Ripper
Hall of Fame
According to many people who post here. Everytime someone here asks if pro "A" is really using raquet "B", you can bet your raquet collection that someone here is going to reply that it's a specially molded extended version. How the hell do they know this, I don't know. Some state that the handle looks longer in the pictures. I've checked for myself (for example, Coria's, Davydenko's, Nalbandian's, etc.) and eventhough, at times, I might get the same impression, it must be just a visual misconception, due to the way they wrap their overgrips. If extended length raquets are so great, they would account for a higher percentage of what non pros are using. I mean it's not that they're difficult to use or anything like that.
