Do you use your Proton for attack? I can see your Evo in the back ground!!! Good job on the stringing though!!!

You should try running the lace straight along the back of the mesh and wrap the extra lace around that, going through every hole. You'll gett a really nice release this way!!!http://www.lax.com/shop/item.phtml?page=product_4104_front.phtml This is the first picture I could find of a head that had the same lacing as I am talking about!!!
wot do you mean? are you talking about the shooting strings?

yea you should tighten the bottom string and put it through twice it should look sort of like an M.

Your sidewall strings should look like this. Otherwise, you did great for a first time!

He doesnt need to tighten it, although, he does need to make a M or a UU for the bottom string.

You might want to consider puting another string on the top, only one will break pretty fast.

yeah it looks to me as if the top string is a little off i like to have them like the sidewall lace http://www.laxnation.com/home/images/stringing/straightjacket/2.jpg kinda like that but make sure its tight..also like thefeeder said you might want two up there
