Hi Cheah.. I'm writing an article soon on gears for beginners. It will be on tennis.my's main portal page. For a quick guide, you should go for a tennis racquet that is above 110 sq. in. head size. Start with a string tension of 53 pounds & see how it goes.U also want to stick to synthetic & not polyester type of strings in the beginning to lessen injury chances as your arm is not used to the proper stroke mechanics yet. Below is one of my beginner racquet choice: Oversize Specs Head Size: 115 sq. in. / 742 sq. cm. Length: 27.5 inches / 70 cm Strung Weight: 9.5oz / 269g Balance: 8 pts Head Heavy Swingweight: 317 Stiffness: 37 Beam Width: 26 mm/28 mm Dual Taper Beam Composition: 80% [K]arophite Black / 20% Graphite Power Level: High Swing Speed: Slow Grip Type: [K] Grip String Pattern: 16 Mains / 19 Crosses Mains skip: 7T,9T,7H,9H One Piece No shared holes String Tension: 55-65 pounds |
