Battle of the 18x20 MP's

[-Bobo-]

What's your choice and why?

In retrospect i probably should have put in a dunlop 300 tour and some radical but i had a brain cramp by the looks of things so if it's either of those just state it in your post and a blade from wilson, but they're too light for what I need.

Bumpety bump

No Blades?? C'mon now. (voted rebel)

Agreed. Another vote for the Wilson K Blade Tour.

I'll be domoing the Donnay 94 Black & 94 Blue next week. I'll let everyone how I like them.

I would've put the tour but its only MP's in this one and as for the 98 like i said too light.

 

[canadad]

What about the Speeds?

 

[brownbearfalling]

I currently play with the Blx 95. To me it has the most pop out of all the racquets listed.

I would also put in another vote for the kblade 98. It's a great racquet.

What about the Speeds?

They don't seem to be too popular, would you have voted for them?

 

[mark1]

Love the pslgt/psl and am now playing with the kblade tour 93 which IMO is slightly better.

Highly recommend all of the above if you cam supply the swing speed

 

[Kevo]

Yep, really like the KBT 93, but I gave the PSL a slight edge over it. Both very good frames and at the top of my short list of favorites.

To be honest, who cares about popular? If it makes you play better-- fantastic.

LM Radical for me. The YT is nice but not my 1st pick.

Aerogel 200g
BLX 95 but 16x19 pattern

Yet another thumbs up for the PSL. I always think its its cool how certain sticks,...rise like cream,..amongst hundreds of sticks produced in the past several years,..
(..and actually??..I really like all my sticks in my sig,..'cept for the T3000 (dated),..and the RDS001 (the only 16x19):-|

Great thread by the way!!!!

 

[Timbo's hopeless slice]

yeah, maybe teh 300 tour if it had been there. I had the speeds, but they hurt my arm...

Well this thread is to gauge popularity amongst 18x20's so i kind of care. The reason I care is to narrow down the demo field, generally the frames held in the highest regard play better, and since the specs are similar (except for sw) on these sticks it makes sense that the same kind of people would have interest in them and thus the most popular ones would be a good place to start. Granted this doesn't account for the propensity for people to use the top 4 or the fact that not many would have tried all but still gives an indication of where i should start.

Fair enough-- be careful with what some people say though. It's not uncommon for people to pump a frame or string etc... just because it's the current hype. Take a look at the variety of players that buy frames way too demanding for their play based on what pros are using them (only to turn around and sell the frames a month later)

LM Radical MP Tour

 

[dnation]

Agree.
1 thumbs up for 18x20 Dunlop 300 tour - although it isnt up there.

Kblade and Radical should both be up there as well.. I think they would sky rocket to near the top.

 

[jyas]

I played with the yt prestige mps last year so I voted for them but my current sticks, exo3 tours, are nowhere to be found on the list. I guess it's a bit lighter than the ones on your list.

 

[Head057]

Radical mp for me

 

[-Bobo-]

Wow wasn't expecting the psltd to do so well

 

[alidisperanza]

LM Radical MP Tour

Wait, wait, wait, They made a TOUR!?

 

[cnr1guy]

Wait, wait, wait, They made a TOUR!?

Very - very rare, indeed! 16x19 , 100 sq inch LM Rads are almost impossible to find!

 

[-Bobo-]

So i hit with all the sticks that got 3 or more votes, except i hit with the k factor 6.1 and The dunlops were great as were the babolats, i voted for the ltd but really any of those 4 were great sticks thought the pure storm tour was quite different, still awesome though.
