Chen Jin's Old Yonex Racquet

I remember he used the Nanospeed 9000S for a bit, then switched to the Armortec 700.

 

I think it was a g-string and a b-cup

 

he used the arc10 before the switch of sponsorship to LN

 

Yep, forgot about the ARC10....

When he got the bronze medal at the OG2008, he had BG65 at 31x35lbs.

I think the chart shows the tension as a range, as in Chen Jin used a tension between 31 to 35 lbs as opposed to 31x35lbs.

It doesn't really seem unusual to have a 4lb difference, especially when you're going up to 30+ lbs....though most other have it just at 2lbs difference.

Either way, tension is at like 30+lbs.

 

The frame will distort and eventually collapse, even after being strung not long ago and in the middle of a match. There's a reason why the tournament stringers all string to uniform tensions for both the main and cross strings.
