Racquet Stringing

Fresh strings can restore feel, control and confidence to your game. Choose from our available Wilson, Solinco, Gamma and Luxilon strings—or bring your own.

When Should You Restring?

A simple rule of thumb: restring your racquet as many times per year as you play, on average, each week.

2× / week
2× / year

If you typically play twice a week, consider restringing about twice a year—even if the strings have not broken.

Why fresh strings matter

Strings gradually lose tension over time, which can reduce control and change how your racquet feels—even if you have not played for a while.

Your strings are the part of the racquet that actually contacts the ball, so keeping them fresh can make a noticeable difference in performance.

1

Listen

Fresh strings tend to produce a crisp “ping.” A duller “thud” can be a sign that your strings have gone dead.

2

Haven’t Played?

Strings can still lose tension while your racquet sits unused. After a long break, restringing can help restore feel.

3

Losing Control?

If shots suddenly feel less predictable, worn or tension-lost strings may be contributing to the problem.
