To Make the Racquet FASTER, loosen the knot identified by O, slide knot up string A. Whilst performing this adjustment, it is important to ensure strings X & Y remain the same length. By doing this, you effectively pull the top of the ramp back to the back of the net making it steeper and ensuring the ball runs out of the ramp easily.
FASTER
SLOWER
To Make the Racquet SLOWER, loosen the knot identified by O, slide knot down string B. Whilst performing this adjustment it is important to ensure strings X & Y remain the same length. By doing this you effectively loosen the top of the ramp towards the front of the racquet making not as steep and allowing the ball to remain in the net pocket for longer.
NOTE - although the adjuster knots are shown in our diagrams as being on one side of the racquet head they are positioned on both sides of the racquet and must both be adjusted equally whenever making net changes.

Keeping The Ramp Smooth It is important that the ramp for dispensing the Polocrosse ball is kept smooth. In certain cases, you may find that the ball is becoming hooked up in the racquet's own net. Typically, this is caused by the ramp being uneven and the ball, as it rolls, picking up net instead of rolling over it.
The diagram, at right, shows how a racquet with an uneven net would cause difficulty. The ball ramp marked with red arrow shows where the unevenness would be in such a racquet and how the ball could pick up the net on its way out of the racquet.
To Make the Net even, loosen the knot identified by O, slide knot up or down string B to allow the ramp to flatten out. Whilst performing this adjustment, it is important to ensure strings X & Y remain the same length.
