Hi everyone, I recently was able to purchase a stringing machine and have settled on a method that I think is really solid, but wanted some feedback from some more experienced stringers. The method is as follows
Mains: Yusuki Method to start the mains, then go 3 on one side 4 on the other, next alternate two and two until you get to the last two mains. Add two pounds of tension to the last two mains, tie off using Parnell Knots.
Crosses: Use the Yonex Stringing Team Method, where the 2nd cross is woven first, then double back into the first cross, leaving enough string to reach the tensioner and securing the first cross with a starting clamp outside the racquet head. Weave the third cross next and pull tension on the second cross. After this continue down weaving one ahead each time. Add two pounds of tension to the last two crosses, then tie off using Parnell Knots
Misc. Notes: I normally tension the crosses at 2 pounds less than the mains
What are your opinions on this method?
