A guy I string for brought me his Khamsin yesterday after popping a string. I last strung it June and it did not look like this ... lol ... at that time I recommended he get a new head guard, which was nearly worn away then, for me to install and put duct tape over it to protect the structure until he did. Guess what he didn't do. With him standing in front of me, I pulled away the layer of duct tape he used and this is what we saw. Yikes! I was surprised it had not exploded out on the court.
Another view . . .
There were to small hairline fractures running between three grommets on the inside (not pictured). The entire portion was pulled down inside the frame. When I took the string out, the sunken portion expanded up.
