Hello,
So, the K95 was/is the best frame I ever found for myself. I played with the K's for about 2 years, but my entire body slowly being ripped to shreds because of its stiffness caught up to me. I've been playing with Prestige Mid's since (next best thing I could find). I finally got my hands on a BLX 95, and it is still very stiff, but seems slightly more comfortable. I'm going to give it a go.
What I am curious about is the weight, swingweight, and balance. I only have one, but it swings LIGHT. Feels toy'ish compared to my old K95's, no way this thing has a swingweight near 340. This thing swings very easy and is lacking some of that swingweight/mass associated with the previous K95 or even the N95.
I am curious about experiences with this frame and if Wilson's qaulity control issues have gotten even worse with this new series?? I will restring it with a full polyester and hopefully that will bring the swingweight up slightly compared with the current string setup, but this thing does not swing like a PJ'd K95.
Anyone gotten these things on an RDC machine, a scale, or compared with some old K95's?

Edit: In post #33 I've posted measured specs of my frames!
