Abstract
A method of stringing a tennis racquet with dual taper strings so as to dispose the smallest diameter strings at the approximate center of the string bed defined by the strings, with the diameter of the string's increasing from such center to the periphery of the frame head. A second method provides a double string bed where the dual taper strings extend over the front and rear faces of the frame head.
Claims4
A method of stringing a racquet frame head with two lengths of dual taper strings, each such string length including a mid-portion of smallest diameter with the string uniformly increasing in diameter outwardly of said mid-portion to the ends of each such string, said method comprising:
- attaching the mid-portion of one of the strings to the lower central portion of the racquet frame head;
- vertically stringing the string segments disposed on opposite sides of the lower central portion of the frame head upwardly and downwardly along the width of the upper and lower portions of the racquet frame head;
- attaching the free ends of said segments to the opposite sides of the racquet frame head;
- attaching the mid-portion of the second of the strings to the intermediate portion of one side of the frame head;
- horizontally stringing the segments of said second string disposed on opposite sides of said mid-portion upwardly and downwardly along the height of the racquet frame head starting from said intermediate portion;
- attaching the free ends of such segments to an upper side and a lower side of the frame head;
- and
- whereby the smallest diameter portions of the first and second strings will be disposed at the approximate center of the string bed defined by said strings, with the diameter of most of the strings gradually increasing from the approximate center of the string bed to the periphery of the frame head.
