Frequently asked questions

What makes strings so vital?

  1. Offer your shots increased force.
  2. Looser tension - More Power.
  3. The tighter your string, the better control you have over your shots

Why do you need Change strings Often?

  1. They will gradually lose tension, which will affect the player's ability to control the ball.
  2. They start to lose their performance traits.
  3. Strings become less durable, providing players a milder reaction.

How frequently should they be changed?

Do you know that it's advised to restring your racket at least once every three months?

According to the general rule of thumb, you should get your racquet restrung as frequently as you play in a week. Therefore, you should restring your racquet every four months if you play three times a week

  1. Gauge - Verify the string's thickness. The string becomes thinner as the gauge increases.
  2. Tension - how firmly the racquet's strings are strung. Pro players go with greater tension, and beginners experience less.
  3. Choose the string based on

    • Frequency and duration of play
    • Style of play
    • Level of competition

Using Visual Indicators

  1. Broken string
  2. Notching - The middle of your racquet develops notches where the strings meet.
  3. Fraying - made up of minute fibres that will fray with time.

It begins to lose tension as soon as it is inserted into the racquet and continues to do so with each passing second and each stroke. The strings expand more upon impact as tension decreases. The ball remains on the strings for a longer period of time as the strings widen.

When the ball hits the strings that are loosen it goes longer and wider. You start messing with pretty fine equipment to try to fix your unexplained condition since you are unable to identify the exact fault that has caused your stroke. We are here to fine-tune your racket in no time and get your racket the full power you want on the court!

If you don 't restring frequently enough, you'll likely spend the majority of your game adjusting for the shifting string tension rather than perfecting your swing.
