Hey guys,

im just wondering what tension people have their Kblade tours at and what they find to be the best?

Im looking at getting mine at about 52.. does this sound suitable?

Thanks, Josh :)

i string my kBlade with luxillon bb alu power at 57 on the mains and nxt tour 16 at 60 on the crosses. it suits me perfectly and i have a ton of control. of course, tension loss has probably made it 54/57 or so, but i feel no loss of control and power is all generated by me.

Why do you care what we found to be the best? Are we going to be hitting it? Are you sending it to us as a gift!?!? You shouldn't have.... ;)

Im stringing my K Blade Tours at 95.467lbs with 1.40g kevlar on the mains and Big Banger Original 15g on the crosses....really nice soft feel and great cupping of the ball....you should try it :)

Well my friend, some rackets i have played with and strung in the past can't handle certain string tensions due to the stiffness of the frame (even if it's between the recommended range) ;)

You couldn't handle it.

Tension performance, string performance, racquet performance, shoes, clothing, grips pre-stretch routine....

The list could go for days. All of that is relative. Just cause it does or doesn't work for you. Doesn't mean it will or won't for me or anyone else. so the odds of someone getting on here and telling you a tension they like, and having IT be THE ONE for you, are slim to none.

I first had a KBlade TOUr with 17 gauge Topspin Cyberflash at 58...it was ok for about a week, then got progressively worse.

Next, I tried Pro Hurricane Tour 16 gauge at 54 lbs., and after a 3 hour break in period, was hitting the best game of my life.

But, what i like may not be what is best for you, so i guess try some combinations out...
