Después de haber decidido el tipo de cordaje que se va a montar, hay que tener en cuenta que los de tripa natural deben estar montados con una tensión de un par de kilos más que el sintético; puesto que, al margen de que cada fabricante recomienda una tensión máxima para cada tipo, estas tensiones deben oscilar entre los 12 y los 22 kilos en raquetas de dimensiones normales [...] hay que tener muy presente que cuanta más tensión haya en las cuerdas, más lenta sale la pelota, aunque con mayor control, y, naturalmente, con menor tensión, más veloz sale la pelota y se tiene menos control de dirección. También se rompen antes las cuerdas cuanto más tensas están. 3, record 1, Spanish, - tensi%C3%B3n
