Couldn't agree more on the slices.
I strung it with vs touch 52/ 4G 50 & found spin potential to be above average as well... but a little bit too much power for me.
so I tried YPTP Spin at 52 and had to cut it after 5 hrs... (wrist pain)
now trying YPTP 1.2 at 52 - no pain but would like more spin.
Will try Solinco Tour Bite 16L @51
Have you tried it with different string setup?
I have JUST switched- with much success and elevation in play for now-to the previous generation (YouTek IG) of the Radical pro that happened to be already strung at 70 ibs (yes, 70) with full bed of luxilon alu rough. first hit was basically love at first sight. i could 'feel' the ball as I grazed the ball up for the topspin generation and motion. i had to mention this in this thread (even though this is a thread for the 2014 lineup) because of my unexpected success and no arm problems thus far with the radical pro with such high string tension, which I presume, is assisted well in comfort by its very low stiffness/high flex, along with my affinity towards even-balance racquets. my friend who sold this racquet to me (who did not like it as much as me) told me that my compatibility with the high tension w/ the rad pro is attributed to my long swing motion on my groundstrokes-no problems with my 2HBH (although can be a bit too powerful if I do not swing through the entire motion); serve returns has been amazing, as well as my serve.
the only things I find having myself adjust to are the volleys, which seem to cause more instability than i presumed because of the tight string bed I presume. and the slice-which is the reason why the purported enhancements in slice with the new graphene rad pro
BUT, before I proceed with a demo, what are your thoughts with my potential demo/experience with the graphene rad pros? Part of me want to just stop wasting time tinkering with racquets, stick with the things that work, and invest more money into purchasing more IG rad pros and match them accordingly. on the other hand, my coach has been suggesting that I should consider a more heavier (or in other words head-light) racquet so that I allow more efficiency in generating controlled power from the racquet itself rather than my arm.so naturally I am eyeing the new Graphene rad pro like crazy but do you think stringing the Graphene rad pro at 70 will pose any problems? since the stiffness rating has increased a bit, is 60 ibs a reasonable adjustment? unfortunately I can't request for a 60 lbs strung demo hence my question to you guys. Finally, does the shift in balance really make a big difference in feel between the G pro and the IG pro? and if so, for better or for worse?
Thanks ahead of time guys
