wow that is nice! so is the pj of the speed pro very new? or did i miss that when he played at brisbane. plus what strings were in them? hard to say, maybe the gut/lux hybrid. the pics seem to me to show different hybrids in the photos, look like 2 strings but one full lux, one gut/lux and one lux/gut. maybe hes deciding on the right setup.

Hmm...who's the lady in the background? Djokovic's hitting partner? :p looks like she's also holding a Head, but I don't think it's the same one as Djokovic's.

The beam looks huge at the upper hoop and the grip shape is different .....he is in trouble with this tweener-looking racquet :)

Hi all,

Enjoy!

I held one of his unstrung rackets yesterday. Once again, surprisingly it's not too heavy. About the same as my Liquidmetal Radical Tour with 20g of lead tape.

However, I observed that it was quite head heavy.
head heavy...interesting!
It is mainly TW equipment fetishes who use 13 oz +, 10 pt headlight frames - not ATP pros. Check out Jura's list in this forum.
 
She's some European player...dunno what's her name...but she's got a BIG tattoo on her left mid-to-lower back...

Djokovic was on the side of the court waiting for her to finish her hitting session.

And no she wasn't using a similar racket...

They all look like a gut/multi main and probably alu power mains or a string with a similar colour.

Yea i was about to post that. Are you sure it is his though?

could be just on his though. ivanovic and alot of players have there names on there rackets, could be though

I can't tell from the picture at all, so I am not sure! We will find out :). The name speed pro reminds of Prince.

Good point master stringer, but usually people have their name printed on the racket. This looks very much like a signature though, so it could possibly be a signature racket.

FANTASTIC pics. Thanks for posting! I see myself buying this racquet when it's released, if the specs suit. Love the color.

well, it looks like a hybrid, anyone guess if it's ALU rough? Also anyone want to guess on head size and tensions? just for fun.

I'm pretty sure that's he using some softer string on main and poly' on cross. Look closer and compare starting knot at top with knot at bridge. On starting knot look like sharp cut but not on the bridge. Do you guys think so, or it's just only me?

The racquet reminds me of a tweener like an extreme, although im not very familiar with the extreme, looks ok though def great pics:)

It does look like the beam width is a little wider like that of a tweaner. Also given that it is an 18x20 pattern the bottom and top crosses are pretty far from the frame which makes me think that the head size may be in the 100in. or slightly bigger size range. I am very curious to see this when it comes out, it doesn't seem like a frame that I would use but it would be a good demo.
