What is “Soft”?
For many years, we have been testing string for elongation and subsequent power potential.
There is a new batch of strings that include the term “soft” in the promotional language, seemingly in an effort to mitigate the injuries associated with very stiff strings.
At some point, we can go into detail about how the soft version of a string compares to the non-soft version; however, for now, I want to reintroduce you to a post we did in 2016… almost ten (10) years ago!

The Consumer and SBS
Sting Bed Stiffness (SBS) could be considered alongside performance cars. In the simplest of terms, a high-performance car requires some understanding of what it is going to do; otherwise, you will end up in the trees or worse!
The same with String Bed Stiffness (SBS). If you don’t know what it is going to do, you may end up in the fence!
Use Your String
We want you to play your best, and using your string is a component of your performance.
If you have any questions about your string and the best stringing technique, please let us know. We can provide information that may help the tournament stringing team meet your expectations.
