    Why doesn't TW have black code yet?

    step up your game? a couple days makes no difference at all... i dont see any stepping up necessary.

    The best way to use Tournagrip!

    i agree. i used to play with overgrips (tourna) but when i tried my leather grip, i found that i could feel the ball much better and i could adjust my grip much more easily. I'm sticking with leather now.

    Would replacing my leather grip solve the problem?

    You can definately try changing the leather girps. I would go with the TW leather grips. They are cheap and they come in different widths and thicknesses. You could try the thicker one since you said you liked it slightly bigger.

    ***Official K Blade Tour Club Thread***

    I own two of these rackets and couldn't be happier. I was lucky that both of the rackets were almost exactly the same spec, which wasn't the case with my n95s. The only problem is that one of the grips is slightly smaller. I like the slightly smaller grip. I tried regripping both with TW...

    help recommend a racquet

    seems like players rackets are a bit of a stretch for you. i'd go for somethign easier, perhaps teh kblad 98 or a babolat. i know you said you dont like the babolats, but perhaps you should give them another try, especially the pure drive or storm.

    Wilson Quality Question

    i think its really hit or miss on this. My n95 rackets were abo****ely terrible quality control. one was 12 pts headligh while the other was around 8. one was 11.8 oz and the other was 12.4. i had to do a ton of customization to get the rackets to the same spec. However i just bougth...

    Lead Tape on KBlade Tour

    i put it on at around 10 o clock and 2 o clock and it is the best feeling i have ever gotten out of a racket. it makes the racket a little more balanced, which i like and it just plows through anything. try it out!

    TW Lead Tape

    i use this tape and i've had absolutely no problem with it. i've used all sorts of tape, and they all seem the same for me. no paint comes off.

    wilson hollow core sample still available

    I tried these strings, and i didn't really like them. Nothing special about them, it didnt' really excel in any catagory. Felt like a regular, below-par synthetic string. But i guess people have different opinions.

    Help Choosing New Racket - 4.5 player

    Another thing worth mentioning is that i used to play with the LM radical, and i didn't like it much. For some reason, i felt like i really didn't have much control over the ball and my strokes seemed inconsistent with that racket. I liked the prestige a little better, but the power level...

    Help Choosing New Racket - 4.5 player

    Hey guys, I'm a high school varsity tennis player at about 4.5 and i've been playing with the same racket for about four to five years now, the N95 16 x 18. I really like the racket, but some things have triggered me to consider rackets. First, i tried playing with a kblade tour with...

    LOL, WUT? Yelling Nadal-style helps you play?

    i think that yelling would help you're breathing. a lot of people start holding their breathes without noticing. also, it can help create a sort of "rythem"

    New Laserfibre Store website

    I also am one of the people that had to deal with laserfibre and their bs. It really is quite intriguing because when i could finally teach Tim, he was genuinely nice, explained everything to me, and was extremely curteous. However, the way they handled business was crap and outright lies...

    Eagnas= COMPLETE JOKE

    I dont think any of this behavior is tolerable. It doesn't matter if you're having a bad day; you're running a company and your job is to sell and SERVE your customers. There is absolutely no excuse for the way he acted, and companies like these do not deserve business.

    I am insearch of a crisp, tension-holding multi.

    The laserfibre strings fit your needs. technifibre is nice, but a bit soft. plus, they snap in a couple hours.

    Luxilon - will I benefit?

    as do i. :-) i believe rodger federer puts teh natural gut in the mains. Anhow, i wouldn't recommend a poly to u. Simply no reason to switch, adn a poly doesn't really fit you.

    restringing a woodie...

    Indeed, USRSA should not always be trusted. i'd go with a normal 2-piece. and 50 lbs. at most. that should be plenty tight. maybe even a little less. its not hard. its the same as a regular racket. good luck!

    Head or Prince (Look inside for more details)

    Pure drive roddick users

    I found that for pure drives, poly strings work very well. They help tame teh power a bit and give more control.

    u should seriously check out SPPP or cyber flash. really cheap and relally good.

    Cut The Main String Too Short

    I think it should be possible to string it with 18 feet. u really don't need a full 20 feet. u can use teh starting clamp to help if u do run out.
