Woman Co-invents Innovative Tennis Racket
An old-fashioned snowshoe on the wall inspired Madeline Hauptman to develop ways to diagonally string tennis rackets. Apparently she believed that the conventional horizontal and vertical stringing was contributing to uncomfortable vibrations in her right forearm and hand whenever her racket hit a tennis ball.
Into her head popped the idea of a different stringing pattern. It's a three-directional weave of two opposing sets of diagonals and a set of vertical strings. The theory is that this pattern will minimize problems by spreading dispersing the impact of the ball in more directions.
Power Angle Rackets were born, and let's just say that WhatsAllTheRacquet is intrigued and would love to try out one of these to let you all know what we think.
