STRINGS

BREAK IT!

Change your strings only when they break.

POWER IT!

Lower tension and a multifilament string will aid power.

FEEL IT!

A thinner gauge string with a low to medium tension.

SPIN IT!

Combinations of monofilament string, especially with a shaped/angled bevel and a string tension tighter than average. 

COLOUR IT!

Have a coloured string, two colour options or a rainbow effect to brighten up the frame.

LOOSEN IT!

Lower tensions will result in more power and better feel, plus it will lower vibrations transmitted to the arm.

TIGHTEN IT!

If you want more spin and control then use a higher than average tension.

CONTROL IT!

Use a thicker gauge in a monofilament string at a higher tension to create a regular response to your ball striking.

GRIPS & ACCESSORIES

REPLACE IT!

Change a worn grip when you have your next restring.

PAD IT!

Add an overgrip or two to your main grip, or put a replacement grip over the existing one.

THIN IT!

Take the main grip off the racket and replace it with one or two overgrips to make the grip  size smaller.

SHAPE IT!

Add strips of tape under the grip to shape/contour the grip to your personal specifications.

VIBE IT!

Add a vibration dampener to the frame and add more padding to the grip to reduce racket vibration to your arm.

STICK IT!

Use a tackier overgrip to ensure a firmer grip when striking the ball.

DOUBLE IT!

Extend the grip on the racket to allow you to have a double handed grip on your backhand.

Customer Reviews

I highly recommend Phil's racket stringing service. Not only does he do an excellent job, his turnaround time is incredibly quick. My daughter plays at a very high tennis level and is extremely fussy when it comes to her strings etc, and she is definitely more than happy with the service. A*

Phil provides a fantastic stringing service. He is both knowledgeable and professional. He advised on the various types of strings/tensions/gauges available and their relative merits. His pricing is clear and turnaround time is quick. I thoroughly recommend.
