Soderlings YT Radical

A_Instead · 08-03-2009, 08:56 AM

I was watching the big Swed hitting with Cilic this past weekend at the Legg Masson Tennis Classic and noticed that his grommets were black and not the white ones. I also noticed that he has his butt cap built up like a baseball bat.
He was hitting the living crap out of the ball compared to Cilic. Great fun watching those two. Do you think he is using the new YT Radical or a paint job of something else?

I'm sure it is a pj but I don't know of exactly what. Some kind of PT57 I'm sure but the buttcap is a custom build that priority one did for him.

It might be a PJ'd iPrestige because of the type of CAP grommets he has on his frame.

The cap grommets don't mean anything. You could cap a current youtek radical. all the cap means is the drill pattern is the same as the cap grommets.

Someone hasn't been paying attention.

Soderling uses the PT57A.

Here is a whole thread on Soderling's racquet.

With a very customized grip, that tapers considerably from the handle up.
