Yep, flexbar is great, do inside-in and inside-out twists, and complement it with negative-resistance wrist curls.

Actually Ruud matches up better with Djocker than Carlitos: - more GS experience, won't be as tight as a drum - much more patient in creating rally patterns than going for big bombs - plays better defense-- has a much better backhand slice - doesn't cramp like a hyena in heat I think Ruud...

Yeah OP, I'm not buying tickets to see Carlitos run like a bunny rabbit chasing down winners! Shot-making is what wins at Slams, not running around the court like a bantam rooster.

Carlitos was a cramp waiting to happen. Overtrained the squats and down-ups-- made for calves and thighs that were tight as a tick. And it was stupid to run down every ball...! One must measure the risk of injury vs the probability of winning any given point. Crash and burn!

Tried my new Mid with Velocity MLT @ 53lbs, way too boardy, going to try Solinco Confidential @ 50lbs next.

Which frames are these? Mine are the Mid 93. Did I just get two from a bad batch?

I prefer to know the actual frame length, not including plastic guard, like Wilson does. I guess there's no industry standard, but Head was always the outlier, when they previously used outer dimensions for head size.

Why cut racquets 4mm short, then add plastic guard to say spec'd at 685mm total? Why not market as a "shorty" frame at 26.75"? If Prince previously marketed a frame at 27.25", why shouldn't Head correctly market their frame as 26.75"

Not saying that, why doesn't Head use a full-length 685mm mold, instead of 681mm, then adding a 4mm head-guard to make it 685? Why does Head include plastic in their frame spec?

The point is Head includes the head guard in the 685mm spec and Wilson does not in their 685.8 spec. So Wilson‘s frame is about 5mm longer and a true 27”. The guard is not part of the frame, do you agree? No surprise they do this as it’s consistent with overstating the specs for head area in...

Recently ordered two MP Mids from TW a week apart, one weighs 317g, the other 325g (spec is 320g). Just measured the length, and damn if both of these Mid frames are about 1/4" short of 27"-- more precisely, the frame itself is 68.1cm, the guard is 4mm, so that's 68.5cm, one mm short of 68.6cm...

I play with a RF97, and demo'd a MP in a 4.5 league match. Played a clean first set, winning 6-1, hitting nice placement shots, especially DTL OHBH, nice lively slice serves in the deuce court, and out-of-position defensive slices-- felt like I could put the ball anywhere on the court. Much...
