tension......

    PS. PLEASE just concentrate on perfecting your technique rather than getting yourself obsessed with string tensions and hitting sounds.

    Is that Jung Jae-Sung at the top using an NS7000? WHAAAAAA!?!?! He's gone from that to a SW35... that's some switch.

    Interestingly if you look at the row below that, he also has an AT800 (not sure whether OF or DF) which has been requested to be strung at the same string and tension.

    My guess is that the NS7000 was his "off-day racquet" perhaps

    haha nice find but i think at the end of the day tension and racquet is really up to users preference and there's no "universal" setting applicable to everyone

    kinda late but: you know that JJS was using a ArcSaber 10 before Korea changed to Victor

    But those "epik" switches are not that special. for example Xie Zhong Bo [CHN] used a Yonex Ti-10, but he chose an N90. 2 rackets that are not the same at all or even close to eachother
