Anyone else having this issue?

My 295VO2 had exactly the things you guys are facing....thought i'm the only one.After 8 hours on it(tin foil sound) i got mad and whack the incoming ball like crazy, and POP sound came out from nowhere!Only then i realised i had to hit the ball 1.hard enough
2.on the sweet spot
but still, dampener is advised! All in all...this samurai will be with me for a while!
strung with enduro pro 17G (50LBS)
Previously strung with Luxilon Pro 130 16G(48LBS)NOT RECOMMENDED!DEAD BED!
added 10 grams to the butt.
Will very much appreciated if anyone could recomment me some nice feel string for i'm recovering from tennis elbow!

To all of you that have been use both sticks, what is the best?, i have been playing for two years with TFight 320 and i can tell you i dont need any other raquet, great raquet with solid performance and with old fashion feel.

Your comments.

I recently obtained a T-Fight 335, the 16x20 version, and I was wondering, those who use it/have used it, how do you string it? I don't have much experience with the racquet and am trying to get a idea of what strings/string tension I can use to help get as much as I can out of this racquet.

I have been playing for 1 year with TF335 16x20. First I put a powerful multi string TF X-one 17g at 55 lbs but after a few months I tried my trusted Head RIP Control (at 55/53 lbs) that dropped the power level a bit but I gained more control. I lowered the tension to 53/51 lbs for some more feel and power.

I have one string with Unique Tourna Poly Big Hitter String 16 at 62lbs.

And the other strung with Forten Aramid Composite 16 (mains) and Gosen Polylon Ice 17 (crosses) at 62lbs.

I like the Big Hitter for more control.

Anyone wanting to let go of a 320 Tfight v02 max in grip 1/4.Not too worried about condition but I dont have much of a budget Im afraid as not working currently.... more time for tennis though (Does that make me a pro

Your comments.

The best of course is personal preference, in my case i Had both and ended up selling the vo2 model. just not the same racquet, the older model 320 had a thinner beam (my preference) and seemed more maneuverable, especially at net. both good quality racquets

[jcstennis]

going from an AK90 to a 320 VO2 Max... good idea? Love serving with the AK90, feel is very nice... but looking for larger head size (less shanks).

Normally use co-polys in low 50's... how do strings like Topspin Concept Pure, KB Pro Line II, Polystar Energy or even Lux ALU Power Rough play in this stick?

jcs I have been following your thread on Concept Pure and look forward to trying this string. I've been using Cyber Flash strung in the low 50's and have been very happy with it, it just doesn't last very long before it goes dead and balls start flying, but I guess that is to be expected with any poly. I strung up a couple with the new Topspin Cyber Red, but it's been so damn rainy here lately I've only got about 1 hr of hitting out of it, which is not enough time to formulate a decent opinion. I've also got a few packs of Tecnifibre Promix on the way... Very interested to try this one out and see if it is indeed a "soft" poly type string. Will report back with results on both as soon as I can get on a dry court

Have things dried up? Promix looks interesting... would like to hear how that plays...

I heard the Cyber Red is stif, is it stiffer than Cyber Flash? I just strung my TF 320 VO2 with PolyStar Energy, will play that later this week. (had a go with the TF strung with MSV Hex, it was not too bad)

[i suck at tennis]

A little drier these days... but my foot has a nice blister so I haven't really been playing much. I hit with the CyberRed for about an hour last week, it did not feel quite as stiff as Cyberflash to me, but I did not do a head to head comparison. Red definitely feels softer in the coil or when stringing but they are more similar feeling stiffness wise when hitting than I expeced. Its been a long time since I hit with Big Ace, but for some reason I am reminded of that string when hitting with the Red...and there is just some quality of BA (mainly the unique feel on impact) that I am not a fan of. I haven't had a chance to use the Promix yet, but I am really looking forward to it. Hopefully it holds up to my expectations

[i suck at tennis]

Almost forgot..let us know how the Polystar Energy matches up in the 320. I

also have a set of Pacific Tough Gut that I want to try, but I just have a feeling that I wont like it in this racquet. I may try that in my Dunlop 4D200 16x19, as that stick feels a bit underpowered, especially compared to the 320

Brief hit with PSE in the 320... not too bad! I took off the leather on the handle and used just two overgrips (a little lead added to handle) and got a ping sound going... needless to say, the leather is back on and sounds/feels a lot better...

need more time with PS Energy. Spin is there, but I am using the 1.20... feels a touch wiry... control is nice, not terribly powerful (as noted from others, but i have to consider the racquet the strings are in) will try the 1.25 next time.

[zagalab]

Ooh nice. I'm using the 320 V02 max.

String: Mains: Red code 57 lbs
Crosses: Black code 60 lbs

Lead at 12 o'clock, 3 and 9 o'clock. Lead also under the over grip. I don't use a replacement grip. Grip size is 4 1/4 but it is custom built up

LOVE IT!

I went through over 20 demos to find these beauties. These racquet's have it all. Sound was somewhat normal to me until I received my two hearing aids. For me I love the sound and it is pretty loud. Maybe I like it because I am somewhat deaf, who knows. I do know what I really like is the spin, and knife like precision I can hit shots with. The power on the serve is impressive also.

Anybody using (or used) a leather grip on their 320 VO2?? If so what did you think?

I put one on one of my sticks the other day, but the weather is so crappy I havent been able to hit with it yet... Boy does it feel nice in the hand though, you can feel the bevels MUCH better than a standard synthetic grip.

[the Town Sherif]

what type of leather grip did you use "i suck at tennis"??

I'm thinking of getting one myself for one of my two 320's

[jcstennis]

I felt that a leather grip helped dampen the ping/metallic response... and the racquet believe it or not felt more solid and more controllable.

Handle wrapped with Pacific ATP Pro Black.
