Another different type of stringing pattern. I don't know what they call it. I took it from AT700.com. The purpose is for sharing and learning. Sent from my CLT-L29 using Tapatalk
Looks like a pretty common 1-piece pattern. Short side doing bottom four strings, long side the rest bottom up. Edit: No, wait. The way the arrows are drawn in it doesn’t make sense to me. Do you have any further advise how the schematic has to be read?
Your thought is correct. Short side doing bottom four strings(1 down, 1 up, 2 down). Sent from my CLT-L29 using Tapatalk
Then I don’t think it’s even worth bothering with. Why doing that useless loop instead of going one hole up with the short side and doing the bottom five strings in one go top down. Far easier and straight forward. At least I don’t see any advantage of forcing those 4 strings there.
Good point. Will string racket using this pattern next time and see how it goes. Sent from my CLT-L29 using Tapatalk
I had to split up the post into two parts, so here's the more common Adidas racket`s stringing pattern. The Difference between the new and the old pattern of the A5, A3, ... is the missing top cross in the newer pattern. I'd say: If your machine allows you to put it in, do it, otherwise, don't. There also was an older pattern for the Überschall rackets (F1, F2, F3, F5), doing all the mains, tying off at the top (like Babolat), then just doing the crosses bottom-up. The factory strings still use these pattern, so it should be totally fine to do it (only my opinion). I honestly don't understand why they changed it. There's nothing wrong with tying off at the top in my opinion. I hope it helps.
And the (probably) less common racket's stringing pattern from the Adidas stringing brochure. I hope I didn't miss anything.
Very nice idea, but i don't like it. On weak frames i reduce the tension on the last two mains, that the string will not cut into the frame. The knot do also a good job for a less tension on the last mains. With this pattern, you have a higher tension on the last two mains. There is also no need for a higher tension on the last mains. Here is an example from @kakinami for a weak frame
The stringer in the video pulled last 2 mains together, so I believe it doesn't put stress on the corner frames. Sent from my CLT-L29 using Tapatalk
Yes, saw it. But the tension is a lot higher, because there is no knot. When you tie a know you will have a loss of the tension of at least 2 kg (4 lbs) on the last main(s). And when I have such problems with weak frames, it happens when racket was strung (while play/idle), not while stringing. If you have less tension the risk is also less. As said, i like the idea a lot. I love it, when stringers try something different and use their brain.
I will string my racket using this method next time to find out more the playability of the string. Sent from my CLT-L29 using Tapatalk
I don’t change the tension on the last two mains because I use one set of string to do the racket. I don’t tie off and then use a separate set for the crosses. I come out through hole number 12, jump up to grommet 14 and then start on the crosses and work my way up the racket and tie off. I come out through grommet number 12 on the other side of the racket and move up to grommet number 13 and work my way down the racket and tie off.
Here is another unique stringing pattern. Below is the YouTube URL: Sent from my CLT-L29 using Tapatalk
many new patterns now ... not very active since 2014 till now, and during this pandemic would love to try new pattern ...
Good lord, now that is a difficutly one. Does it say anything about the expected benefits? I don't really see any. It does have a really neat and clean look on the outside though, especially given that it's a 2-piece pattern.
I am not sure if he mentioned the expected benefits as I couldn't understand whole explanation in the video due to lack of Chinese Mandarin. Might need help from other member who fluent in Chinese to tell us. Sent from my CLT-L29 using Tapatalk
