Badminton Stringing - 4 knot, top down view, no talking

[@MrDoordude125]

Can you give me a tip on how you thread the string through the mains so easily while doing the crosses? I have so much trouble doing it that way I actually use pliers to go up and down each string

[@badmintonstuff]

Of course! First you would need to have short or semi short finger nails, then instead of holding the string at the very end try to hold the string NEAR the end and also don't push the string up and down. Focus on passing the string forward and only use the two index fingers to move the end of the string slightly up or slightly down at the same speed as you push you string forward. If you weave 2 rows ahead then the strings are already stagnated in a way that the mains are already slightly staggered with one main up and one main down then up and down etc... and all you have to do is try pass the cross string though the space between the main strings. I will try to make a video soon on what I am talking about soon but I hope this helps a little bit.

HI! I posted a short video with a better angle on how I weave my crosses!

[@shi-kwantan799]

nice video! I see you have access to multiple stringing machines, what is your thought of Yonex ES5 Protech?

[@badmintonstuff]

I think it is a solid machine even though it is a little bit old but it doesn't under perform, the only thing I don't like about it is that there is a lot of thing that the string can get hooked on when stringing. Aside from that one problem I don't have any other bad things to say about it!

[@cupangadu]

may i ask you when doing the cross, why you also open the previous row clamp and then clamp it again. ?

[@rioalvianno]

Menurut gw. Ya bang, mungkin buat tension distribution nya lebih merata. Waktu string masih d mesin tarik clamp d lepas agar tension yg d share lebih rata.

[@badmintonstuff]

Loosening both clamps makes sure the tensions spreads out evenly through out stringing! Hope that helps!

for knot, we just make the simple knot will do?

[@badmintonstuff]

As long as you make sure the knot wont slip through the grommet it should be good!

@@badmintonstuff tq for the info 👍

[@kangputra4863]

how much does the clamps weigh?

[@badmintonstuff]

I honestly have no idea, but it is not particularly heavy.

[@alancmchan]

You measure 6.5 racket length of string for mains, but you measure the crosses by your arm width (3 and a bit). Is there any reason why don’t you measure by racket length like mains? Thanks

[@badmintonstuff]

There is no particular reason. I have gotten used to measuring it this way and I've never really tried to change it haha.

[@tranluongbadminton]

how to latch a racquet string, Can you make a video on how to tie a badminton racket string?

[@badmintonstuff]

I will try to make a video on that but there are also plenty of videos online about it too!

[@tranluongbadminton]

​@@badmintonstuff i really like your videos , i will look forward to it
