You could also try using something like Babolat Origin or Isospeed Cream... they may last longer. I have this in my Angell TC95 and TC97 16x19s, which are really open, and it is lasting really well.
You could try something like Tecnifibre Multifeel or Triax also... may last longer than just straight up Multi.

I just added 3g of lead tape starting at the 4th cross down to the 11th, so approx 10:00 and 2:00

Basing off your signature here but do you string the VCore HD at the same tension?I had my K90 done with Multifeel at 24kgs (53lbs).
Strayfire

I do in a full bed! It's a good basic tension to start with. I have thought about going down in tension for Summer though.
I am not the biggest guy and I think I would appreciate a little bit extra power.
The only racquet not strung with Multifeel at that tension is my Dunlop Maxply, which runs Rexis 1.25 @ 18kgs (40lbs)

Ok you were right. My strings broke in roughly 2 hours of play which was very disappointing.. I’ll probably restring it with a lower tension full poly. Any recommendations except for ALU?

Ah, well might have to try that setup out. From your own experience how durable is that setup? Because I can’t afford restringing rackets once a week tbh..

Interesting, i might actually have to try it. What gauge and tension do you use btw?

Any full poly recommendation?

Yes, although I would like the inside of the throat to be red and the Wilson logo to be in silver (gold works too in this case).
Also, a black or tan leather grip--REAL MEN USE THE HIDE OF A DEAD ANIMAL

Any one tried lower tension full ALU power bed?

Of course. It's really nice in the 90 although if you're using the 90 for its classic feel it's not the most conventional choice.

i Tried a full multi at 24kgs and it felt extremely harsh on my arm. I really feel like lower tensions is the way to go with the 90s. What is your fav poly? any recommendations?
Bender
G.O.A.T.
You have to remember that even if you don't like to go for low tensions the 90 needs a ~10% drop in tension to compensate for the smaller head size. I normally string at 55 lbs in 98-100 sq in racquets but on the 90 I would string between 47-50 lbs (usually around 47/48 depending on the string.
I like ALU Power and RPM Rough these days so that's what I'd use but if you find a full multi to be too harsh then obviously polys aren't going to be ideal for you. Perhaps go with the classic Champions Choice if you've not tried gut before? It goes well with a 90.

I think it was the tension that made it feel harsh tbh
I used the a couple of flavors of the tour 90 for 7-8 years before I switched to the RF97A last year. I used to string it with full poly topspin cyberflash 17 @ 60lbs.
I really miss that weighty but very headlight feel when I moved to the RF97A. But like the RF97A, if I nail the sweet spot, it's such a soft plush feel. It's It is a mighty stick indeed, too bad Wilson decided to move on.

too many square inches.
joking aside, I have 2 k90's in very good condition that I rarely hit with, but will never let go.

Only recently came back to these. Used to use it when I was 14 before moving to the RF. But switching back now. It’s just the perfect racquet imo

I remember how happy I was when I got a NOS 95 Blx.My new baby
How much did you pay for it?
MasterZeb

Near about what you pay for a new racquet nowadays. So not bad. Worth it imo considering the scarcity of a untouched frame.

Arrived today, seriously 9.5/10 condition. Unfortunately to my surprise it weighs a whopping 380g.. 20grams over my preffered specs. My other 90 frames have always come in at around 350-357g stock...
Anything I can do about this? And how is it even possible, this stick will be 385 with overgrip ffs

@J011yroger why's the overgrip look like it's in a wet t-shirt contest?
