When should you change your strings?
Your racket's performance depends 50% on your frame and 50% on your strings! Be sure to take the time to choose the right strings.
For players who break their strings a lot, change them as soon as they break.
For people who rarely or never break strings, Decathlon recommends changing them as many times per year as you play per week. E.g.: if you play once per week, change your strings once per year. If you play three times per week, change your strings three times per year.
Monofilament strings?
For monofilament strings, Decathlon recommends a tension of between 19 kg and 22 kg. We strongly recommend against using monofilament strings for children under 15 to avoid injury. These strings are best for players who break strings in under 10 hours of play because they quickly lose their tension (20% loss within three hours of play).
Which tension is best?
Moderate tension (18 kg to 23 kg) offers more comfort, spin and power. The flip side is that you'll have less control and accuracy.
High tension (>23 kg) provides greater control and accuracy. It can, however, lead to tendinitis. You will also have less spin and power.
features
Its special low-density co-polyester composition makes it the ideal string for competitive players who enjoy the spin and control of monofilament but want a more flexible tennis string.
