Flexible Racquet Recommendation

Can anyone recommend a racquet that is flexible from the hoop, thorugh the throat, and to the neck; like my old Dunlop Black Max? Do Volkls have such characteristics? And what kind of handle shape do Volkl's have; like Head? Dunlop? Wilson? Prince? What handle shape do ProKennex have? Anybody try the Type C?

Depends on which Volkl racquets your talking about? The T10, and C10 play very flexible compared to most the stuff out there. As far as the grip shape they're rectangular like Head.

Wolfpack you can go to the TW racquet finder and enter the stifness parameters and other info you find pertinent and it should spew forth some good options for you. The Volkl C10 Pro is a very flexy in the hoop frame. I've never hit the Black Max so really cant comment on what racquet might have a similar feel
 
black max to me is a pretty unstable racket. I tried to put lead on both side to imitateas the wilson 'pws'. But it does not work as well as on the older wilsons that do not have the 'pws'. If it is the fibreglass content (soft soft feel) in the black max you cherish, try wilson 80/20mid. I have one and it is my regular. And it is dirt cheap like the black max.

Diablo Mid is not flexy!... must be the MP, but I've never tried it.

I know my LM Prestige Mid is very felxy, all the way up... maybe slightly stiffer in the upper hoop then the rest.

The Volkl Catapult 10 was very flexy...getting harder to find but you may have some luck on ****. The PK Type C is pretty flexy as is the Yonex RD ti 80.

The PK type R has even more flex than the type C (58 vs. 60). I am finding out that it responds well to added weight as suggested by Kevin T.
