Whichever you prefer

technically, i would say that the Aero Pro drive have a nice, cool design...HEAD racquets are abit plain. but the coolest one should be the babolat pure storm...~:eek:

Is the Pure Storm the red one? Because if it is, I agree.

APD is pretty sweet.

I like the original nPro, I think it is. The frame looks normal, but it feels rounded. Pretty sweet, if I remember right.

what about Dulko? she has pure control

Mr.Federer
05-22-2006, 12:08 PM
Fernando Gonzalez,Chela,Massu and Ginepri also used the pure control before some of them "switched" to the pure storm.

I think it's kinda "weird" and "cool" how many Dunlop/Slazenger players don't play with a Dunlop frame, even an older one.

Davydenko's o3 Tour is pretty sweet too.

Hewitt's RDS PJ is the best Yonex graphic I've ever seen

Federer's mystery stick looks nice.

Pure Storm! So, Ginepri?

That's why I bought one.

Is Gonzalez using a real Pure Storm?

I think there are a few women using them in near stock form...

Hingis has a nice RDS paintjob (because shes the only one with that RDS...)

I always like Srichapan's color scheme.

Scoville Jenkins uses the Pure Control.

I like the color schemes of Pure Control and Pure Storm, but the blue/black of the Drive just doesn't appeal to me.

Haas, Mauresmo, Robredo, ToJo, et al., are all using real Dunlops. Fish and Henman both use PSC 6.1 clones, but they are nonetheless unique frames. Dunlop already suffered the Safin/PC600 paintjob fiasco, and I imagine that they would be unwilling to provoke other racquet manufacturers that way again.

what about Dulko? she has pure control

Yes, she does have pure control....over my Johnson.

kidding.

Not much really cool stuff out there at the moment, but if we allow entries from the 80's and 90's....

My real answer would be Guy Forget, for the Lacoste frame he wielded in the 90's.

Second answer: the trippy, triple-throated LeCoqSportif frame Yannick Noah used to use.

Third: Puma Boris Becker Pro, with the screw on the bottom.

Tied for fourth: the Dunlop Max 200G...and anything by adidas, Kneissl, Futabaya or Snauweart.

Safin had signed with Dunlop, but continued to use the Head Prestige Classic 600 under Dunlop paint. Head sued; Safin returned to Head.

Ooohh. Why would Safin want to go to Dunlop if he still wished to use the Head PC600. Money?

sweetest paint job ever: nBlade with red instead of the orange. Could be a new pj for the n6-1

How old are you? A racquet made be a good looking racquet but how cool can it be when anybody can buy it. Coolness is earned and can't be bought like some commodity.

Huh? Where can non-pros buy a PS 6.0 95 with a nSix-One paintjob? Nowhere.

Well I just liked it because it's a very exclusive priviledge to have your racquet painted as another one. Plus it looks neat

Yeah, I've heard of that brand too. I thought it was g-star. Did they go out of business or something?

I don't have an opinion on this topic directly, but I do have an opinion as to which racquet ever made was the coolest looking racquet. That would be the TA Davis, Imperial in black. Not the one made in the late '60's and early '70's, but the one made in the '50's. I started out with the white version and then got the black version my senior year of high school. Very sweet looking stick with the enamel inlays and wood laminations. Head heavy as I recall....And pretty heavy-about 14 oz.
