    Pure Storm Tour GT Club

    I've played for about a week with a youtek prestige pro vs pure storm gt tour and we have exactly the same thought. Besides the lower sw of prestige pro,I have more racquet head speed with the PSTGT.

    which head size racquet do you prefer and why?

    The "control" thing is in my mind for sure,it's a matter of perception but the frame shots I really feel it's from the smaller head. Look in this movie how do I hold the racquet face(it is "looking" at the ground),I didnt realised that until I made it;to get some help here on the forum.(it is...

    which head size racquet do you prefer and why?

    95-97 sq I tried 90'' but I have to open the racquet face a bit more that I'm used,if I dont I get frame shots. I tried 100'' but seems too big and I feel I loose a bit of control.

    The TFight 320 18x20

    Maybe that is the problem with Tecnifibre;even if the majority on the forum sais the so called technologies on the racquets are just marketing,when a new line appear they need a motivation to buy it.It is not enough to see a new racquet from the same mold. The VO2 models I see it grows on...

    The TFight 320 18x20

    I dont know but I've seen good reviews about the 18x20. Too bad many people dont look more often to Tecnifibre;they have good quality,one of the best on the market I think.

    The TFight 320 18x20

    A few days ago I was planning to buy 2 racquets of the same type and dont look back even if they will feel that were not for me;I was tired in buying-selling-trading racquets and when I had a match,instead on focusing the game,to think I dont have the right tool. Not beeing able to demo,I start...

    Federer's racquet and retail

    :D I'm sorry,now as I read it again,I have to really focus to understand what I've said. The short story: Federer's racquet is a little lighter than retail,becouse if you add 8g on the head to a retail K90 the result will be something in the 370g area(with overgrip);not a big deal if you ask...

    When will TW Cease "Reviewing" the Same Player Rackets??

    When I first try a KPS88 I was disapointed.I've read so many reviews speaking of the power of that racquet but I couldnt do anything good with it. I felt the ballance was not for me(not the weight).I've added a few gramms of lead tape at 3&9,replaced the leatgher grip with a syntethic one and...

    Federer's racquet and retail

    Federer's racquet and retail

    Yes,the strung weight was with overgrip so without og (-8g ;-10g) thats the same weight as the retail. What I didnt knew was the swingweight,I thought it is the same as the retail too. R1CKSO,what's the swingweight of your racquet now?

    :D this was ironic But my question is not the mold of fed's and retail,but the specs only. Does all I wrote above have a good logic or not?

    Huge news about Federer's racket!!!

    Pros use old racquets only becouse they are playing with what they were used to play when they became pros. I know an ex pro from my town http://www.atpworldtour.com/Tennis/Players/Le/B/Bogdan-Leonte.aspx who is still playing with a Fischer Pro 98 ft(295 g but with lots of leadtape) only becouse...

    Federer's racquet and retail

    I have a question that I dont think it was answered yet, We all know Federer's racquet specs are the same(or verry close) to the retail racquet but...his sticks have lead tape on the head and I assume they have silicone in the handle too. The retail racquet has foam filled handle so I will argue...

    BLX90 and silicone!

    I remember first time when BLX six one tour appeared on the market,a guy on this forum said that this model has silicone in the handle? I cant find that post,can anybody confirme that?

    help me with some tips! (video)

    That too I know,but the big problem now it's the inconsistent strokes we make,even if the ball is right next to us.But the stroke should be better(hit without thinking) to let us concentrate on the footwork. I see...when he strikes,he brushes verry much.That's what a coach who was passing said...

    Here is me and my friend on a Tuseday morning. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2BpKJcfR6iI (watch in full screen;low quality) Both get a little frustrated,sometimes we can play so well for our level,keep the ball in medium peace rallies,and other times(like today) cant even keep the ball...

    Would Federer have won today?

    If Nadal was playing against Federer,he had been more relaxed and his serve would have been better.

    Federer's loss just proves...

    Wow,so many barks at Federer now.This reminds me of a pack who shakes the tail arround the leader and when the leader gets ill or old they banish him.

    Who is the Bigger Jerk?

    I think it is unfair to give Stosur that point but these are the rulles I guess; but I am happy Stosur won,here game delights me.

    Dunlop Aerogel 4D 300 TOUR Lead tape?

    I added lead tape from 8 o'clock to 4o'clock and a leather grip;from my experience is better to counter the weight in the handle with a leather grip(covers more arrea) than with lead tape focused on an 1inch area.

    are these PDR fakes?

    I've cheked the rings,these are not from metal,seems like a hard plastic or something,they were used to make the handle longer.

    Huge news about Federer's racket!!!

    I didnt said no concentration at all,only that with a smaller racquet you have to be more focused on the ball than a bigger one.

    Huge news about Federer's racket!!!

    Concentration: If you loose your concentration,a bigger head racquet helps you in fact that you dont need to be so focused on the ball(u need but not so much as a smaller racquet). In Federer case,the last matches I saw him,he was shanking a lot,verry unconsistent;he doesnt have the...

    Huge news about Federer's racket!!!

    If so,Federer doesnt need a bigger racquet :) I never saw him playing so well,with very few unforced errors(and Cilic was playing one of his best games),from a long time.Thats why I was trying to see a bigger head racquet in his hands but it isnt the case.

    are these PDR fakes?

    These are Pure Drive Roddick Standard,the paintjob doesnt look like they are fakes but I saw under buttcap a metal(I think) ring,orange-red colour,the one in the first picture.Both racquets have it. The weight is 334g and 332g strunged,no overgrip and 32.5 ;32.3mm headlight but that metal ring...
