Help Not Breaking Strings

[mr33]

Hi All

I am using Yonex RDS001 (Hewitts old one) and due to the square/rectangle head I constantly break strings whenever I shank in the square part. I am getting better at hitting more central, but none the less it is still very expensive :s I also am using a 16 Gauge Big Ace, which is nice and last 2-3 weeks. I also am looking at buying a re-stringer and using Big Banger Original 15 Gauge. Does anyone else have any tips that will reduce the amount of strings I break? It can be anything as long as it helps me not break strings.

Cheers

Do a search. Many threads on this topic

Normal when you shank polys.

Here is what I did : Use tubings in the head grommets. That almost stopped me popping strings from shanking, when I used polys.

mmm, I used to have the same problem with my old Fischers. Tried tubings as well, but that didn't help either. But since I string at home I didn't bother too much. With my new racquets no more problems.
