Tecnifibre TFight 315 Ltd. 16/19 - Page 2

mlocke1322 · 02-08-2013, 11:55 AM

I'm starting to get a bit confused about this frame. What is the difference between the 315 LTD and the standard 315 on the Tecnifibre website? It looks to be weight and RA. To add to my confusion, I saw a competitor of yours post the 315 for pre-sale today. It is not listed as the limited but you can clearly see LIMITED on the side of the hoop in the photo. Are all 315's the limited model or is there really 2 different ones(regular and limited), both offered in 18x20 and then a standard 315 in 16x18 and a limited in 16x19?

Any help you can give in clarifying is appreciated.

I am not sure I understand your request - If they sold it in Europe, it would probably go for 180 Euro (like all other comparable sticks).

Can you buy it off TW USA and have it shipped to Europe. The shipping price should be similar to the EUR/USD conversion?

The problem is taxes/customs ... the racket will probably cost me the double !!!

Understand now ?

There are no plans for Tecnifibre to sell this racquet in Europe. Sorry.

Thanks,

Interesting -- I lived in Prague for 3 years and received MANY rackets form the USA -- paid (negotiated) $0 customs on most of them and a few times no more than $20 per racket, if brand new. The customs fee in the CZ was 20% of the value declared over $50.
How bad is it where you live?

I have to pay 23% taxes + custom taxes (+-40%)+ airport taxes(???) + Shipping = TF315 + ~140€

This is like a dream here ...

TW folks,

Safe to assume this is not a 98? I have one and Im about positive it is a 95. It also feels exactly like the pt630..and it has Head pallets under the grip.

Interesting.

Interesting.

The 315 is advertised to be a 98 square inch frame. You may be able to do your own at home tests to determine the actual head size if you are skeptical, but we believe it is safe to assume it is a 98".

The Pro Tour 630 is also a 98 square inch frame. According to our conversion tool, 630 square cm equates to 97.650195 square inches.

The new 315 ltds are for sure 98s............

Yes but head is always off on their measurements. Like their prestige mp is a 95, but it says 98.

Not a huge deal, i just wondered. It plays so much like a 95 to me and coming from the blade 98 and owning a dunlop 200 i feel like i can see the difference.

Gavna how do you know for sure? Im honestly curious, not doubting you or andy.

Bottom line is this racquet is flat out awesome.

Let's all agree that the racquet is awesome and celebrate it's awesome-ness.

All you have to do is put it up against a blade 98...... I just did it and the dims are the same. It's a 98.

It is definitely bigger than the Prestige MP

Power Player · 03-22-2013, 10:55 PM

Score then. It plays with the accuracy of a 95. 98 size explains the power boost and easier to use aspect of it too. Best of both worlds.

Power Player · 03-23-2013, 05:47 PM

Held it up against the Blade and I was wrong - it is a 98 as you all said. It just plays so controlled that I thought it was a 95. Very similar frame as the blade when they are next to each other.

I have romanced many racquets, but this one has taken it to another level of awesome for me.
