i played badminton for 20 yrs, this is the first video i saw of the stringing process, and it looks very interesting. i dont know if theres courses i can take in my city for it, but i do wanna learn to do it now. im not looking to make a career out of it, but if i were to buy my own machine to string my own rackets one day, what do you recommend? or what features should i be looking for? cuz by the time i learn this and decide to buy a machine, the current models might not be relevant anymore.
I learned from watching videos online and also from the stringers at my club. I would say that if you are intersted in stringing for youself or for other people buying a machine and just figuring it out would be the best way to do it. As for wich machine you should get, I suggest to get any machine that is in your budget and not too old. The main features I would look for is a 4 point or a 6 point stringing machine, either hand crank or eletronic, and one that has its own stand since I find it to be eaier to move and place. LMK if you have anymore questions and I'll do my best to answer them!
@@badmintonstuff ya i also asked on reddit and my friends in the last couple of days, apparently there really isnt any course to teach this, thats wild! i thought there would be a course for everything. so knowing that, im a bit hesitant to start this hobby cuz buying a machine first without knowing whether ill enjoy it is quite an investment considering even cheap second hand ones are hundreds of dollars, almost 1000, and i dont really have the spare cash right now, so...i will have to see, and maybe wait for a steal on the 2nd hand market. my original plan was to learn the basics in a course, and if i like it, then ill buy a machine to practice and eventually string my own
I'm a bit surprised how good and easy you make the weaving look. I struggle a lot while doing that. It's very time consuming for me. Also another question I have. Is there a reason why you pre weave one of the cross strings before pulling the other? I see many others do the same but I am not sure why.
The reason to pre-weave one of the crosses is so that the main strings will be already offset so when you go in to weave the next row it makes it a lot easier since the main strings are already slightly moved up or down and all I have to do is to push the head of the string through the opening. th-cam.com/video/PHDv1NZFqBA/w-d-xo.html here is a video where there is a better angle of what I'm talking about with a bit more detail in the description!
Thank you! I’ve just been practicing for a long time. I imagine my fingers and string riding the “wave” of main strings, I don’t know if that makes much sense but I will try to make a video about stringing crosses one day. Let me know if you have more questions though!
So what would the correct tension be for this racket would it be 25 ibs, 27 ibs or in between at 26ibs? im just curious because when i shop on joybadminton it only gives one number for ibs and im not sure if its the ibs for the main string, cross, or if the number is the median of both.
The tension for this racket would be 26LB. When buying a racket, usually the listed tension is the median of both crosses and mains e.g 24lb means 23lb mains and 25lb crosses. Hope this helps!
For the cross I use about 184-188 inches (467-477 cm) of strings and for the mains I would use about 205-210 inches (520-533 cm) of string from the reel. You can use less string to restring a racket but this is the most efficient amount of string for me.
In my short time as a stringer for badminton, it depends on if you have starting clamps to support. Mains usually require 7 racket lengths + handle. Crosses usually require 6 racket lengths + handle. After you measure them, feel free to measure how many "arm pulls" you need by using the string you just cut. IMO, it's easier to just state racket lengths.
Good on ya bro. keep it up the great work mate. just curious, from my personal point of view. all Victor racquets have moved a lot in the corner of 11 or 1 o'clock compared to Yonex (Excluding Nanoflare) when the machine pulled that corner right?
Thanks! I think it's because Yonex and Victor rackets are made from different composite carbon fiber or the mesh that makes up the carbon is different in some way but I have also noticed it too.
hey just a quick question, but what is the reason for not looping the string on the black knob when pulling the mains but looping it around that for the crosses? thanks
Because I can pre weave the mains more if I don’t use the knob but since I have excess string when pre weaving the cross I can fully loop the string around the knob. When you loop the string around the knob it almost acts like a pre stretch so if you don’t use it it doesn’t affect the anything.
I have a question. I love Aerosonic string but I break them more often than I would like, would it be a bad idea to use a more durable string for the mains but Aerosonic for the crosses to try and get a better feel but with more durability?
That my friend, is exactly what Abite is lol. If you use bg 80 for the mains and Abite for the crosses it basically becomes areobite. The strings will last longer but it won't feel the same as complete asonic . I recommend you try bg 80 for the mains and asonic for the crosses and see how it feels and then test other strings as well, just make sure that the cross string's gauge is thinner than the mains. Hope you have fun!
I have never heard of BG70 pro before, but as long as it is thicker than aerosonic then go for it! I usually use bg80 since it gives a similar feel to aerobite.@@MrDoordude125
@@badmintonstuff tried it and the first game I used it my two middle main strings pulled through the frame of my racket completely pulling the grommets through the outer portion of my frame into the middle the frame. Very weird never seen anything like it before. Could this be from mixing these two strings ? Or more likely just coincidence?
Hi thanks for the great video! However when I string the string keeps snapping when I pull rhe first cross strings😢. May I know what could be the cause?
Are you pulling 2 strings at the same time? If you are only pulling 1 string then there is a high likelihood of it snapping. It might also be because your knot is not good enough and it snaps at the knot. Hope that helps!
@@nigelyap6820 Maybe this video helps, I think this by far is the best knot to do for cross start, it doesn't hold on the string below and it's strong and big enough to be pulled: th-cam.com/video/wDp8Vt5h-pg/w-d-xo.html
Starting from the middle ensures that the tension is evenly distributed on both sides of the racket. Also it's not good to tension just one side because when tensioning the racket, the racket warps it a little bit, so if I were to just do one side first it would warp the racket too much and it might break since the other side isn't under stress at all.
You seem to be doing very well, but I think the finish is loose and further down in tension too quickly. I suggest you pay attention to string stretch and twist.
Did you start your crosses on the ninth hole? I must admit, I tend to start mine on the eighth as I feel it gives the mains a little bit more protection.
Hello, I have a fake replica racket. It can handle 30 pounds. I'm planning on stringing it with 27 pounds tension with four knots. Is it a bad idea? Does four knots be bad for my racket? Also, seeing internet advice about the cross strings should be tensioned at 10% higher than the main strings, should I do that?
Usually, 27 pounds is not going to break a racket unless it is a very cheap replica. Make sure that the replica that you have is of good quality and if you deem it to be good then you can string it at 27 pounds. When you string crosses just make sure the tension is 2 pounds higher than the mains so for 27 LB you want to string the mains at 26 and the crosses at 28. Hope that helps!
If you use the same tension on main and crosses it still makes the racket more round than oval. The normal way is to just string a crosses at a higher tension than the mains to ensure the frame goes back to its ovular shape
Racket does not factor in how muhc it costs to restring. It is only dependent on what strings you want plus the labour fee. Usually for bg 65 it would cost $26 including the string and the labour!

There are stringing patterns that don't need to cut the strings but the most common method and the Yonex approved method is the two piece pattern. On my channel, I do have a few videos where I string single stringing pattern rather than the Yonex 2 piece pattern as well!
I just wanted to thank you for your videos its really helpful for beginners stringer like me, i would be grateful if you could tell what is the type of pliers and awl you are using? TIA
Thanks you! I started making video because I wanted people who are just starting to have more videos to refer to. As for the tools I’m using, I just use whatever came with the stringing machine at my club (it’s very old) but I reckon anything you can find laying around or buying some basic pliers and awl from amazon works just as well. Hope this helps!
It took me about 1.5 hours to string my first racket without someone helping me and just using youtube. It took me a month of stringing almost every day to get to about 20 minutes per racket!
You can get a lot of different machines for different prices but this one is not currently sold by honey but you can buy something similar straight from Yonex or Victor

Thank you!
You had me at "no talking" good stuff
Thank you!

8:24 bro wtf 💯
pro's do that
😂long way to go man
Once u strung many racket u will be the same
the fact that i just bought arcsaber 11 play last week and youtube recommending me this is kinda funny
You're a pro! Tks for this good stuff

Would you please advise the minimum length of "long string" & "short string" for stringing yonex pattern when I cut from coil string, thank you...!

Thanks!
Nice!, tbh, How can you repair strings without the machine 😅
There are a lot of ways but all of them are very janky lol. It's not impossible just very very inaccurate, inefficent and just not good at all haha.
Thank you for your video and Could you tell how much cost the machine?
I am not sure about this machine since yonex doesn't sell it anymore but a machine like this would generally cost around 4k - 8k usd.

To keep racket shape

How much it cost for stringing
your house
DAMN
Shop near my place doeses it for free if u buy the string from them
Can you tell me what exactly amount of string (in metres) are used in your video ??? Is it 10m ??
I prefer the two knot
4 knots is a little faster IMO but 2 knots are cooler
