It is dishonest. It is like the Wilson Steam. No pro plays with that. The ones who have a steam paint job have rackets with a PWS. You can see it plan as day on tv. The steam does not have a PWS.
I doubt it would work, for even the "consumer pro models" are very hard to sell already, and therefore they do not have a very wide public appeal, and the "real pro models" would not change much, for their price would scare off the curious people...

Yeah, I know most of us here are using serious staff like Prestiges and BLX90's, but 90% of the recreational players do not visit this forum, and do not care so much about playing with the super-real pro stick.....
I mean, yes, maybe people who are frecuent visitors at this forum and such would buy those sticks, but who else?

More greed and corruption in pursuit of the almighty dollar...what else is new? Unfortunately I'm pretty sure TW endorses this practice as well.
