what is the name of the shoe that richard gasquet is wearing?
Unstrung:
347g
348sw
12" (30.4cm) balance with tourna
So what is the head size seems larger than a 98. Also any specs like balance and flex sw and static weight.
I feel somewhat silly posting this in Pro's Racquets and Gear but I did try it out on my Flexpoint Tour and if you like holding the racquet low it works fantastic. I really like it on the serve. Felt really secure and I felt like I could let the racquet head lag and really pull from the handle.
That said I won't be switching over permanently. It was just a fun experiment.
As a one hander I will try this at some point. I know Wawa does a very subtle version of this. He puts a small piece of medical take at the very end of the butt and then wraps the grip over it.
The way that leather grip is wrapped just bothers me. It seems like a lot of pro's really don't care about their gear that much. They just want what they're comfortable with.
Looks like the Tourna Sampras dampener. Wonder if it's good.
Is his leather grip wrapped upside down?
I checked. Couldn't find Wilson ones either. Only Tourna. Although if they have the durability of the Tournagrips (one of the reasons that makes me use Pro's Pro overgrips instead), it will be without me.I think it's the Luxilon O dampener that is super popular on the tour (Gasquet, Berdych Monfils, etc). You could just ask Luxilon for them and they would send them to you, however I believe they stopped producing them.

That was my only complaint about Yonex racquets. I loved the RD-7 except for that tiny butt cap. I would put a build up sleeve over the cap, trim, then regrip the racquets.
I can zoom in even more here, but you can see the pallet says "TK57 4"
In these, I can easily see that there aren't any LM ridges any more, but the new clear caps still have LM ridges molded in:
but all the pics show 16/19 string pattern. the LM instinct has a 18/19 string pattern!
edit: ok sorry. the LM instinct tour has a 16/19 pattern!
