93-95 sq inches.
weight: 12.5 sw: 352 beam: 22mm length: 27 or 27.5 pattern: 16x19 leather grip square grip shape in 4 1/2 burgundy glossy paint with gold letters isometric head shape So basically, it's the RD Power 10 95 that I play with. It works, so I don't fix it if it ain't broke.

Mine's the best.
Just joking, you guys rock. Those are all quality sticks. We should all just start a company. Imagine...a company with like 8-10 different player's sticks, with no gimmick of the month technology or clown-graphics...well be rich, and doing the world a huge favor.

custom racket
Hey Classic:
You mention "weight with lead tape" in your post... If it's your own custom designed stick, why would you need to add lead tape???

Ok, in the spirit of things, here goes Head size 98 sq in Length 27 inches Weight 12.2 ounces (346 grams) or within .2 ounces Balance 8 points head light Swingweight 323 Stiffness 63 Beam width 20 mm String Pattern 16 X 19 Grip Volkl leather wound right handed And I would like it painted yellow and black, but the black could be in splotches. It would be cool to have either solid yellow or yellow with a fish scale kind of detail on it. What's that you say? They already make this racket? It's called the C10? Oh well, nevermind.....  |

Prestige Classic -- I've never hit with a St. Vincent, although I've hit with later versions of the PS 85 and I own a PS 6.0 95. I'd like to try one, but really, didn't they stop making then around 1991? Any that are left are probably dead, expensive, counterfeit, or all of the above.
I use the Estusa PBB and I posted the specs on my racquet(s) with a few modifications that I figured would make it even better. It gave me some food for thought. The one thing I specified that I have no control over is the flex, which is just a little flexier than the posted spec on the PBB. I actually think the PBB is more flexible than its listed specs, at least compared to other racquets with published specs. BC |
