Ashaway USA Press Release:Ashaway Racket Strings has developed a new core construction technique that allows the production of lighter, stronger badminton strings than any yet produced. ZyWeaVe™ technology allows Ashaway to produce ZyMax 62 (0.62mm) a string that is 25% lighter than standard 0.70mm badminton strings.
"Professional players like lighter strings in their racquet heads for more power on smashes and better feel and control on touch shots," said Steve Crandall, Vice President of Marketing for Ashaway. "Play testing of the new ZyMax line has been very positive. Ruilin Huang, won the 2009 US Open Ladies Doubles Championship using ZyMax 67"
Using a combination of high-tech materials and their proprietary ZyWeaVe core, the new Ashaway strings produce less elongation at professional stringing tensions and less creep. This means the strings maintain tension and consistent maximum performance throughout their playing life. In addition, ZyWeaVe technology allows Ashaway to make a string that can be strung at unusually high tensions.
"We've been able to string a ZyMax 0.70mm gauge string at over 40 lbs. using special high tension racquets," said Crandall. "You can tell the string is maintaining tension and repulsion power by the nice crisp "ping" sound it makes when you strike the shuttle."
