Tennis racket stringing at Alpine

Your tennis racket strings are an integral part of the rackets performance. Different strings will give the racket completely different characteristics. Let the crew at Alpine find the correct string for your game. Whether you are looking power, longevity, or comfort, we can help find you a great one. Strings loosen and degrade with age. A racket should be re strung at least twice a year. And if you are playing a lot, then it will need to be done even more. A good rule of thumb that we use is however many times you play a week is how many times it should be strung in one year.

Alpine offers strings from Babolat, Head, Luxilon, Yonex, Wilson, Solinco and Tecnifibre. 

We also have a 24 hour turnaround on all restringing. Stop in and see us at either location and let us help you get the most out of your racket.
