Default If Ferrero's POG is a LB, why does it have 18 crosses?

I was curious about what POG Ferrero used. So, I followed my own advice and searched. Apparently, he's using a POG LB. Hummm, but isn't that raquet supposed to have a 16x19 string pattern? And doesn't this pic show 18 crosses?

What am I missing?

He uses the Longbody, which has an MP head; 100 sq. inches to be exact.

I think an oversize Longbody POG was available, TW just doesn't carry it. 107 sq in head, much like the Michael Chang Graphite. But yes Ferrero uses the 100 sq in version.
