No, Luxilon Big Banger original. I think, if memory serves me correct 24/23kgs. The picture was taken at Wimbledon this year. I Managed to string a few form him while I was there.

Watch Gasquet get destroyed by Ferrer this weekend and payed close attention to his racquet. Without a doubt a paintjob. Not even same headshap as a microgel extreme. Total bs have more integrity and dont endorse products you dont use.

(I know everyone does it and it wont change but it still dosnt make it right)

Default he uses a painted liquid metal instinct.

He uses a custom extended liquid metal instict painted to look like a new head gel racquet. the tourna grip only fits 2/3 of the way on the grip. A special extended version that weighs over 13 ounces.

before he was plaing the Iprestige XL, he now uses the Instinct XL with Lux Alu, leather grip, and dampner.

This adds a lot of weight to the racket, makeing it over 12.5oz

Is it one of the best back hand rackets? Yes, is it one of the best serving and forehand rackets, No.

Also sucks *** at the net, if you are a basline basher than this is the racket for you, along with the RDS002Tour

Next year Gasquet will use the new gel instinct. The racquet has the same head shape. lol he going to paint his old instinct to look like the newer racquet because of the money.

Spaz boy.. I have mentioned before.. Why didn't they just paint it as the Instict in the first place if they were always going to be releasing it.. It was for that reason that I could never understand the Extreme painjob on his old LM frame.. Keep up.. funny....

Dude, you seriously need to think before you post.. What is your issue with this poster?

As for will he switch, then as he is probably in the best part of his career right now, I highly doubt it..

Probably won't switch unless they come out with XL version of microgel instinct.? as for that other poster, i have no issues, i wouldn't mind going chick hunting with Gasquet. If he does that kind of thing that is.
