GROMMET REPLACEMENT
Protect your racket and your strings with a fresh grommet strip today! Has your grommet strip come off, or is it simply looking a little worse for where? Either way, we can replace the vast majority of modern frames bumper strips with a fresh one. These usually have to be ordered in, but delivery is typically next-day. Give us a call to book yours in now! WHAT KIND OF STRINGS SHOULD I USE? Strings contribute as much to your play as your racket does. There are lots of strings to look at, and if you pop in-store we will happily discuss our range. But for now, we will identify the key characteristics of each type of string.POLYESTER: the most popular type of string currently in use. Spin-friendly and controlled. Designed for all player levels but advanced players in particular will appreciate the consistency. More durable.MULTI-FILAMENT: a softer kind of string. Will generally result in a plusher, more comfortable feel compared to polyester. Easier access to power and better for players who suffer from tennis elbow but generally lacks a bit of durability – especially for advanced players who can hit the ball hard.SYNTHETIC GUT: a cost-effective string. It generally feels closer to a multi-filament than a polyester but won’t be quite as comfortable. A good option for players who only play occasionally and don’t hit the ball too hard. WHAT TENSION SHOULD I CHOOSE? Tension can have a big impact on your play. Generally, a lower tension will result in more power, whereas a higher tension will result in more control. Most rackets have a recommended stringing range (usually between 50-60lbs). An average tension in this instance would be 55lbs (which is what we string our demo rackets at). Beginner to intermediate-level players should usually string at average or below, typically in the 48-55lb range. More advanced players can experiment at higher tensions but remember; it’s not an exact science. Some players just like the feel of a looser stringbed and vice versa. A good rule of thumb (and one that professional stringers on the ATP and WTA Tours abide by) is to string your racket as low as you can whilst still being able to control the ball. For some players, this will be 40 lbs, for others, 65 lbs. You just need to figure out what is right for you!FAQHOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO STRING MY RACKET?We always aim to return your racket on the same day or next i.e., within 24 hours. There may be some occasions when stringing is unusually busy, like on school holidays or during Wimbledon. On these occasions, our stringing time may get a little longer, but we will still get it back to you as soon as we can!DO YOU STRING BADMINTON AND SQUASH RACKETS? We certainly do! We string both Badminton and Squash rackets and supply a number of strings for them. WHAT IF I HAVE MY OWN STRINGS? We will happily string for those players who prefer to use their own string. In these instances, you will only be charged for labour, which is £17.50 per racket (£22.50 for Badminton rackets). DO YOU HAVE STRING 'X'? We aim to stock all the most popular strings on the market. However, sometimes strings do run out, or an option may not be in stock. If you have your heart set on a certain string that we don’t have in, chances are we can order it for next day. For this you will be charged £25 + the cost of the string. DO I PAY ON DROP-OFF OR COLLECTION? We ask all customers to pay at drop-off. This allows for the smoothest possible process and means that you can collect your rackets quickly and easily!HOW OFTEN SHOULD I RE-STRING MY RACKET? This varies person-to-person. Heavy-hitting players will naturally break strings regularly, and therefore require new strings once or twice a month! For most people this is overkill. For your average recreational club player, re-stringing the number of times you play a week in a year is the general recommendation. For example, if you play twice a week, then aim for two restrings per year (or once every 6 months).
