Wow, there are a lot of these kind of threads, haha. Oh well, its always fun.

I'm 15 and I use a Wilson [K]Surge, but recently changed to Yonex RDS 001 Mid plus. Strings are Hybrid of Wilson natural gut on mains, Luxilon ALU of cross
 
16 - switching between Yonex RDS 001 Mid and RQis Tour 1 - Pro Supex Blue Gear mains and Prince Syn. Gut w/ Duraflex crosses.

I'll be 28 in a month or so...
I currently use the Volkl Tour 10 MP's ...Gen 1 (have 3 of them in rotation).
I own a few other rackets ... usually 3 of each if I played them half seriously (i.e if they were my "main" racket at one point).
I would buy some more tour 10's if I could find them new ;).
 
I'm 36 and use 2 Wilson nBlade M+. I also have a FXP Radical with an extra 50g of weight added to it but it hasn't been used in a league match yet.
 
First, hello to everybody on this forum!

I'm 27 years old and I use 2 Tecnifibre TFight320's 18x20 with Pro RedCode strings and 2 Prince TT Warriors MP.
 
31, 2 Prestige team 3 head ti.Elite\Laser very leaded up with diferent setups ranging from poly to hybrids and always changing... and a LE Radical OS just for those "teaching your girl days"

Update: since original post, i have been pilling up diferent Radical OS frames..

31, 2 RDS001mp (used to be four!) as stock with leather grip, main: poly (usually competition) @ 57lb; Crosses: Synth gut (usually psgd) @ 57.
 
age:19

current weapons of choice are 3 wilson n90s- strung with full pro red code other two with alu power blue mains and wilson nxt crosses

gee there are several posts on this topic or similar
 
25 and I haven't found my holy grail yet.

Here's my current racquet inventory:

4 Yonex RDX500 MP (2 for sale)
3 Yonex RDS 001 MP (1 for sale)
1 Yonex RQ7 (For sale)
1 Babolat Aero Storm Tour
1 Babolat Aero Pro Drive Standard (demoing now and probably will result in a purchase)

Past racquets:

2 Babolat Aero Strike Cortex
1 Babolat Aero Pro Drive + Cortex

I don't have a string setup that I always use as I like to switch and try new things, but here's everything I've tried so far.

Babolat Pro Hurricane Tour 17
Babolat Pro hurricane Tour 16
Babolat Xcel Premium
Babolat Attraction
Babolat Speed something...
Babolat Razor something...
Babolat Ballistic
Luxilon Big Banger ACE
Luxilon Big Banger
Luxilon ALU
Head Ultra Tour 17
Toalson Ichiban
Yonex Tour Super 850

If my body could afford it, I'd string only with Pro Hurricane Tour 17. Since my wrist hurts, I've found that Pro Hurricane Tour 16 and Xcel Premium is the best so far, followed closely by the cheaper Head Ultra Tour 17 and Yonex Tour Super 850 setup. However, both should lose tension and feel by the third week. I know I will never use Toalson Ichiban or Babolat Ballistic again since I did not like any aspect of them. I would try Luxilon again if the prices drop even though I didn't find anything spectacular about them.

I plan to start a racquet collection as it has quickly become a hobby. We'll see how that turns out.

I also keep and label small pieces of every string I've ever tried.
 
40 and rotating through the last 5 Babolat Pure Control + "swirl" rackets remaining on the planet.

I make the above statement only because I have been prowling these pages, as well as that "other" auction site for over a year and can't seem to find any more...
 
29 and a PS85 user.

i'm currently experimenting with different strings, but string at 55lbs tension now compared to 65lbs i used to string at for over a decade. got some nice pop with the lowered tension.:)
 
I'm 33, use 5 Donnay Pro One Int'l mids with Wilson NXT 17 gauge 55 lbs.:twisted:
 
Mid 40's (all court player)

I try to keep all my racquets to have similar specs

Pro Supex - Premier Ace / SPiral Flex

Plays mostly Midsized -
-almost all avg strung weight 12.2 to 12.5
-5 pt to 12 pt head light
-head beam 18 to 21mm

Some 98's
- same specs as above
