The 1969-established tennis specialist at 1434 University Ave has strung more than 500,000 racquets over five-plus decades under founders Bob and Hiroko Ray and current owner Roger Ray. Racquet stock runs Babolat, Head, Volkl, Wilson, Yonex and Prince demos on an in-shop try-out court, with court-day sun protection picked up alongside the visor and wide-brim stock at Village Hat Shop two blocks east. On-site stringing covers polyester, multifilament, natural gut and hybrid setups with tension customization and handle repair while you wait. The footwear wall holds San Diego's largest selection of tennis-specific shoes from adidas, ASICS, Babolat, Nike, Wilson and Yonex, with off-court recovery options complementing the comfort and arch-support line at Footwear etc. Mission Hills. Racquet-sport inventory expands into Wilson, Head and Gamma pickleball paddles, Butterfly and Stiga table-tennis blades and Yonex badminton gear. Tournament-level custom builds — frame selection, grip-size customization, lead-tape weighting and string tension tuned to a player's swing speed — give competitive Hillcrest and Balboa Park league players a full bespoke-racquet program.
