He was still using a PS 85, but with a 6.1 Hyper Pro Staff paint job.
Really bad PJ... I saw one up close.. looked like an 8 year old did it.. it was clear he was not using the 6.1..LOL

Now, the picture I posted above could be a PS 85 with flanges added where the Y throat meets the head of the racquet.

SFrazeur is correct.
In the early part of 2002, Federer used a PS 6.0 85 with a HPS 6.0 95 Tour red paintjob (similar paintjob to the HPS 6.1 except a matte instead of glossy finish). Then the latter half of 2002, he used a PS Tour 90 with the same HPS 6.0 95 Tour red paintjob. He then switched the retail PS Tour 90 black paintjob in the spring of 2003.

I count a 16 x 18 string pattern in all the pictures of him with the hyper ps thing. The PS 6.0 85 has the 16 x 18 pattern, while the tour 90's have 16 x 19 (correct me if I'm wrong though).
I do count the 16 x 19 pattern in the tour 90 pictures and ncode tour 90s

PS 85 = 16 main, 18 crosses
PS TOUR 90, n6.1 90, (K)6.1 90 = 16 main, 19 crosses
It is hard to count the crosses on the TOUR 90 w/ the HPS paint job.
Here is a better picture for you.
I think so too, although, it does not look as good on a PS 85-there's only one true skin for that cat-as the intended racquet.
