The amount of details these guys go through is amazing.
Very interesting behind the scenes look!
Interesting discussion about 2 vs 4 knots. I thought Head required 2-piece stringing (4-knots) on all their racquets!
Great interview! I've used Hawk Power and found it to be a comfortable string with a bit more power than my go-to, which is the Lynx Tour. To tame the power and get a bit more feedback, I raised the tension from my normal of 48lbs to 54lbs. I also found that the playability of Hawk Power falls off quicker than Lynx Tour. Lynx Tour remains my favorite.
Hi TW this head te3600 stringing machine compare with gamma 9900 which one will be better option to buy if you can explain
Great insight
Hi, thanks for video! I have reels of string so they do not come with the labeling tape used to put the date, type of string and poundage...what type of tape do you use?
Any online retailers to get the Head Stringing Machine aside from Apollo Leisure UK?
I currently play with this set up - gravity 2023 and Hawk Power. Looks amazing!
Does it play amazing?😅 what where you using prior to the new gravity?
@@elchanclascocina it plays very good although required some break in time, 1-2 hours.
Before that I played with 1st gen Gravity Tour ;)
It’s hard to see but did he start with the 3rd cross and work backwards? How did he tighten the 1st/2nd cross?!
Yes, started with the third cross, and then wove the second and first up to the top. Then left enough string at the top for a tie-off, and used the starting clamp to hold on the outside of the bumper, as most pro stringers don't use a starting knot. From there pulling tension on the first, second, third cross strings, and so-on with the rest of the cross installation. After finishing the crosses and tie-off at the bottom, he then pulled tension back on the excess string at the top, removed the float clamp and used the machine clamp, and then tied off. Troy, TW
Which stringing team is a player assigned to? The player's racquet manufacturer, or the player's string manufacturer, if they are different?
It may change from tournament to tournament, but normally a manufacturer will essentially "sponsor" the string room, so like for BNP HEAD is the stringer and then individual stringers will be assigned to players no matter what the player's brand affiliation is. Some players will get their racquets strung off site or privately or by themselves, so they wouldn't be using this service, but otherwise, all the players will be dropping their racquets off to the tournament stringers. Hope that makes sense!
Michelle, TW
What is "tubing" for a bad grommet (@~5:50)?
We sell this kind of tubing, which works well for racquets that have a cracked or broken grommet, in the case where you can't replace the whole bumper/grommet set, or it is discontinued. www.tennis-warehouse.com/descpage-TUBING.html. You just cut it down to size, and maybe use an awl to help guide it through the frame hole, and the string goes through the tube to protect it from the edges of the frame. Troy, TW
Hello guys, could you please ask the TWU Team to add these to the SPDB?
Hawk Touch 16g (1.30)
Hawk Touch 17g (1.25)
Lynx Touch 17g (1.25)
Sonic Pro Edge 17g (1.25)
It would be really helpful to people after Head polys!
Thanks for this video! Was the Wilson Pro Staff 97 v11 all black without CV that I bought from you guys a year or two ago a reissue from Wilson or old new stock? I can't remember Thanks 🙏
I'm not 100% sure I understand your question -- Wilson released the version with Countervail and then ended up releasing a version without Countervail, which is what you are referencing. Same specs, no Countervail technology. Not sure if I answered that correctly but don't think it was a reissue, although it may have been very similar to the black/red one they launched before Countervail. Hope that helps a little?
Michelle, TW
@@tenniswarehouse Yeah sorry I wasn't clear, I was confused because it was marked v11 and was all black, thanks Michelle that did answer my question, appreciate you 🙏 I have to many racquets and can't keep them all straight lol haha 😀 Thanks again!
All good, I totally understand! :) Glad that helped! It gets a bit confusing sometimes when they change the paint but not the tech or change the tech and not the paint and then everything in between haha
Michelle, TW
@@tenniswarehouse Yes, haha Thanks 🙏👍
I see a price chart. Are the players paying for stringing? Is the manufacturer or tournament paying?
Yes, most of the time, the players are paying for stringing! This happens at all levels of tournaments. We've heard players coming from a relatively good week at a smaller ITF tournament and having a silly amount of string debt to pay. It's not cheap, but necessary.
Michelle, TW
@@tenniswarehouseImportant to mention that men and women are charged the same for the strings (as well as for basically all the expenses), but are not paid the same 🤔
@@tenniswarehouse So how much are the stringers getting paid to do this? Is it by the racquet? By the hour??
@@elchanclascocina Important to mention that the women only play 3 sets :P
@@Alastairtheduke1 On the surface it would seem important to mention that. But then it also has to be mentioned that Men play more sets only in the 4 GS. On top of that, there are 9 M1000, 13 ATP 500, 38 ATP 250, 1 ATP finals, where men play best of 3, just as the women. Then if you add the around 180 Challenger tournaments and the hundreds of Future tournaments where men play also best of the 3.
So the reality is that men only play more sets than women in less than 1% of the tournaments, women get paid less in more than men in 99% of the tournaments and, to my original point, the expenses are similar between men and women in 100% of the tournaments. Not to mention all the previous preparation that is needed to get to that point: coaches, academies, travel, equipment, etc, they are similar for men and women. Seems to me the scale is still very wrong.
Is the head hawk power going to be available in Europe? Thank you.
It is currently available!

@Tennis Spin, is that you in the background around 1:05
What i can see as an amateur stringer and i want to do in the best way is, that the racket was stringing before with 2 knots. Why? Because head recommends to string this racket with 4 knots. What i know is only HEAD and YONEX reccomend to string there own rackets with 4 knots. It is an part of agreements.
Now, as a stringer, can you people PLEEEEEEASE stop getting your frames done by "the guy" with a budget machine, a few strings to choose from, no qualification and sketchy consistancy because hes "cheap".
Wait, I shouldn't be stringing my own rackets? XD
Ufc referee big john mccarthy is a stringer now
Wow you're excited to string a pros racket but it seems like an assembly line. Standing on feet all day has to be hard and concentrate on weaving the string on eyes is hard. I string my own and have no interest in stringing others
Machine clamp backed up by a triple starting clamp...OUCH - just RUINED the clients strings
How is it ruined? Do you put your starting clamp on the outside of the frame? I fail to see how the starting clamp behind a machine clamp "ruins" a string
Could not understand this dude saying what kind of string it was... Not the head rep but the tennis Warehouse dude.. What kind of string was it??
