Fischer Pro #1- TW Demo Status / Discontinued?

[FeloniousMonk]

I am currently demoing two Fischers, and waiting on the arrival of two more. One of the two, the Fischer Pro #1 has been listed as backorder for two weeks or so, and I decided to give TW a call to find out the scoop on the situation. The TW rep said they have no idea when they will get one in for avail for demo, and that the low number of racquets currently in stock might mean that the model is soon to be discontinued.

Makes sense, except for the fact that the Pro # 1 has long been the flagship model for Fischer, and seems wildly popular among the admitedly small U.S. market share that Fischer holds. Anybody have any info on this? Is Fischer dropping this one, but keeping the Pro #1 FT (frequency tuned) version around?

hmm i just purchased one of those from TW last week, they had couple in stock. This probably would get answered quicker in Ask TW forum btw.

Magnetic Speed Pro No. 1

The current version will probably be replaced by the M Pro No. 1 (Magnetic Speed) coming out most likely in September. The new model is on Fischer's Euro website.
