Hey everyone,
I believe I qualify for the babolat package (ranked #4 in my section ATM for 16 and unders), and I was wondering if I could contact them to receive a sponsorship for shoes and strings without actually getting the $300 racket package.
Thanks in advance

T hanks in advance

There is a shoe package, but it doesn't come with strings.

Hope I helped. Just curious, which section you from?

How are my chances with Dunlop if I'm 87 in my section? I really liked the 500 tour 4D and was contemplating switching to it.

I am 16 right now my birthday is in the middle of july. SHould i try to get my 16 rank better or should i just start playing 18s. If i play 18s will the company recoginize this and give me a break at all?

It never hurts to shoot an email, you never know, if your email is really good, maybe they'll give it to you...

Regarding the 18s ranking being a bit more lenient, I know for a fact that Kirschbaum is more lenient as the age groups go up....

Hey man, I am pretty sure I am switching to K-baum PLII... I really like it. Just a few complaints on the forehand but so far its good....

Have you ever tried hybriding it? .... and what are your opinions since you've switched to it for a little....

(BTW I believe we are now friends on FB) Haha.

Mrmo1115 I am just wondering for the dunlop deal, what bag and strings do you get an can you pick any racket you want?


Bag- Not sure, maybe the new Green one that Dunlop players were sporting at the Open, and the strings are some Dunlop Syn Gut's (I'd never use them) and yes, of course, any racquet.. (4D)

Does anyone know which racquet from dunlop plays like the k blade 98

I'd say the Dunlop 4D Aerogel 300 Tour...

http://www.tennis-warehouse.com/descpageRCDUNLOP-DAG3HT.html

In fact, the Kblade 98 shows up on the bottom where it lists ' Racquets that are similar"


Note: I was about to switch to the 300 T, when I finally decided that the grip shape, weight, and flex would be just too much for me to switch to and get used to... it's like the Flexpoint Prestige MP has a curse on me, never to leave it...

However, I am very antsy for the release of the YT Prestige MP, can't wait to try it out. (Skipped the MG line, didn't like it more than my FXP)

What does the package include?

well theres 3 packages

package A - 2 racquets, 1 bag that holds 10 racquets, 1 team shirt, 1 stencil kit.

package B - 3 racquets, 1 bag that holds 10 racquets, 1 team shirt, 1 box of string, 1 stencil kit,

package C - 4 racquets, 1 bag that holds 10 racquets, 1 team shirt, 1 box of string, 1 stencil kit.

Package A - 249 + SH
Package B - 359 + SH
Package C - 469 + SH

im gonna go with package b. idk what im gonna do with the string though because i use luxilon
 
yea for the 2 rackets,bag shirt,stencil, it is $250. For 3 rackets bag shirt, stencil, and strings it is $350, and For the 4 racket, bag, shirt stencil and string it is $450
 
Dunlops really easy. Kristin Mears is very flexible and even lets kids who don't even have national rankings obtain the deal of like 200 bucks for 4 racquets, a bag, strings, hat, stencil

I know this because I was on the verge of switching to Dunlop, but something held me back and I am still with my old Flexpoint Prestige MP and decided to wait on for the Youtek Prestige.

How did this happen? She told me to get the deal of $200 you need to be 300 nationally or less
