What is the grip shape similar to? From the photos it looks in-between a dunlop and wilson.

Indeed, it looks very much like a black painted Babolat APD+. I somehow like it. Looks mean, like a recently uncovered weapon from the secret service. I guess if James Bond was ever to choose a Tennis racquet for his movies, this would be a hot contender.

It would definitely rise some eyebrows if you walked onto court with this exotic stick. Specs are interesting, slightly heavier and less stiff than an APD+. However, no cortex, so I wonder how it feels and what it might do to the arm.

And yes, I'm also surprised how they get away with this obvious Babolat copy.
