Head Radical Trisys?

[cukoo]

Can someone give me a short comparison of the Head Radical Trisys MP (98sq in) vs the OS version (107sq in)?
Also, does anyone know the specs of them?
Thanks

You can look at the descriptions and reviews of the current Radicals to get an idea of the differences between the MS and the OS, which are basically the same differences as with the earlier models.

Basic Specs:

Cross Section
Midplus: 20mm
Oversize: 21mm

Weight: Unstrung
Midplus: 11.4 oz.

Oversize: 315 mm

String Pattern

Edit: It is a high modulus Graphite and high modulus Twaron Composite Frame.

Hope this helps.

RIP consumer Twaron racquets.

Oversize: 107sq.in.

I've seen before where you've said that in various threads, and I see that you're quoting it from a Head catalog, but I'm confused...

The original Head Agassi Radical Tour Trisys 260 OS (~1993/1994?) was always quoted by Head, at the time, as being 110 sq. in., and is still listed in TW's RacquetFinder database (from where I pulled the specs I quoted above) as being 110.

The XL version was 107 and the follow-on twin tube oversize was 107.

Did Head since change their methodology for measuring head size such that the 110 changed to 107 for the same racquet (I understand there are some issues re inside vs. outside of frame, etc.?), or is there a mistake by Head in the catalog you're looking at?

That was my stick for 10 years, so I'm pretty familiar with it.

I still have two, maybe I should measure them.

All of the HEAD catalogs I have for the different years of the Radical Trisys 260 Oversize, Radical Tour TwinTube 690, and Radical Tour TwinTube 690 XL ALL state that the head size for the oversize model is 107 square inches.

I can't help that RacquetFinder comes up with different head sizes measurements from racquets that were all made using the same mold.

Just wondering, which racquet did Agassi supposubly (pj) / or did he really play with?
Also, can anyone tell me how they are different?

An OS, either a Trisys 260 or a Radical Tour.
