Fabfed,

Thanks for the pics. And for being flexible with all the requests, your purchases have really helped all of us in the pro player's gear section.

Just thought you'd like to know with all the trolling going down.

Some guy or gal, green with envy posting crap all over the place.

It appears that the crap was removed by the moderators.

So you really didn't miss anything.

Just for my understanding, are these measurements taken when the racquets are unstrung? I'm guessing, yes.

Fabfed,

Just would like to extend a big thank you for all of the pictures and for doing so many requests. My friends and I have really enjoyed browsing through all of your threads and viewing your beautiful acquisitions. It's partly why I've now signed up as a member on this forum

PS - Don't let the haters get you down; there will always be the doubters.

mustn't forget that me and theonehander were trolling him, and so he also started making threads insulting us.

I had good fun with him, haha.

This weight seems consistent with the weight that Greg Raven has listed - 360g. The balance and SW there are 32.0cm and 370 if I remember correctly so don't be surprised tomorrow when Fab says he measured it three times and it came out 320mm 321mm and 322 mm.

Congrats Fabfed on yet another great acquisition! I have a few questions, if you don't mind me asking .

1. What overgrip does Djoko use??
2. What is his gripsize?

Again, congrats man!

I haven't commented yet, I just wanted to say congrats to FabFed! Another great piece for the collection. I don't mean to start another round of discussions, but I support what you do with your items. I mean, for example, I have an autographed Chipper Jones baseball bat (he was my favorite baseball player of the 90s). According to some on here, I'm being ridiculous if I do not take it out and take a few cuts with it. I have personal value in the item itself.

Cheers!

So for a start it is 32.8cm BP, but if he measure it again it will be 32.0 cm BP ??

Please explain it better...

Do variances such as where the dampener is placed, how the overgrips are wrapped (such as how much overlap there is) and minor differences in the placement of lead affect the balance?

Great sharing, Fabfed!!

Could you please do this on Nole's racket to see what's inside the grip?




I believe that it's not harmful. Thanks!!

Given what's known about the frame, I'd guess that most people with Pro Stocks that have looked know what to expect.

If you're going to open it up, don't use a metal instrument as you can pretty easily cause a few scratches.
