    I'm from the future and there will be another player who happens to also have a hybrid setup who becomes the Grand Slam leader above Federer and Roddick. He is from Serbia and his nickname is Nole.
    Also 9 mins is crazy fast for a racket string job

    ive seen it done in 10-11 minutes, so id imagine the guys stringing for the US Open would be able to do it in 9 minutes. he also implied that it wouldnt be the best string job

    @snicker292 i mean if your a strong player that may be a good racquet for you, im 16 and use the blx 95 18x20 so basically the same thing and the weight helps when you have developed shots, just whatever feels comfortable

    my biggest curiosity has to do with that rubber /elastic that some plyers use on their strings... what is that and where does it go though on the strings (how is the knot) ?

    He probably said that because Andy Roddick is known for his power, which he linked to string tension later in the vid.

    I like how he doesn't explain why the italians needed to shut off the power before the matches and how he strung the racquets if all the machines were electronic. And he says that the modern machines now are electronic, well back in the day wouldn't those machines be mechanical. This guy doesn't really put too much detail when he explains things.

    At 3:05 the girl cuts all the crosses at once!. You better don´t do that!. That makes the frame support all the mains tension. There are ways to cut strings and don´t damaging the frame. Sorry I won´t let them touch my rackets.

      When you string a racquet you usually string the mains first. This means the frame is supporting all the mains for a longer time and at a higher tension than the few seconds it takes her to cut the strings out. So while it's true it's not recommended to cut the strings this way, I highly doubt it'll damage the frame.

      @@ViaticalTree Hi. Sorry for the late response. When stringing, the racket is secured by 2, 4 or 6 mounting points, so the frame is not supporting all the tension of the mains. I have a cheap, under $200 stringing machine, and the user manual tells how to cut the strings. I think a $10K Wilson Baiardo should tell the same. Considering the cost of the rackets (some have paintjobs that cost $250 each, to make them look like the racket the player endorses), the cost of the stringing job (I bet it´s not cheap), the cost of the strings, sincerely, I am dissapointed when that girls cuts the crosses all at once. I´m not trying to troll anyone, but I think that for an excellent job you have to follow closely the instructions.

      "Because the breakage of a string causes substantial imbalance in the distribution of tension in the frame, it is advisable for the owner of the racquet to cut through the entire string bed as soon as possible after a string breaks. To avoid creating further stress as one cuts into the string bed, it is best to begin at the center of the racquet by snipping a main and a cross string together where they intersect. One should then proceed outward in a diagonal toward the rim by snip-ping intersecting strings above and below the center point in alternation. If, after reaching the rim, a few strings still hold tension, they can be cut singly." (Silent Partnet Stringing Machine User Manual)
