Welcome to the first issue of Pro Stringer 2018. We have a lot
of new products for this issue.
The new Pro Stringer Guide (formerly Stringers Digest) has
been sent out to the current 2018 members. If you have not
signed up for this year you will be missing out on the new
Technique Section. This has been updated with the latest
techniques for stringing, tuning and repair. This is now only
a practical guide. The theory parts are included in the 2018
Study Guide. Our managers are busy translating the new
Pro Stringer Guide Technique Section into German, French,
Spanish, Italian, Greek, Czech, Dutch, Russian, Portuguese,
Chinese and Korean. As soon as they are finished they will
be published in PDF form and sent to the members in the
respective countries.
We will have in the coming issue an article about the 2018
Australian Open Yonex Stringing Service. A large number of our
members have been on the team again with a requirement
for new team members to have the ERSA Pro Tour Stringer
Level 1 certification.
The Symposium planning is going well with members signed
up so far from Asia, North and South America, Africa and of
course Europe. Please sign up early so reserve a place and a
hotel room. So far we have 10 companies signed up giving
presentations and showing their newest products.

Signum Pro ERSA has a large percent of shop owners so we will be
introducing more clothing and shoe introductions in the
coming issues. Also, special courses will be offered for shop
owners in the near future which will complement our new
ERSA Master Pro Stringer Level 2.
