Seriously. I broke my BG mains last week. When I looked, it was the BG that was notched and not the OG crosses.

Can't take that bet, I'd be bankrupt.

G..E..O. I cut him off and say "Like the Toys R Us griafgfe righht"

He hangs his head in shame as his work mates are laughing histerically. he says yes and the other dudes thank me for such great service.

Now need some advice from tha masses. This dude I work withs wife wants to strartsplaying tennis. What would be a good racquet for broad just starting out? Guy doesnt want drop more than 80 beans on it.

haha, got a wee bit of a kick out of this one.

Hey, HW, you seem to be briefed on a vast array of strings. I am still having trouble finding the best set up for my Gamma's. I played two dogfight sets last night with my new hitting partner. Was able to win 7-5, 6-3. Felt alot better than last week when we played, but basically I want the playability and low power of Big Ace/Weisscannon with the spin of Topspin Cyberflash, and the durability of Big Ace/PSGD. Shake up that shaker and see what comes out for me... Anyone tried Blue Gear or Cyberflash mains with Big Ace crosses? I myself do not like full Big Ace nor full Blue Gear and was not a huge fan of full Duralast, but did not mind DVI's full Wilson Enduro Pro- but that was in the EXXXXtremes. But there has to be a string combo with everything that I want. I just need to find it.... SUGGESTIONS ANYONE???

Sup, anymore ideas? I know we are on string combination (number unknown).

I am hoping to drop off two frames today. Will just assume you are tied down with spring break kids, and are chained to the S&H courts.

and actually considering all the korean foodies (redundant i know) here, i've been waiting for the "alice, let's eat!" references.

and this thing tomorrow? will it be super organized? because i'll be bringing a friend, whom i'll be entering in the fastest serve contest. she played softball as a kid, and hooo boy, can she whip that racquet over her head.

Ill bring my ball also, just incase you decide to bail

Auzzie. I have no idea on strings fo you my man. I for somereason like the Kirscbaum Hybrix spin combo. but most poeple dont like supersmash spiky a whole lot. If I had money to burn I would go back the greatest hybrid I ever used. TF X-1 mains/TF redcode crosses. The redcode knaws though the biphase super quick. I may try that with some string savers though. I have never used stringsavers and kinda want to fiddle with them a tad.

I also really like the polystar energy string. to me it feels a little softer than blue gear. I had a hybrid of that in the mains and used maxim touch in the cross. Eventually you will find what your looking for.

Have you tried the Pro Poly Plasmas yet? I thought they were decent. Gosen is ok as a cross in hybrids, but I strung up a full job of gosen in my old yonex and it turned into freakin howitzer.

Just keep at it my man, one day you find you combo. at least you got the frame for now.

i have and briefly dats / tfm (my blk polly).

i like but im not too picky. doesn't seem too different from SPPP.

tfm1973 · 04-10-2009, 07:09 AM

oh - if it was on magma's aeropro drives i've hit with em. they were fricking sweet. great spin and feel. a really comfortable hit with a stick that is prolly a bit stiffer than i prefer so the strings definitely played a factor. plus they look mad cool. black strings = dirty evil game.

JRstriker12 · 04-10-2009, 07:21 AM

TFM and H-dub - I know you guys are into cars. How do you like the new turbo I put into my Civic SI?
