I think that is some of it.

It will be a pain in the arse for the pros that use the EXO3 Tour, which is IMO, alongside with EXO3 Graphite, the only decent 100'' racquet in the market. They can't paint the holes LOL!
They should invest more in the Graphite line, and release extended versions of their racquets.

Yeah... they're too many of them. But it has been done. Flexpoint anyone?

I agree.

Besides midgets such as myself would like to play tennis to!

Currently the market doesn't offer any 28 inch sticks. Some players sticks are available in the 27,5 length - Babolat. But that's it.

I'll repeat myself: Bring back the Prince Precision Retro Longbody!

I believe that his tennis career has much to thank to POG.

I'm using a Prince TT Graphite Mid and i'm barely 1,80m. There's something about serving with this racquet that i've never found with any other.

Like Volkl, the racquet design studio of Prince is quite good so it will be interesting what they produce beyond perhaps the string pattern idea.
