    Wilson Pro v2 overgrip coming

    I'm wondering if the increase durability will mean a slightly thicker overgrip like Toalson's Asterista Grip.

    Thanks TW for allowing me to test Head's Lnyx Spin 2 rPet. Just received via UPS. Black strings are 16G and look and feels shaped, while grey strings are 17G and look round. Excited to try shaped/round hybrid on my TF Tempo 298. Perfect timing because I was ready to cut out my round poly...

    RF 01 series

    I had a chance to demo the R01 Future for an hour during a demo day sponsored by a local tennis shop. I arrived to the courts late and the RF01 and Pro's were picked first by participants. I reluctantly picked up the Future to play test while I waited for my chance at the 01 and Pro...

    Tennis Warehouse Playtest: Head Extreme 2024 (Pro and MP)

    I've restrung my Extreme Pro with a full bed of Head Lynx Tour 17 at 46lbs. Plays much better than what I had originally with the Lynx Tour/MLT hybrid in my previous post. Launch angle with full Lynx Tour is better which was expected full a full bed of shaped poly. However, I found the...

    Tennis Warehouse Playtest: Head Extreme 2024 (Pro and MP)

    A few years ago I developed tennis elbow from work related tasks. At the time I was playing tennis with a full bed of medium/stiff polys. My TE got to a point where I couldn’t play tennis without feeling sharp pain. I then went with soft poly/multi hybrid strung in the mid 40’s and that...

    Tennis Warehouse Playtest: Head Extreme 2024 (Pro and MP)

    No worries. The placard was removed before weighing. I already have the racket strung and brought it out to play today. Lynx Tour mains 48lbs and MLT crosses 50lbs. But here is the difference of the plastic grip sleeve (about 1 gram). So I guess the static weight of the racket came...

    Tennis Warehouse playtest: Solinco Hyper-G / Hyper-G Round

    So excited to play with the hybrid setup that I brought it out first time to play a match against a decent 4.0 doubles duo. Nothing like trial by fire, right? ;) Right off the bat, the strings felt comfortable. Strings strung 45lbs edged mains and 47lbs round crosses. Didn’t feel like the...
