Hello....

End of this month i wana change my racquet to a more precise control oriented one.

After some research i found 3 options and i want to listen opinions about these 3 racquets:

Wilson nCode nSixone 95sqin - 10pts HL - 346g - 16x18 - Stiff 63
Yonex RDX 500 midplus 98sqin - 8pts HL - 335g - 16x19 - Stiff 61
Volk Tour 10 V-Engine 98sqin - 7pts HL - 337g - 16x19 - Stiff 62

As I said, I'm a base line player and like to play depth balls with spin and a lot of control.

My msn is: verylowcar@yahoo.com.br

Tks

Tour10 and Nsix-One have too much power in my opinion, especailly if your current frame is pureControl Zylon. Yonex MP is nearly not as good as the mid. If you really want MP frame, try
Prince Diablo MP 100sq.in. 10pts HL - 332g - 16x18 - Stiff 62.
It offers ultimate control that a MP frame can give you. Spin is very good, and you can hit the ball as hard as you can without it going out. And these are dirt cheap compared to the other frames ("For sale" you can find 2 in 9/10 condition for $110)
If you don't mind smaller head try RDX500 mid - awesome spin frame with a lot of control.
As usuall, don't take my word for it, go out and test the frames yourself.
Hope this helps.
 
I played/tested the RDX500 90sqin(mid) this weekend. I played 2 times on saturday, one Sunday and today; and i liked the racquet.

But i tested the Wilson nCode also and i feel more control! I want to test the RDX500 98 too, seems the right racquet for me, but only testing I'll choose.

The prince is a good option too.

Tks guys!
 
Fischer Pro #1 is great all around, not just at the baseline, I play a lot of S&V and it is quite exceptional up at net too.
 
Racquet change

Ei, Paulo, sua atual raquete é leve, e todas as listadas por você são bem mais pesadas. Eu tive o mesmo dilema, escolhi raquetes de controle, pesadas, mas que depois de 1 ou 2 sets disputados, pareciam pesar uma tonelada... Assim, talvez fosse o caso de testar raquetes de controle mas não tão pesadas. Eu acabei decidindo pela Babolat Pure Drive personalizada com lead tape "at 9 and 3 o´clock", e tenho me dado bem. A corda que uso é Bab Hurricane nas verticais e Head Rip Control nas horizontais (56lb).
Espero ter ajudado!
Abraço, Carlos Bornancini
PS: provavelmente vou levar um pau desses americanos "puristas", que odeiam a Babolat PD...
 
Opa! blz?? Bom ver mais brasileiros por aqui!! hehe

Se eles entenderem o que tu disse realmente podem ficar brabos!! hehe

Mas posso dizer que joguei mais de 18 sets! Não games, sets mesmo com essas raquetes pesadas e me senti muito bem, por isso minha escolha recaiu sobre elas. Tenho um amigo que tem uma drive e peguei a dele pra bater, gostei bastante tb, mas ainda assim solta demais a bola!!! Por enquanto to mais para a Wilson nCode.

Se tu souber de alguém que queira comprar minha Pure Control Zylon me pode dar meu e-mail que ta no primeiro post.

Abraço,
Paulo
