String basics
Not sure what you need? Here is a quick breakdown of the key things that affect how your racket plays.
Tension & power
- Higher tension = more control, less power
- Lower tension = more power, less control
- Most club players string too tight
- Start lower if you have arm issues
String types
- Polyester - durable, good spin, firmer feel
- Multifilament - arm-friendly, softer, more comfort
- Natural gut - premium feel, best power and tension hold
- Synthetic gut - all-round, budget-friendly
Hybrid setups
- Poly mains + natural gut or multi crosses
- Gives spin and durability of poly with comfort of gut
- Popular with intermediate and advanced players
- Different tensions for mains and crosses is normal
When to restring
- As many times per year as you play per week
- If you play twice a week, restring twice a year
- Strings lose tension and feel long before they break
- Dead strings mean less control, not just less power
