Well, my current bag (good for K*) is just about all red too. At least I don't have to worry about losing it. Dark black KPS accents would be nice.

Been sick all week =( flu is going around the house and I caught it.


However I did find the 6.1 95 18x20 in the box today, I thought it wasn't there.
OK, I see. Hope you get well soon.

But how about your friend that uses the K90 (and also has the older Tour 90's) that you said you would lend the BLX 6.1 Tour 90 to hit with and get feedback from? Is he sick, too?

BTW, I'm only interested in the BLX 6.1 Tour 90, so I'm not interested in the 6.1 95 18x20.

Thanks! :)

If it's H1N1, it could be a while. I didn't feel like playing tennis for several weeks after getting it.

Nah he's fine..he's been busy as well since he's teaching and stuff. I'll see if I can give it to him tonight.

BLX?! Superfail by wilsons marketing team.


"My BLX HAS GOT 6 inches of lead!"

Watching Federer walk out on court with his big BLX bag is gonna be epic.
NEWSFLASH: Nobody outside of the U.K. knows nor cares what BLX means, and Wilson obviously doesn't give a d*mn what people in the U.K. think of the name.

I, for one, think it's hilarious.....and I'm from Ohio.

Since several major tennis events take place in the UK, I think Wilson, being an international company, should have been aware.

If they say released a new racket with "BALL-BUSTER" technology, or an overgrip called "STICKY-PALM" then perhaps that would work, right?

That racket sure sounds powerful......and the overgrip sounds nice and tacky.

.....or would you prefer they come out with something marketed as Carbon Linearized Inversion Technology?

i think it's genius because everybody is talking about the new name.

you don't hear people talking about the new gt from babolat for example.

This model could only be used by people with advanced technique that have excellent stroke production ;)

Like I said before, it's all Mats Wilander's fault. He accused Federer of not having any balls. So Wilson obliged.

Voila! Now, when he goes out on the court, Federer will have "balls"! :)

Exactly. It's subliminal sexual advertising at its finest, though it should have been associated with a female body part.

Good one. It's definitely got a small sweet spot, but if you're good it will reward you.
 
I gave up on this thread a week ago, and here you are still banging on...

Do you even leave your house?

Open a window or something man....

Nothing against you dude but atleast he's paying attention, other people are starting new threads with the same content. lol. I've seen 4 different threads pop up and all have the same link back to my blog.


One didn't and someone asked for specs on the racquets which I've provided for each stick i've previewed.

Reading is fundamental!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol

But the point is. This thread got old a week ago.. To even be arguing about stuff related to this subject is kinda strange in my opinion.

I thank you for the heads up. But until someone plays with, demo's, and writes a decent report. Then arguing over what "might be" is just silly....

BP is either really lonely. Or wants to make his post count even higher. You decide?

As soon as I'm feeling better I'm hitting with the Pro Tour lol, my friend has the BLX 6.1 tour 90 in his posession as we speak.

I gotta feeling the BLX Tour 95 is gonna be the same as the K Tour.

I've just heard that each BLX racquet purchased will come with a free T-shirt courtesy of Wilson.

wilson could use ac/dc's "big balls" song to advertise the new line of racquets :)

"...I've got big balls
I've got big balls
And they're such big balls
Dirty big balls
And he's got big balls
And she's got big balls
But we've got the biggest balls of them all..."

The more I see it the more I come to realize that the design actually has some good design elements - the problem is that it also has a few that just ruin those successful design elements. The color split in the throat is probably the worst element - it really just cuts into the more smooth, rounded lines of the frame.
Too bad. I think there was some potential for a nice and unique clean design, just some bad execution. It's almost like the designer had a good design and the marketing / sales people came in and gave their input - maybe the colour split in the throat was to signify some marketing / sales goal. Who knows...
