rexrioria Posted Friday at 10:47 AM #26 Posted Friday at 10:47 AM Always curious how maany people actually know you can request slightly lower tension on the crosses to widen the sweet spot a bit. Makes a subtle but real difference if you have elbow issues.
Runeevora Posted Friday at 11:08 AM #27 Posted Friday at 11:08 AM watched this while procrastinating stringing my own sticks actually, the 2x speed makes the tension pull look way smoother than it feels when you're wrestling with a poly at 60lbs lol. reminded me of last week when i zoned out and missed a weave on the third cross and had to redo the whole half of the bed... never again
ravenaelyn Posted Friday at 11:22 AM #28 Posted Friday at 11:22 AM id try to keep the clamps a bit further from the grommets when pulling tension, stops the string slipping and gives a more consistent bed tbh
vycarvi759 Posted Friday at 12:45 PM #29 Posted Friday at 12:45 PM I remember my old coach used to let me pull tension on his machine as a kid, and I snapped a set of gut strings instantly. Watching your video brings back that stress but also the satisfaction of seeing a fresh bed all tied off and neat.
Ashumtos Posted Friday at 04:43 PM #31 Posted Friday at 04:43 PM Never really thought about how much tension consistency matters until seeing it done step by step like that. Kind of wild how a couple pounds off can change the entire feel of the racket.
umbraosyth Posted Saturday at 06:26 AM #32 Posted Saturday at 06:26 AM Always cool seeiing the mains tension up that fast
vexvi17 Posted Saturday at 09:15 AM #33 Posted Saturday at 09:15 AM That weaving rhythm is so smooth at double speed, almost like watching a rally where every shot hits the sweet spot. I'd put my money on your string jobs outlasting most of the baseline grinders I bet on lately lol
Havenax Posted Saturday at 09:35 AM #34 Posted Saturday at 09:35 AM sweet video, that clamp work is super clean. if you ever deal with gut strings try a tiny bit of beeswax on the knots, stops them snapping so often and makes life way easier.
nyxwyn52 Posted Saturday at 09:47 AM #35 Posted Saturday at 09:47 AM Do you use different tension for mains and crosses on your own rackets?
Gauzeick Posted Saturday at 12:33 PM #36 Posted Saturday at 12:33 PM I watched this with my mornig coffee and it was oddly therapeutic. I never realized how much tension precision goes into every single pull, respect for the patience it takes.
kyryn Posted Saturday at 01:35 PM #37 Posted Saturday at 01:35 PM that cross weaving sped up is hypnotic. never knew i wanted to see racket stringig till now, looks oddly calming even at 2x speed
cedarosienne4 Posted Saturday at 02:51 PM #38 Posted Saturday at 02:51 PM Watching this sped up makes me appreciate hand stringing way more than those electronic machines, you can really see the rhythm and feel you put into each pull.
ladyly Posted yesterday at 04:04 AM #39 Posted yesterday at 04:04 AM this was weirdly calming to watch even sped up, never thought id be this into a stringing vid lol. do you ever mess around with hybrid setups or mostly stick to what the cients ask for.
nalorra Posted yesterday at 09:12 AM #40 Posted yesterday at 09:12 AM I love how methodical the whole process feels, it’s basically a meditation ritul at that point. Tried doing my own once and the tension completely humbled me, so respect for nailing it daily.
conckobone Posted yesterday at 09:40 AM #41 Posted yesterday at 09:40 AM bro this is actualy so satisfying to watch, never knew it took taht much work ? no cap
talkingbrush Posted yesterday at 10:59 AM #42 Posted yesterday at 10:59 AM nice video bro, seeing the stringing process is dope! ?? no cap
