badminton main strings lower tension than cross strings

I have a fiddling question about the tension of string on a noise
usually people would say that they string their noise at around twenty-25 pounds...
but does that utilise to the cross department or the master section??
Why would Yonex have recommendation on stringing tension for main and cross?
What would the person that is doing the stringing do when u said that u want to cord your noise at 22 pounds??
will he exercise that for both master and cross?
Thanks
Hello Toby,
Every bit a certified Yonex stringer. The 22lbs. means that you lot tin can string your racket 22lbs on both main and cross. Simply I recommend yous to string your dissonance 20lbs on the main and 22lbs cantankerous. Why? It's because stringing the racket the same tension on both will add together pressure to the main string itself forcing the rackets top strings to cavern in more often. And then by reducing to pressure level from the chief string will shape the racket correctly when pulled on the cross a petty tighter. You will meet the shape of the dissonance form correctly.

Cheers,
jerome

For a while, I tried stringing my graphite racquets 24 mains, 24 cross. Information technology made no deviation to the shape of the racquet and I strung them over and over again like this. The shape is notwithstanding OK despite the "not-standard stringing method".
I cannot say the same for racquets witha metal caput.
Your stringing methods are basically made at your ain volition. I was just saying of what some of the top players of the world and coaches are recommending. It's basically upwards to yous to make the phone call.
did you use the side supports? if y'all use the side support, it is not neccssary to use higher tension for the cross strings. however, most shops don't utilize them because they get in the way and slow them downwards.
I don't use side supports. So I tin can freely string on whatever tension I desire.
I believe your are right. One time I forgot to add one
more pound to the cantankerous after finishing the main
cord, (and I was too lazy to start over), my Ti10
head because too 'fatty' - the head was too wide and
information technology became shorter. After using the raquet merely
once, I had to cut the strings, and did the chore again.
I have been using 24/25 Lbs. Peradventure I volition try 23/25
to encounter if the raquet heads will be more than cute
I am wondering why people use twenty/22, because I ever
feel that raquets at that tension level are too soft,
and the sound is very deadening. Do y'all take whatsoever suggestions
or stance on this effect?

By the way, at 24/25 Lbs, the lifetime is very short,
especially in this cold weather (I have killed 3
strings in the past 2 weeks).

One of the trouble is - 22 lbs in store A doesn't mean the same as 22 lbs in shop B. Even some said that they are using computerized machineries or stuffs like this, I yet found that there are significant variation sometimes. As a event, I always attempt to cord my racquets at my favorite store (which doesn't have computerized machineries at all).

As a non Yonex certified stringer, i say using college cross tension than chief is a poor man manner to 'partially' re-shaping a racket. There are and then many dissonance types of different shapes and materials, how do yous know what is the optimum principal to cross tension ratio for each racket? Yonex and carlton akin didn't conduct whatsoever experiment on this. Who is to say 2 lbs difference is a right combination? On some racket i've strung in the 27 to 30 lbs range, yonex stringing procedure don't apply anymore.

ricky, very proficient observation. Stringing is an fine art. The computerized stringing machines does, still, help incompetent stringers to overcome some of their mistakes, merely tin can't beat an experienced stringer with an older machine. I have seen many many rackets given to me for restringing because it was strung improperly by big sport shops.

I used to use side supports but I just tried the same tension Mains and Cross as an experiment and no problems. Information technology helped that I was using affordable racquets at the time so if any "warping" of the caput occurred, it wasn;t a big deal.
Libation and Ricky have skilful statements:
I myself don;t trust a estimator controlled stringing machine. However, we have no bear witness that any one method is more consistent than some other.

Machines vary from shop to shop.
Stringing techniques vary too - for the low tensions (arbitarily 23lbs and less) using the 2lbs more tension for the cross is OK. How nigh at the high tension, (27lbs or more than)? A lot of stringers will pull the strings at the sweetness spot at the higher tension but the more peripheral strings will be pulled at a couple of pounds less.

I would be interested to know if Jerome does this technique if asked to cord a racquet at >27lbs.

Thank you
Truthful! Merely, what is the lifespan of your strings earlier y'all pause it? I accept researched this stringing methods for years and take ask some of the top players in the globe of how they like their rackets stringed. And they have concluded that certain players have dissimilar stringing methods than others. Still, yous exercise not take to bash wether I'm a certified stringer or not. I do not capeesh such a remark. I am here to help not to be judged by you. Thank you!

jerome,
i think in his mail service, cooler meant that *he* is a non-certified stringer, he wasn't endeavour to say whether y'all are or not...

btw, i take strung my own racket every now and so, with varying success. what are the secrets to information technology stringing a good dissonance?

It'southward nice to meet this forum is so agile and house many contributors. As for jerome remark about me bashing him, no thanks, i accept no inclination to exercise that. If my previous post came across that fashion, well, information technology wasn't meant to. I also don't doubt u r a yonex certified stringer. Since i'k non a certified yonex stringer, i wouldn't know what yonex teaches anyhow, but that doesn't mean there isn''t other and better way to cord a dissonance. You said yourself that peak players take their personal preference on stringing which is perfectly truthful. However, virtually pro players are skilful in playing badminton but not stringing their rackets.
On your question about lifespan of my stringing, it depends on what tension the clients had specified, and they how long to expect. They also look me to restring their rackets the next time, that's how long.

kwun, thank you for the support.
Undercover of stringing a good racket is easy**. The flim-flam is doing skilful stringing on a bad (cheapo) racket.

** Easy simply however hard to put it in words
