Professional Racket Restringing / Customisation / Frame Matching Service
Evolve Your Game with a Master Stringer
Not all rackets are the same- you can often feel the difference between frames. I regularly test tennis rackets and find weight variations of up to 10 grams, typically 2–3 grams. These differences stem from manufacturing, where resin application affects weight, balance, and flexibility. A player's "favorite" frame often stands out because it’s slightly different.
The good news? Frames can be customized to match balance and swing weight. While flexibility can’t be changed, adjusting weight and swing weight can improve timing. If your racket is too head-light and you're hitting too early, I can fine-tune it to suit your swing.
Why Customize?
Trust. When you pick up your racket, you need to know it feels exactly the same as the others. At 4-all in the 3rd set, if a string breaks, you don’t have 20–30 minutes to adjust. You need to reach into your bag and pull out a twin—same weight, same swing weight, same grip feel… everything.
🔹 Swing Weight Matching – The most important factor. Even if static weight varies slightly, ensuring identical swing weight keeps your frames feeling the same in motion. I have expensive high end electronic equipment (Yonex precision Pro) and other machines to allow me to be precise.
🔹 Weight Customization – Tailoring swing weight to your playing style. If you're mistiming shots early, adding weight to the head can slow the swing. If you're consistently late, reducing head weight can speed it up. This process requires on-court assessment to fine-tune adjustments.
🔹 Paint Customization – From a simple color change to a completely unique design, your racket can be customized to match your style.
Pro Stock Rackets: Not Magic, Just Custom
There is a myth in tennis that Pro players use some super special rackets, this isn't true. They are normally the frames they learned with as juniors and the manufacturers keep some of these older models aside or even make limited runs. They are then sprayed with the companies current scheme to look like the "new" of the shelf model. Yes, these new frames will become Pro Stock for the new juniors turning pro.
They aren't superior to retail models or built with special materials; they just match what the player is used to and are more consistent.
Take Novak Djokovic’s racket—the Head PT113B, an older Radical Line model Or Stan Wawrinka's VCore 95D made in 2011 its not the VCORE Pro 97H in the shops now. So buying off the shelf is perfectly fine. Pro Stock are not some special rackets. They are however highly customized by someone like me to fit their game perfectly.
