    @Prince Tennis Official can we expect more reissues (even if it is a limited number) of previously loved and iconic frames?

    Prince Tour 100p thread

    Current gravity mp? That frame and its previous iterationa has been on my radar but a new frame is a least of my concerns right now.

    With you on the TO price for the old CX. I'm tempted on the CX200 305. At that price it's a bargain!

    Prince Tour 100p thread

    I've actually been semi looking around to see if any places still sell the 2019 100p. I think the stiffer layup can improve off center responses but so far it looks like I'm too late!

    TW Matching Service Advice Needed

    That's really close. I say take it. 0.5 HL difference is easily fixed. You may not even feel the difference. If you want them both 8.5 pts HL then 1.5g to 2g max of TW tungsten tape under the butt cap will bring it in line.

    Phantom Pro 100 (16x18) vs Phantom Pro 100 (18x20)

    The mains spacing on the phantoms are denser than most 16x18. I am also a flatter hitter and the 100p works for my strokes. The lower powered response also helps keep the ball in check.

    Racquet recommendation for weak wrist

    I am dealing with a wrist injury myself although I am much closer to a full recovery than you are. However, as others mentioned, multifilament strings are your friend at this moment. In terms of racquet, I went back to my phantom 100p. The low flex and multifilament strings created a nice...

    Prince Textreme Tour 100 (310) Thread

    Also was going to suggest Prince premier control 16. Low powered, great feel and comfort. My go to string because I also don't get along with poly. Only thing is spin might be lacking to what you're used to but if comfort is key then go for it.

    TT 100P Appreciation Thread

    If you're after dwell and lower powered response then Prince premier control is a great string. At least try a hybrid if you must have a poly main to get some of that back.

    I've noticed Prince take more time for updates.

    It’s very hard for a top fallen brand to come back and get back to the top.

    They could try signing on local clubs to sell and endorse their product. Get some sponsored coaches to coach kids and stuff. They just need some sort of a representation at the very least. I did notice more Dunlops at AO and I think being the official ball sponsor helped get the brand name out...

    Pince Tour 98 best TW rating ever?!

    I am a one hander but I haven't hit the tour 98. I usually have the B98 strung with Prince premier control 16. The demo of the ATS tour 100p demo had yonex poly tour pro. Surprisingly the results off the ground were about the same. I didn't feel like I gained more control with the extra 2 mains...

    Kwon! That was freaking awesome dude! From lucky loser to a champion!!

    He had RBA pressing a bit to end points. Awesome final. Let's see if he jumps on the yonex bandwagon.

    Soon-Woo Kwon with blacked out Yonex

    Surprised at the power he got out of a vcore pro. But then again he is an atp pro. Very consistent hitting with just the right amount of control and power. Controlled aggression is a good way to describe.

    He looked extremely comfortable out there with it against Ymer.

    Question about reducing grip size

    If it is brand new, give it a few more weeks of play. The grip will eventually compress down a bit.

    2021 Yonex VCore Pro Official Thread

    I have a 97L and believe for casual or social play it is worth a look. I initially demoed the 310 version but wanted something light (always have the option to add weight if need be). I found the swingweight to be really low (measured 3 and were between 271 to 274 - translates to low 300s strung...

    Pince Tour 98 best TW rating ever?!

    Could come down to 1hbh or 2hbh. I got a friend who likes gravity tour. The only knock was it wasn't as whippy for his 1hbh drive but it sliced very nicely.

    2021 Yonex VCore Pro Official Thread

    The VCP97 310 I demoed was 8.5pts HL with no overgrip and 326g strung. I think the trend I'm seeing lately is static weight will be on spec but balance pt and swingweight is a bit more wild now. Perhaps post covid they've had to loosen their tolerances?

    2021 Yonex VCore Pro Official Thread

    Not banking on many responses but has yonex lowered the unstrung swingweight on the 97L/290 model? I was sure it was 285 in the previous models with a strung swingweight of about 315 but the places I've called here in Australia have given me unstrung swingweights of about 275. Anyone played with...

    Prince Official - Racquets

    Coming from the beast 98 the launch angle is lower. Fed the ball into the net here and there. Topspin wise I didn't much notice a difference. The main spacing in the middle is very close. The 2 extra mains come in towards the outer parts of the stringbed but the cross spacing was definitely...

    Prince Phantom 100P - help/advice needed

    Isospeed professional classic 1.22 is light. Next time it's worth doing the matching service. I bough the 1st gen phantom 100p and was wary of QC variables so I asked for the most easy to swing in a batch. To my delight I landed one with 284 swingweight unstrung and 11pts HL.

    swing weight of a racquet

    For multifilaments/synthetic gut, it has added 30 pts for me in a 100sqin 16x18 and 98sqin 16x20. Polys weight more so probably +2/3 pts more, depending on the type of string and gauge.

    Prince Tour 100p thread

    I had a session with the ATS tour 100p last night. It appeared to be strung in yonex poly tour pro 1.25mm. Strung up with an overgrip it came in at 331g so static weight was about right. Balance was 9pts HL with unknown swingweight but it felt quite substantial (possibly over spec). Off the bat...
