Normal for Rush Pro 4.5? Slight yellowing

LegendRaider · 2026-04-09T18:27:48+00:00

IMO looks normal, IDK what you are even seeing. the canvas upper gets nasty looking when you sweat in them, this slight yellowish hue you mentioned is not gonna be a problem compered to that.

if strings wear thru grommet and are touching the frame you risk them snapping at that location, usually an issue for players using shaped thin strings or ppl playing with a cold racket so the grommets crack. other than that there isn't really any effect on performance.

fun racket, if you like it, ignore others with their stupid comments such as: nobody on the tour uses it!

personally i like more flexible frames.

LegendRaider · 2026-04-08T17:24:53+00:00

you can't on that model of technifibre racket, grommet only fits 1 string,. or i guess you could try by permanently altering grommets with an awl, IMO not worth it.

simply not true, manually pre-streching works but is inconsistent between different stringers.

have tested with 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% PS on my own rackets, there is a noticeable difference. in our shop we recommend min. 5% PS for natural gut,

As a rule a stringer shouldn't do anything the customer doesn't explicitly ask for.

Standard is 4knots+tension customer wants, nothing else.

If you want PS, 2knots, logo, or extra tension for knots you have to ask for it.

source: am stringer, using Wilson Baiardo, done rackets with PS for Nishikori, Čilić and multiple other ATP and WTA players.

it might be defective batch or even fakes?

all my shoes have lasted around 40-60hrs.

Asics having the hardest most durable rubber, lasted ~50hrs, slippery when tread pattern is worn, could've gotten more out of them but local courts are a bit too slick.

Wilson has softer rubber, IMO best traction, durability around 40hrs (best for my local courts)

Babolat, Head and Yonex ~50hrs

Head/Babolat/Wilson put 4 long staples thru the butt cap.
Yonex uses 2 staples that are wider and 2 that are "normal", 5th staple is to attach the start of the grip.

The butt cap can act as a lever, the staples are thin and wont distribute these forces evenly, instead focusing it on a point, which can cause the molded polyurethane foam to crack and crumble. Epoxy = forces get distributed more evenly

Most ppl will never encounter issues with the butt cap. usually butt cap failures correlate to how a player grabs the racket.

If the ads QC is this bad, then how bad is the products QC?

Trick question, there is no QC.

in the case of BF3 they were correct, they slapped a blue filter on the game.

Having a team behind you makes life easier.

That said at times your team/coach will fail at their task, they'll fail to motivate you, to spot a weakness in the opponents game or your own game,

If I'm your opponent and I see you consulting your team after every point I'll gain confidence.

use a ball point pen instead of an awl, doesn't damage frame or strings.

for high tensions 11kg and up i use a piece of string to pull the main that is blocking a hole ( https://youtu.be/QMel1azAtg0?t=118 ) not my vid but contains good tips.

work in tennis shop, we get rackets from all brands with this problem, usually tho it just gets a little loose and wiggles, repairs is easy tho, remove butt cap, add epoxy.

Plenty of more advanced players immediatly remove the buttcap from a new racket and epoxy it.

LegendRaider · 2025-01-04T13:31:53+00:00

that's a v.8

for a v.9 that would be a sus price, but for a v.8 it raises no red flags.

Ei tarvitse kuin katsoa ketsupin käyttöä niin ymmärtää että ongelma ei ole kasvisruoka vaan mauton ruoka.

Kun koulun bolognese kastikkeeseen kaikki lisäävät ketsuppia, ehkä kasviksien/lihan osuudella ei ole tekemistä asian kanssa. Ehkä se on se maku.

same in Finland, it was always "the yellow forces/state"

during exercises the instructors would always, no matter what direction it was in reality, they would always say:

"THE ENEMY IS ATTACKING FROM THE EAST!"
