🎵 String strategy for each frame

These are different rackets — they deserve different string setups.

Clash 100 Pro v3

Very flexible frame (RA 57) — arm-friendly. Pair with a crisp co-poly like Luxilon ALU Power Rough at 54–58 lbs to add control and prevent the string bed feeling too elastic.

VCORE 98 2023

Very flexible frame (RA 62) — arm-friendly. Pair with a crisp co-poly like Luxilon ALU Power Rough at 54–58 lbs to add control and prevent the string bed feeling too elastic.
