    My fear is that they wont sell it over here. I've noticed the purple Nadal shirt in on TW Europe but not TW US.

    Has anyone seen the shirt that Tiafoe wore the other day in the bright Crimson? Will that drop in the US?

    Did the US ever get the yellow version of the jersey Rafa wore in the FO final? TW only seems to have the blue one and I never got a reply from TW on my email asking about this. I think they had it in TW Europe a while back.

    Adding only a few grams of lead?

    To try to clarify. This is my first time trying to do this sort of thing so I was playing around with the tool to see what might be possible in the first set of screen shots and got it closer to what I think I want in the 2nd set of screen shots. If you look at the second set of screenshots. I...

    Adding only a few grams of lead?

    I demoed Radical MP, Ezone 98, new Pure Strike (I played with the first pure strike), and the Vcore. End of the day I liked the Vcore the most. The stability issue doesn't ruin my game or anything, it's just that a noticed it once in a while. Since I'm in 2 new Vcores I'm going to give it a...

    Adding only a few grams of lead?

    Example of what I got in the tool. IIRC if the weight is in the throat it won't impact swing weight as much. You might be able to counter balance by adding to the handle. Tool could also be wrong.....

    Adding only a few grams of lead?

    I was thinking of customizing my Yonex Vcore 98s. Overall I like the stick but I have seen a few times where it gets a little wobbly. It's pretty head light. I was playing around with the racket customization tool and I just want to maybe move it from 6pts headlight to 5 or 4 pts to add a...

    40+ players out there: Do you go bigger (head size) or stick with your good ol' small head stick?

    I still find the 98 sq in - 100 sq in rackets to be the sweet spot. I don't see the need to go bigger... at least not right now.

    Black Code 4s

    Just put 4s 17 gauge in my Yonex Vcore 98's. Strung one at 52 and the other at 48. Fresh off the machine, very stiff, felt like a board to me. A day later it settled in and gave really good control, bite and spin. It's on the stiffer side still, but control is top-notch. No fear of going...

    Looking to Upgrade from 1st Gen Babolat Pure Strike

    Demo Day 2 - What a difference a day made. So got together with some of my regular dubs groups. It was warm enough to hit for 10 mins and warm up outside. In the bubble, all the big hitters were on my court. I forced myself to play more with the Vcore and the PS since I wanted to make sure I...

    Looking to Upgrade from 1st Gen Babolat Pure Strike

    Demo last night, so far the ranking is: 1. Radical MP - Solid from the baseline, plow through was great for a 11.2 oz racket, was able to accelerate on my serve. It could be the demo strings but felt a little "hot" at the net sometimes, but still good response at the net with solid contact. Got...

    Looking to Upgrade from 1st Gen Babolat Pure Strike

    Sounds good... man this demo list is getting long. I was watching the Ezone 98 reviews this weekend. One of my friends also had good things to say about the radical.

    Looking to Upgrade from 1st Gen Babolat Pure Strike

    Have you hit with the 300 RS? I have to say the Tecnifibre frames look great and every review gives them high marks.

    Looking to Upgrade from 1st Gen Babolat Pure Strike

    I find when I string lower I tend to go a bit long. I could try a thicker string, maybe 16 at 44lbs? Thanks for the input. Plusher feel might be nice. Don't know why but I noticed one of the the rackets started having a high "ping" sound when hit. I don't think it's cracked but the sound...

    Looking to Upgrade from 1st Gen Babolat Pure Strike

    Been looking at the new 3rd Generation Pure Strike and I'm wondering if it's worth the upgrade from the 1st generation? Anyone upgrade from the 1st to the 3rd generation stick? While I love my Pure Strikes, I just not playing/practicing as much (work, kids, etc...) and I'm thinking of maybe...

    Wow, this thread it still going. I haven't been here in years. I'm still in NOVA. I'm looking to hit a bit more over the spring. Been playing dubs at Ida Lee in Leesburg.
