Badminton Racket Restring Overview
Our professional racket restring service offers ST Badminton Academy’s students the assurance of consistent tension and durability guaranteed. Strung by a certified stringer using the best stringing machine available, our students can expect only the highest quality professional stringing for their rackets. A poor-quality stringing job can adversely affect a student’s performance once they have reached a certain level in badminton.
Thus, our head coach, Mr. Eric Chuar, has sought to deepen his knowledge of professional racket restringing and has become certified in this field to better guide our students in making informed decisions. His intentions are solely to ensure our students receive the best quality stringing in the long run, not for business purposes as this service is exclusive to our students.
1.2
Is Professional Stringing in Badminton Important for Students
Yes, the proper stringing of a racket is important for a player’s performance. According to our certified stringer, a professional player’s drop shot, shooting lob, and netting skills all depend on the “feel” and bounce-back response from the string tension. If a racket is strung by a casual stringer without much knowledge of stringing, it can cause coordination issues for the player due to inconsistent or incorrect tension.
Additionally, the stringing method may be incorrect, the machine tension head tolerance may be out of accuracy, or the stringer may not know the proper stringing technique, such as knots and pulling the string too fast, which can damage the quality of the string. There are many possibilities that can cause mistakes on the court if the racket is not strung properly.
1.3
What if the Racket Restring is Bad Quality
Poor quality racket restringing can cause discomfort for the player during badminton play. The racket may be more prone to cracking if the wrong stringing method is used, and the string durability may be compromised, leading to more frequent breakage.
Overlapping of strings, as shown in the attached image, is a common issue. In addition, players may experience an increased chance of mistakes as they adapt to the new string tension and feel, leading to a negative impact on their overall performance. It is crucial for players to receive consistent and high-quality stringing to ensure optimal playing conditions.
1.4
At what level can start to use Professional Stringing
Professional players are recommended to start using professional stringing once they have a solid foundation and can play consistently. Additionally, if they are competing in school or events, using professional racket stringing can benefit them in the long run. When our students know they are receiving top-quality coaching and using the best stringing, they feel more confident in their learning.
As they become accustomed to the professional stringing, they will feel more comfortable playing games. Good stringing has been proven to provide players with a better playing experience. Regarding string technology, there are various string gauge thicknesses available to meet the needs of players at any age and level.
1.5
What They Can Get from this Racket Restringing Services
With this service, students can benefit from a full set of professional stringing knowledge, including how to choose the right badminton string and how to assess stringing quality. Our coach takes the time to explain these important concepts to every student to ensure they have a basic understanding of badminton equipment and are not taken advantage of by others.
Additionally, basic badminton equipment knowledge is included in our yearly theory and practical tests, so our students can have a more comprehensive understanding of the sport and its equipment, including stringing.
1.6
What is the Advantage of this Racket Restring
The advantage of this racket goes beyond the certification of the stringer, as the user will feel the difference and enjoy a comfortable experience on the court. This aspect is crucial, and constantly emphasizing our expertise and certifications is of little importance.
Ensuring that the players are comfortable with the stringing is much more important, as our coach knows from the knowledge he gained from the world-renowned stringing association USRSA. Therefore, our students can benefit from both quality badminton training and professional racket stringing services.
1.7
Who will Conduct this Restringing
As per our usual practice, Mr. Eric, our esteemed badminton coach, will be personally overseeing the racket restringing services for our students, as he is the only qualified stringer.
He is a Certified Stringer accredited by the American Stringing Association. We strictly do not allow any casual stringers to undertake the stringing process. In addition, we have observed that our students perform better during games and training when using professional stringing, as our coaches have conducted research on this matter.
1.8
Our Professional Badminton Stringing Machine
Apart from stringing skills, the stringing machine plays an important role in ensuring the quality of stringing is good. We use the Japan Yonex Protech 8 series stringing machine, which has also been featured in the All England Badminton Championship. This machine is capable of serving the world’s top badminton players.
In addition, the machine’s tension head is sent for calibration every year to check for accuracy within our tolerance. The calibration laboratory must be SINGLAS accredited to ISO/IEC 17025 standard. We prefer to send it to a third party for calibration instead of doing it on our own to ensure fairness to our students and players, and to ensure the calibration results are accurate. This way, they can receive high-quality stringing services.
1.9
Our Machine Stringing Clamp
The stringing clamp is also crucial in ensuring accurate string tension. If the clamp is too tight, it can damage the string quality, and if it’s too loose, the tension won’t be accurate. We send our clamp for yearly calibration to a certified laboratory to ensure its tightness.
Our stringer also performs daily cleaning and maintenance to keep the stringing clamp in good condition. We also check the tightness of the clamp before every stringing session to ensure the best results for our students.
