    Hello Geoff, I just came across some postings saying that you do racquet handle customizations? Are you still available to do that?
    D
    Hi Geoff,

    Someone recommended you to me for custom foam molds. Can you swap the pallets? I like Yonex pallet which need to replace the original pallet of Wilson Pro Staff St Vincent, can you do it professionally?

    Thanks,

    Danny

    Hello Danny
    I don’t have a Yonex 1/4. I could make one but that adds to the expense. To make a mould is $150 and to mould the pallet is $50. The materials are very expensive to make a mould and it is very time consuming.

    Thank you for your response. I understand your situation. Do you have a website for your work? Do you customise the handle/pallet if I give you my racquets. I want them reduced from 3/8 to 1/4.

    Just one question:

    If I am able to purchase a pair of Head Prestige Classic with suspension grips. There were crack on the collar of the handle where the sloped bevels were. Can you make new mould so you can put the original parts into the new one? Is this possible?

    If not sure, I can send you a link of what it look like. Please email me at dannynguyen@tpg.com.au for the photos.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello @JJ10 . If you want to talk live call me at 714-330-2937. Silicone is primarily used to dampen vibration (makes frame feel softer)

    Hi Geoff, first thanks for the reply on the thread. So ok my two 97s I put lead under the OG for now and some in the head outside still not under the bumper yet. I'm trying to find a good setup (one has 8gr handle + 2gr head, other has 10gr handle + 4gr head) On my last pro staffs I ended up putting lead under the leather grip, but I read that silicon softens the frame too and kills some extra vibration

    Hi @Geoff is the 3x3 box pattern doable for hybrid / 2 piece jobs?
    Geoff
    Geoff
    Hello @Henery

    A box pattern is not doable on a hybrid. The main purpose of a box or around the world is to start the cross strings at the top of the frame. Obviously with a hybrid you would have no issue starting at the top.

    Thanks

    Hi @Geoff, would you happen to know how a gut/poly hybrid affect RF97 balance? I have two RF97 and one is gut/poly, and the other one is poly hybrid. The one with gut/hybrid champions choice seem to feel a bit more head heavy and has more plow. Just wondering if the string setup somehow increases the swingweight and move balance point? Thanks
    Geoff
    Geoff
    In my opinion the actual difference in swingweight would be basically negligible. It would depend on the gauge and string type. I would make sure the unstrung swingweight on both frames are the same. 1 gram at 12 o clock affects swingweight by 4 units. So I doubt the difference in weight between the 2 string set ups is even close to 1 gram.

    How much was that Wilson stand? And where'd you get that carpet? Thanks
    Geoff
    Geoff
    Sorry for not seeing this. I won the Wilson stand on a Facebook contest that Wilson had. The carpet can be ordered at Wayfair.com. Comes in 3 different sizes.

    Geoff,

    I don't know if you remember but you and I hit at your neighborhood courts almost two years ago when I was doing a rotation at Vanderbilt. I was wondering about your working on an Angell for me. I'm not sure how to send a PM but my email is DANMANTENNIS @ GMAIL . COM.

    Thanks and looking forward to hearing from you.

    Hi Geoff,

    I believe you commented on my thread in the rackets forum regarding matching. Would this be something you could do? I can be contacted on here through PM or at evandrew01@gmail.com.

    the specs on the hairpains are very close: #1: 256g BP: 384mm, #2: 255g 387mm, #3: 256g 385mm.

    Thanks!

    Geoff, I have a question, and don't know how to get a hold of you :( I am looking at a frame, but I think it needs a handle (it's a prostock bare hairpin, Prince) Do you do that kind of work? either msg me through TT or my email is johnathankeithblack@yahoo.com Thank you very much, and thank you for your time.

    Hi Geoff, just had a chance to see your Pro Room RF97 review from a year back, dunno how I missed it. But have you had a chance to take it to RDC machine to measure the flex RA? Would be pretty interested at the info. Thanks
    Geoff
    Geoff
    Hello PSC85. It has a RA of 71. There inna sticker on the throat from the pro room. I also measured it at 71 on my RDC

    Not sure how to send a message on here. I'm interested in your Racquet Diagnostic Machine thread.

    Did you have a particular question or asking if it is for sale?

    Geoff said, "Hi Irvin, I felt pretty stupid for not reading more carefully!"

    I assume you mean you did not read about the brake. Well welcome to the club we have all done that at least once.

    Geoff,
    You need a contact email and would be nice if you posted a url for website in your TW "Contact Info" Please send me this info at joesch@woodtennis.com Joe

    Hey Geoff,
    Sorry, at the moment my phone is not working. I am looking to get my frames matched. If you could, could you email me at a l e x _ c l e r i h e w @ Y a h o o without the spaces.
    I would love to know your prices and your customization methods if possible!
    Irvin
    Geoff MattCrosby has no brake on his machine. If he did and used the brake the top crosses in the O Ports would be pulled in a straight line with no friction at the frame. Therefore all those crosses where the brake is used are pulled at true reference tension whereas all other strings are pulled at ref tension - frame friction. O Ports damned if you do and damned if you dont.
