    Hello Everyone,
    what can cause a racket (Y NS8000) to WARP:crying: after it has been strung (at 22lbs only) on a 6 point machine? I'm curious as the guy brought back his racket and asked me too many questions. I offered to re-do the string for him after putting the racket in a press for 4 days (w/o string) to flatten it. Thnx

    Was it like that when you had finished stringing it ?

    HONESTLY if it was it was not noticeable. Its is in fact NOT very noticeable. It was reasonably flat out of the press and now I did it again and it warped again. Ever so slight but when u know u look for it.

    seems like it a fault in the racket itself and for that to happen at 22 i would expect that at something alot higher

    Hi

    Is this NS8000 real?
    Is it broken?

    I have seen ns8000 warped only once - it was broken and repaired with a epoxy compound. And repaired slightly at angle :). It was holding 10 kg well - but looked very ugly with string surface not beeng flat.
