search around. A lot of people have pictures of their porton power stringings.
I personally think this is the best one

just follow orange's interlocking tut. Then look where he doubled up on his p2

just pull it tight enough. and the way to get a mid pocket ( the way that worked for me) is to string it so its Single diamond, double diamond, single, double, single,single,single. Thats from the top down

i went inside out. and to keep the mesh from bunching just use the middle two diamonds. I'll post pics of mine when i get my phone back. I got 2 shooters and a V and it throws like butter

I strung a kids proton power twice cause he broke it a few days after. It was pretty weak, but if you get a nice pocket its a good stick. Just dont break it. :D
the next 'one'

this is the best pocket i have strung on a proton power. actually its the best throwing pocket i have ever strung period. i took it out and within the first 5 minutes i was consistently pinging corners from 15 yards out. too bad i strung it for a friend. since then i have never been able to get one to throw that well.
