Federer BLX Prostaff 6.1
 
So will Federer use the BLX Prostaff 6.1 90? Sorry if this was already answered but i couldn't find an answer on google.

yes, he will

Andyroo10567 12-25-2011 06:27 PM
Ok thanks :)

Good job team!

To spice the conversation up: "allegedly"

Members here say that his current BLX is just the K Factor version, so we can't actually know if he will really use the new one or just have his old one PJ'd again.

I was just asking about the PJ. Thanks anyways though.
But isnt he just always using a PJ'ed Prostaff 6.1 Classic or the tour?

Povl Carstensen 12-26-2011 06:09 AM
I think not...

I say he's using the Tour 90, unless Karophite is a marketing term.

He is using the K6.1 tour painted as a BLX 90. Fact.

A thread search on this topic shows the discussions already on this topic.

Karophite is a marketing term (imo).

He uses a stiffness of around 65 a weight of around 364 grams and a balance of around 32.2 cm.

Reading these threads is like watching one of those "Finding Bigfoot" shows where the "expert" says, "It's a well known fact that bigfoots..." or "Bigfoots often..." when in reality no one knows for sure.
Unless someone has actually gotten one of Federer's actual frames and destroyed it by dissecting it to analyze the composition, then it's all purely opinion. Weights and balances can be verified by racket techs (I'll give you that).
But so much of the discussion here is purely guessing at best, and wishful thinking at worst. It's like the people who claim they can tell a grip size of someone's racket from a photograph. :roll:

His actual frames, including close comparison of the moulds with retail versions of the K6.1 tour and BLX - except cutting them open to analyse to compostion - have been done multiple times and discussed, with close-up photos, on this site.

Federer uses a frame which is made in the K6.1 Tour mould. Whether it's different on the inside or not is not known. But the dimensions, weight, balance, swing-weight, grip shape and size are all known.
