Default What is up with this racket?

So i was searching for some one of a kind rackets and i came to this tennis site
and i'm a big head fan so i decided to check the head rackets
and i came across this

http://www.doittennis.com/rackets/he...ical-elite.php

i ve seen Ti.radical elites before, but isnt this a microgel paintjob?
is it a mistake, normal thing, or a cheat?

It's a cheap racquet sold at big chains like Target.

In other words, poop.

Seen the same one at Sports Authority, it's worth the contents of a weird guy's toenail jar...

It'll happen sooner or later. Though I do work at TSA and we don't have them yet.

It does say Ti. Radical Elite on it, wouldn't be very convincing...

It would be like trying to pass off a Big Bubba as a Prostaff 85...
