Hey guys...

i just wonder if i wanna string up my BLX 6.1 95 with full synthetic, what tension shud i go ... i've totally no exp on synthetic strings... always a poly user. so i've no idea the range for synthetic to match the playability of the poly .. Thought give it a try since i broke 2 strings this morning... my BLX 6.1 95 and also the PUre Storm GT .. and worst i brought 2 racqs to court only .. dua dua pun putus ... Gonna string up poly for the PSGT and synthetic for the 6.1 95.

I want the synthetic to hav tension matching around a 48lbs-50lbs poly on the BLX 6.1 95 ...

hey gmorque,

if u're in jb, u can come down to sg to look for it.. barricade V can get around 99 sgd so ard 240 RM.. but need to look here n there.. Queensway is a good place to find.. else u can go to the nike factory outlet in west coast plaza .. can get shoes ranging from 80- 110 sgd ... the old nadal was on sale at 109 lastime..

yan, about 10-15% higher depending on type of string. but generally for syn guts try it first at the mid of the recommended tension range of your racket, which shd be 50-60lbs, hence give it a shot first at 55lbs.
*
haha... we think alike... i was thinking of setting it at 55lbs as well. and hopefully will play more comfortable... it's a tough racq to use the blx 6.1 95 ..

Boss can elaborate or not? ( BLX 6.1 95 tough to use)
Appreciate your guidance on this as I may have student interested in the racket, any input good or bad is highly appreciated!!!!
*
mmm... i think to seriously comment abt it right now wudn't be that accurate...Firstly coz i feel the stringer did a poor job and very suspicious that she even key in the right tension. Secondly i bought a wrong overgrip which caused my palm to blister yet again (damn wilson grips)...
maybe wait for my 2nd string job then i can wrtie something here...

p/s: so far the only thing that kinda cool abt this racq is the blocking shot. i just have to reach the ball and not even use any energy .. the ball will go back over the net... be in FH or BH.. that's how stiff it is ... just gotta touch it ..

yup, best point to start lah, from then u can decide if u want higher or lower. but the blx95, if its anything like the k95, will probably be quite comfy on syn gut. your concern, again if its anything like the k95, shd be dialing down the power, as the k95 almost consistently caused me home runs and i had to shorten my swing considerably.
*
yup i think more concenr is power ... anyways like mr. z told me.. start at 55lbs then decide since it's my very first time using synthetic strings

I agree with you Yan. As I checked with local dealer before, almost all of them carry L2 instead of L3 grip size.

Some even recommend people to use overgrip to make the grip increase. The problem with using overgrip is one will have to spend a lot on overgrip because it wears off pretty fast as compare to replacement grip.
*
yah i wish they carry more L3 here... still waiting to get my L3 APDGT .. latest update .. end of this week .. smile.gif

Pro players really influence recreational players or wannabe players alot.
Back in those days when Becker was using those giant sized grip L5 or L6, the trend was bigger grip size.

Hahhahahaha.............
*
yah exactly .. however it's also what the suppliers bring here... coz we're just limited what they bring here in malaysia. Supplier mindset.. ASIAN small hands, get grip 2 .. WESTERN big hands .. grip 3 ... at least that's what the dealers are telling me. even they placed orders for grip 3 .. still they don't get it coz the bulk of grip 3 goes to US

IN my quest to find L3 grips in malaysia .. i stumbled upon this product from Babolat
http://www.tennis-warehouse.com/Babolat_Sm...BAB-BSGKIT.html

user posted image

It's called a smart kit. where you can enlarge your original grip size to L3-4-5 i think.... anyone interested ? cost ard rm49.

so far i bought but sayang wanna take out the original grip. Coz i think you gotta strip your handle bare.. then put the smart kit on and it comes with a replacement grip already ... so it's said to enlarge your grip size according to what size you wnat.. l3, l4 w/o compromising the feel.. meaning u'll still feel the bevel..

let me know if anyone keen on trying ... can let u b the guinea pig .. lolx .. i got stock in hand

I think this Smart Grip would make the grip not level right? It's like it'll create 2 bumps on the grip (from what I understand).
Head grip palette shape are different that other rackets.
*
basically this smart grip will make the bottom half of the handle bigger.. so for double handed u need to buy another piece... smile.gif

Ooooo.. Not really suitable for building up grip size then. Using the Smart Grip would make the grip feels uneven I think. But that would up to personal preferences.  cool2.gif

i also dunno lah .. hehe.. just pointing out the options out there smile.gif

i hav no answer for u bro .. wat i can say is that ery racq has diff balance point .. so timing is crucial when serving ... so mayb u just gotta adjust more since it's a new racq
