Those nice people at Tennis Tech have sent me the first reel of the really soft polyester string (Energy Pro)! (See: String test)
These strings are manufactured in Germany and are the softest co-poly I have tested to date.


Note: "Energy Pro" had the highest ever test scores by independent string testers and in "blind" tests with players who did not like "polyester strings" received the best ever rated string. (A lot of converts to this very soft polyester string!)
I will offer the first five customers restrings for £14
(Note: only the blue will be available at the moment)

New Tennis shoe lacing method

10/2/2014

During my years of playing and coaching squash I have worn my Big Toe joints away, I have now found a new shoe Lacing method that helps!

To give your shoe an overall roomier feel, try the parallel lacing technique. To start, lace the first two eyelets near the toe of the shoe. On one side, pull the lace up through the first eyelet and then straight across the shoe and into the eyelet directly across from it. On the other side, skip the first eyelet and pull the lace up through the second eyelet and then lace it into the eyelet straight across from it. Repeat this skipping an eyelet and lacing across pattern until the shoe is laced to the top. This lacing technique is a little tricky, so here is a link to a video that might help. (For other lacing methods see: Link)



My thanks to http://katierunsthis.com/ for this tip!

Custom made Badminton side supports posts

I have purchased these new badminton side support posts, they are self centering and do not block any holes.
They are not cheap but you get a really well made support post that grips the racket on both sides (top and bottom) of the racket. The big plus side is there is no intrusion by the support posts into the string bed area.
Total cost for the four support posts delivered is £38
If you wish to purchase these side support posts please email:

State what make and model of stringing machine you have and on the email

    Hi I'm Dave Giles, This is my Blog page, please feel free to leave a comment, I will of course review any comment before it is published.
    I have been involved with racket sports for over 40 yrs. I am a string tester for  various companies. I play mostly tennis nowadays but have been tempted back to squash coaching.
