Straight Sets Stringing Service

Enjoy the feeling of fresh strings and predictable ball flight off the string bed? Drop off and pick up your tennis racquets at 8 Milner Road Artarmon.

I use the latest techniques most commonly used by tournament level stringing while keeping your frame safe. I string on a brand new Wilson Baiardo, a Grand Slam and ATP level stringing machine, arguably the most advanced machine ever produced. If you are coming by foot it’s a 5-7 min walk from the station. If you are coming by car, you be able to drive up to my garage door (once I buzz you through

Restring vs Toroline. Two newer entrants to the string market and each taking string snapback to the next level.

Which set up do you prefer from these brands!?

If you find your grip too small, try upsizing your grip size with a heat sleeve (by a full size or half a size). Might save you from abandoning your stick for a new one.

You will have added more weight to your stick overall but it is offset by more manuverability.

An easy DIY if you want to do this yourself. You only need a heat gun (or hairdryer if you don’t have one) and an exacto knife. Just don’t be silly with the exacto knife like I was….🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️

Looking for a new string experience? Try Restring Zero today and compare the difference (especially for you hyper g users)!

Oddly satisfying knowing the measured unstrung specs you've just matched are 305.5, 305.5 and 305 come out as a complete match to 344 SW for all 3 racquets once strung up! One racquet with a balance differential of 0.3cm (other 2 completely matching) and the highest weight difference of 1.6g.

The Rafa Origin is a true beast. Can’t think of any modern retail racquet with such a high stock Swingweight.

Swing with caution!

Let’s play…

Who owns this racquet?

First person to correctly guess wins a free string job (free labour only, you pay for cost of string).

You can guess as many times as you like, but you can only guess once a day. I will drop clues each day until someone correctly guesses the person, so keep an eye on this post!

First clue is this picture. This person played in Wimbledon 2022 and made the quarterfinals!

Once I spot the correct answer I’ll reply to this thread!

Matching the Pure Aero VS with the new generation Aero VS tonight. Supposedly these sticks should share very similar specs, but this pair took some meddling with to get right.
Overall I think it was a success!

Pure Aero VS
W: 337.6g, B: 31.7cm, SW: 325.5pts

Aero 98
W: 337.8, B: 31.4cm, SW: 326

Insanity Is Doing the Same Thing Over and Over Again and Expecting Different Results...

If your new years resolution is to improve your game and private lessons are out of your reach, start small and think about adjusting your string set up.

Maybe you don't have the right string and/or tension for your style of play.
Maybe your strings are dead and you are putting more effort into your swings than you need to. Your strings are the only piece of your equipment (for 99.9% of the time hopefully :D) that touches the ball. Make them work for you!

I have a range of +50 different strings. Reach out for a chat and I will help you find the most suitable string for your game.

A client of mine decided that he enjoyed the Wilson blade v7 18x20 that he purchased two more. He asked me to match all 3 blades. To my surprise each came in with a maximum variance of 1 SW point, 0.2cm balance and 2.6g in weight. Something is wrong at the Wilson factory. What’s going on!? 🦄🦄🦄

16/04/2022

Those feels when you are bang on with your matching (* except for total 0.2g of static weight difference)

What to do with 4 very different spec’d racquets??

My solution:

When you are wanting to match 4 completely off spec racquets and it becomes impossible to match all 4, you can opt to create two sets of matching pairs. One matched pair for your most favoured playing spec and one for when you feel ultra fresh on a good day and can handle more SW.

05/02/2022

One of the most sought after specs us mere mortals have always wanted to wield. The Roger spec. I’ve been asked to match his specs of:
Weight: 365.5g
Balance 31.5cm
Swingweight: 346

Customised specs achieved:
Weight: 365.3g
Balance: 31.5cm
Swingweight: 345.5

Not a bad effort.

Are you playing competitive tennis, a racquet enthusiast, or feel you have a ‘favourite’ racquet out of the 3 or 4 same (supposedly) racquets in your bag?

Manufacturers make your racquet in mass production - unfortunately there are no ‘identifical’ racquets of the same model as each have slight variances with their build. Some manufactures are worse than others *cough* Wilson *cough*.

I am pleased to announce that I am now offering a full racquet customisation service. All diagnosis will be performed on a Head 3-in-1 diagnostic centre so you can be sure you will know your precise specs.

For details of what is offered, please visit the ‘Services’ tab. You no longer have to search for your favourite racquet when the pressure gets high. Let your imagination run wild!

Wilson Ultra Pro v3 from Wilson’s Pro Lab. Loving the slick glossy look! Strung on Kei’s set up. Babolat VS Touch NG (swapping for Wilson NG) and Luxilon Element.

The things I don’t enjoy very much with this hobby. Babolats are the worst with their grommet systems. But check out the new grommet colour scheme on the pure strike 2017 paint job!
