Parnell Knot - HEAD 🇺🇸🇬🇧

[@steviewonder2492]

Awesome video. Thank you! Why don’t we string ahead one with the mains like we do with the crosses?

[@AnhNguyen-id8nf]

It's great to see your work so professional task. I enjoyed and appreciated. I have a question is: Why why does it go from side to side or middle to end for both horizontal and vertical size of the racket but it one is starting from middle and the other start from one end to the other end? Is there any advantage/benefit of doing it ? Why does that need to be different ?

[@adamgase8498]

Does the pro knot hold tension as well as the Parnell?

[@itsmeyourfren]

Yes. It just doesn't look as good.

[@richardparnellknot]

Yes it does, I use it if there is not much room. I do prefer the Parnell Knot as I can guarantee that all the knots are identically facing with the tag ends in the same direction as the anchor string. 🙂

@@richardparnellknot Hi Richard. What do you use for the starting knot on the crosses? I don't want to use a starting clamp. I used to do a double overhand to start. Now, I do a single overhand, followed by a half hitch and it works very well because the end of the string rests nearer to the frame. But I'm looking for something simpler.

J'ai eu le temps de faire deux raquettes en regardant la vidéo.

Bravo, merci d'avoir regardé le video 🙂

Starting CLAMP in the stringbed.....THIS IS WRONG. Will damage your strings....terrible error

[@scissorsharp9032]

You are why we can’t have nice things.

[@richardparnellknot]

The starting clamp is not harming the string but rather acting as a back up to stop any slippage and stripping the string of its surfacing. This method is used by most stringers at Grand Slam level. If you prefer you could use the Yusuki method which has the starting clamp outside the frame behind a Parnell Block 😉
