lead

Sometimes when I test or use racquets in stock form I find that some do not suit my swing by being too whippy or fast through the air. Which got me thinking, what would be the most efficient way to add weight to slow it down a little bit? My brain has always thought: swingweight up = slower...

I’m playing with my I.Prestige MP. I've been using this racket since I was 12 years old. I've also used the LM Prestige, Flexpoint Prestige, and the Youtek Prestige. My favorite Prestige is the Prestige Classic 600, but I'm not using it at the moment because of the forgiveness. Among the MP...

Hi a few days ago I tried some lead tape that I got left approx 4-5 grams at 3-9 in my racquet, I did this because of the article of ttuniversity talking that the lead tape in this location reduces topspin lower part of the racquet face. What I can say is that I was true the launch angle was...

Hi guys! Just wondering and i can't find anywhere, what's the difference between a racket and the same model but in it's "light" version, lets say for example vcore 97 310 and 290, or many other rackets with a 300ish version and a 280/290 one. Are they they same racket made with the same...

Hey friends! Impulse bought a 93p (18x20) after a nice little demo sesh last month and still trying to get things fully dialed in with it. It's a great racquet as-is, don't get me wrong, but I'm really trying to make it sing. For context, I'm coming from a K90 and I absolutely love the weight...

While there are multiple ways to add mass in the handle in order to make a racquet heavier and more lead light, in your opinion which method leads to the best resulting feel?

For Gravity Pro users out there, I am curious as to how you use lead if you do use it to customise your frame and how the response is. Please let me know.

I switched to a new kind of strings, at a tension I have not tried before, and replaced the thick leather grip with a thinner one. Static weight 349 grams was smaller than before. I like the pop of the strings, but the racquet recoiled too much on impact. A larger weight is needed. I added a...

Long post, summary: ● I find different good aspects in various weight distributions. ● The setup I like is good in most aspects, except that the racquet is too heavy, and swings are slow. I would like to ask ● what causes the feelings as described below when I tune weight distributions, and ●...

Hi, maybe this a a silly question but I have to ask... "Head Brand" of Head Protection Tape is kind of heavy for a tape. If I cover my racket from around 9 to 3 without stretching the tape it will add 4-5 grams of weight. Will those 4-5 grams of tape be the equivalent of adding 4-5 gram of...

I currently have a stock PS90 Blx so that should be about 357g. It's really easy to swing for me (idk why people say it's heavy), so should I increase weight just because I can? Is it better to weigh up the racket as much as you comfortably can, or is there a better strategy to choosing racket...

Hi people, I've a Blade 18x20 with balance at 33,7 cm and I wanna change it to 32,5 cm to increase a little the maneubravility and make a more "arm friendly" balance...how much weight I need to add? Or how much grams are needed to change the balance one point or cm?

I've been playing with my Yonex AI98s for about two years now. I really like my racquets and am in no position to switch to anything newer/different at the moment. That said, after I first bought them, I customized them. I haven't revisited the topic since then however now I am trying to fix...

Sorry if this is not allowed post. I am looking to trim some reels of lead tape to make them 1/4" and 3/8' wide. 36 yard reels. Any ideas where I could get this done by a machine. I needs to be near perfect.
