New Wilson Pro Staff 90

m00shie · 01-17-2013, 04:51 AM

Hello everyone,

I've just upgraded myself from BLX Six One Tour to the supposedly updated version of the Wilson Pro Staff Six One 90 from a very popular tennis shop (which I frequent a lot). According to the shop owner, the racket only has cosmetic changes (Racket now writes "Pro Staff Ninety" instead of "Pro Staff Six One 90" and improvement to the grip (which I have no idea about as I have not use the previous).

Upon reaching home, I realized a difference in the spec. The updated racket is 12pts HL compared to previous which I believe to be 9pts HL. Other specs are the same.

I just want to verify if there is anyone who have purchase the new racket as well to see if the specs are correct as I'm worried that I might have purchased a fake. However, looking closely at it, it doesn't seem to be a fake.

Anyone can help me on this?

Thanks!

Wilson Usually has bad quality control. If its from a tennis shop it is most likely real

Could the difference be strung/unstrung?

K90, BLX 90, PS 6.1 90 all have 12HL written on the racquet. This is the unstrung spec. With strings it is 9HL.

Yea, the remaining 2 rackets were the same. There were limited stock in the shop as the updated model just arrived. Other shop don't even have any in stock yet.

Thanks everyone else for the comment, I left out on checking if the specs is strung/unstrung. Will compare the specs again.
