great. seems like you had the same reaction of Chris from TW. i'm still waiting for a heavily discounted LE to appear on the big auction site.

it's from "Yoda", a Weird Al Yankovic parody of "Lola" by the Kinks.


BTW how had you found the Suspension Grip on the Prestige Tour?

[drakulie]

Great racquet, that suspesnion grip really does an excellent job making the hits feel softer, and taking out the vibration, but I enjoyed the classic more. I like the raw feel. The suspension grip also make the racquet feel a bit flexier, although it may just be the way the racquet feels at contact.

You mentioned Christ from TW. Did he recently hit with a trisys 260 mp?

I recently had it strung with a full poly. the SG really takes out a big portion of the discomfort.

according to head the LE is "an exact replica of the original Radical used by Agassi in 1993". when chris playtested the LE for 3 weeks in November 2006 he fell in love with it. The TW team gave that 1993 re-issue the best set of combined scores ever.

Oh, ok. Your post confused me , because I hit with the original mid plus (from early 90's), not the LE Oversize version. I though you meant Chris from TW recently hit with the same racquet as me ...Thanks for clearing that up.

[keithchircop]

i misread. thought you hit with the OS. my bad.

Nah, where is that Jedi line from?

I'm a schoolteacher. If I asked a young boy to retrieve a tennis ball from inside my shorts, that would be real funny.

[drakulie]

As a school teacher,

1. Why would you be wearing shorts;
2. why on earth would you have a ball mistakenly go into your shorts?


Hmmmm. I worry about our educational system.

See Drak, I can see a ball rolling in your shorts. Heck I can see a bus rolling in there, you and your MC Hammer shorts.
