Default Can somebody explain the Yonex racquet lineage?

So is the Super RD Tour to the RDS 001 as the PS 6.0 is to the nSix-One Tour?

Can someone post a complete list of sticks that came before the RDS and RDX that are the prodecessors?

yeah...basically...since lleyton hewitt uses the super rd tour 90 w/ an rds001 pj and federer uses a custom mold of the ps 6.0 w/ an n6.1 pj

im not too familiar w/ yonex rackets..but i know that it's mp tour, rdx, rds

Ok
That is my racquet story, but in MP size, not MID
RD 7 -> SRD Tour 95 -> MP Tour 1 MP -> RDX 500 MP -> RDS001 MP
I've used all of them with Polylon 1.24 and no one of them played the same.
Sorry, I'll use the RDS001 today for the first time. I received them yesterday.
All previous required some leader in diferent weights and places. The only one perfect as came is the RDX500.
Now my love, but tomorrow?
Regards

What's an inexpensive Yonex racket that gives a decent amount of spin, especially on kick serves, that's the reason I use my currect stick, kick serves are pretty good with it...anyone know?

Try to find R-22, R-27, and SRD tour 90, then you can compare with the later Yonex models.

I remember Lleyton using (paintjob) a racquet before the MP Tour-1 but after the SRD Tour. Which is this?

Unkast, that would be the Yonex Ultimum RD-Ti 50. It came in a long version, as well.
