    I've heard a lot of you guys talking about using different strings on a racket. I'd like to ask is that are there any noticeable differences if you string a racket at different tensions?

    Do you mean effect of changing string tension? Or variation in crosses compared to mains, like 25 for mains and crosses vs 24/26? Or do you mean a hybrid of 2 different strings for mains and crosses?

    I heard from a stringer that when you string the cross high than the main, it would be better for slices and drop shots. When you string the main higher than the cross, it would be much more powerful for the smash. Didn’t try it myself though
