Ivo's paintjob not doing the job...

... of hiding the true racquet underneath. The black is wearing away to reveal the goldish color of his Flexpoint Instinct. The paint is also wearing away from the Flexpoint holes as well.

Great Obsevration! But I don't get what the pj is supposed to look like.

Hahaha
Man I feel bad for him, he deserves a real sponsor

ayuname · 06-24-2009, 06:37 PM

Is it me or is that handle extremely small?

dincuss · 06-24-2009, 07:44 PM

^^Its you, its actually mega huge

featherlight · 06-24-2009, 07:52 PM

the racket he uses could be a PS limited

just joking

OliverSimon · 06-24-2009, 08:01 PM

Its a tough decision for anybody who picks him up because he sure does not want to get rid of that racquet. He really likes it!

Figjam · 06-25-2009, 12:15 AM

well the flex "points" are REALLY obvious!

I held it whilst I was getting my rackets strung on tuesday. The grip is massive and hand made by Nate.

Ivo slightly changes his grip during his service motion... i could not believe my eyes when i saw that first alive.... there is a point in his serve when he holds his racquet with his palm bent around his monster grip but no fingers on... big hands....

In length I mean, not size. But I guess it's his change of grip.

wow thats very visible(to an average TW member) at least

Who would want to sponsor him? Consumers can't relate to a 6'10" tennis player with a massive serve and very little game otherwise. He also plays with racquet that is difficult to PJ.

His strings seems to be stenciled with babolat, so is his strings being sponsored by Babolat?

OliverSimon · 07-04-2009, 09:54 AM

no his racquet is sponsored by babolat but they cannot find a pj for him.
