    not veri sure.
    for mi,my thumb was feeling pain.
    cos the grip feel rite,but during play,i think i tend to grip harder without noticing it.
    so i wrap another round of thicker grip n problem solved.

    n5 length

    does any one know how long the n5 is? I can only find lengths for the even numbered "n" racquets.

    thanks

    I am a singles player that is mainly defensive but I'm trying to develop my harder hitting to. I want to upgrade from my APACS AP800 because I find it's a little bit hollow feeling. I tried a stiff shaft racquet on the weekend and loved it because I could generate more power and with 25lbs of tension I still found net work good. I am very interested in getting a Wilson Ncode2 racquet for the extra reach, solid feel & stiff shaft. The racquet I tried was a HiQua Nanoace 8000. Compared to the APACS it was very stiff but I'm not sure I like the fact that it just looks like a rebranded Yonex. I would rather a similar feeling Wilson. Maybe someone in here can point me in the best direction to getting one.

    I don`t mind the ncode Npro but I`ve not seen it before.I got my Ncode 90 last year and have not seen any ncode 90 in Singapore already.You have any source?
    I am also keen to own and try the N1.

    Hie all,

    I have been using wilson racquets all this while and i broke them all. Lately, i strung my HyperCarbon 6.5 with BG 68ti to only 25lb. To my suprise after one session of game, i found out that there was a crack at the 7 o'clock. The string actually pulled the (i dunno what is it called but the one the manufacturer put it at the hole) out two of them. I guess it might be due to improper stringing as i found there are two string at 10 and 2 oclock.

    My question is can i get replacement out of it??If not, i would wan to consider n4 or yonex Ti-10. Thanx for your comment.

    hi, did you tried ncode pro?
    it's a 2U racket, 92g +-2. I am interested in its performance as I am in need of a 2U racket.

    thanx m.Sharp, but i think its an older version of nCode series. n1-n6 is the latest one for wilson. nCode pro is white silverish, more stiff compared to the newest one...correct me if im wrong...thanx

    Wilson N-series tensions

    Hey Viper,

    Does the 28 tension you put in your rackets a Wilson specification ? I have an N6 and it had a print on it which said max tension is 24. I bought in the U.S.


    Thanks.
    LP

    High End would mostly mean high price(well, not all the time) but also high quality.
    2U and 3U is the weight rating, the smaller number is heavier like 2U is heavier than 3U.

    You might try looking around the discussion forums, lots to learn from there.
