it was a custom racquet made by wilson to his specifications but now he's signing with head again so he's playing with a blacked our racquet until they give him a new racquet or paintjob.

This is what Djokovic had to say when he switched to Wilson at the end of 2005.

"People from Wilson company tried to make agreement with me for five years and they "catch me" now finally. I don't know the specification of our agreement, because we didn't ratify that still, but I know it's much better convention then I had with Head. I tried to play with 15-20 different models of Wilson and no one is conform to me. Then they made a copy of my Head racquet, and he is absolutely the same."

^^^ as the above poster says, he plays with a custom racquet made by wilson which is a more or less exact copy of the head LM radical midplus.

LM Radical Mp (i am 99% sure) and I been looking for that stick , which now I cant find one to buy new (the pj of the head of the stick is shockingly bad but once I paint over it(all orange) and cover those LM part ..it will mean business
Just wondering if MG Radical would play as good as a LM RADICAL ?

TW still has the LM Radical MP for $69.95

I liked the MG Radical MP a lot more than the LM Radical MP.

A racket based off the Liquidmetal Radical MP. Not exactly it, but its based off it.

This is my first ever post...
Wasn't Djokovic using the LM Radical Tour?
It's a heavier version of the LM Radical, but with the same string pattern 18x20.

Welcome to the TW Boards! And I am not exactly sure, but you may be possibly right. The only thing I know is that he isn't using the exact Liquidmetal Radical.

"People from Wilson company tried to make agreement with me for five years and they "catch me" now finally."
No. What I believe Djokovic is trying to say is Wilson had tried for the past 5 years (2000-2005) to sign him and they were finally successful in 2005.

So, i guess hes switching to head then. I never knew that a pro could get a racquet based off another one from another brand.
