Oak Tennis – String and Racquet Customization

What we do?

Tennis stringing new or restrung racquets. You can either bring your own string or it can be provided.

Looking to customize the swingweight, balance point or other swing metrics of your racquet?

Is your bumper guard and/or grommet set in bad shape? If so, that's a good way to get significant frame damage and pre-mature string breakidge .

Overgrip replacement or putting on a brand new grip to increase size is a great way to effect playablitiy.

$17.00	string replacement (bring your own strings)
$15.00	bumperguard or grommet strip replacement
$5.00	individual grommet replacement
$5.00	grip replacement
$5.00	add custom sencil

1How long does it take to replace strings?

Strings are normally available within 24 hours of you dropping them off. Do you need them sooner? Rush service is also available.

All stringing is done on a Constant Pull electric stringer. The stringer that I currently use is the Gamma Progression II ELS.

6Strings 101

Thinner string generates more power.
A stiffer stringbed tends to produce more spin.
The more elastic the string, the more tension loss in the racquet after the string job.
Lower string tensions generate more power.
Higher string tensions allow for more ball control.
Decreased string density (fewer strings) generates more power.
Thinner string generates more power.
A longer string (or string plane area) produces more power
Softer strings, or strings with a softer coating, tend to vibrate less.
More elastic strings generate more power.

7Racquet 101

A heavier frame generates more power.
A heavier frame vibrates less.
A stiffer frame generates more power.
A more flexible frame transmits more vibration to the arm than a stiff frame.
A stiffer frame transmits more of the shock load to the arm than a more flexible frame.
A stiffer frame provides a more uniform ball response across the entire string plane.
A larger frame (either be being longer, or by having a larger hitting surface) generates more power.
A larger frame is more resistant to twisting.
A longer frame generates more velocity and therefore more power.
The string bed in a longer frame allows the generation of more spin due to increased velocity.
A head-light, flexible frame is better for your arm than a stiff, head-heavy frame.
