A friend at my club has a stringing machine and he wanted to start stringing for people so I gave him one of mine a couple weeks ago and it was fine. I gave him my second one today and I've just got a call from him saying it broke while he was stringing it!!! Is this a possible risk you take each time you string your racket!?!?!? Surely not!?
It didn't have much damage to it all really, just a very few scratches (very few to say it's 5 years old) because I never throw my racket. Even if you did occasionally throw your racket though you can't be risking that it breaks when you restring surely? It was a Babolate Pure Drive, before cortex, stringing with RPM blast at 58lb. Recommended tension on the racket says 55-62 i think so it's not like the racket's limits are being pushed.
I'm asking you guys because I don't know if I should be asking this guy to give me some cash for breaking my racket or not. Although it would be very hard to do because he is a friend and he didn't offer to give me anything either.
