are you actually going to be able to buy this racket?
I think it's pretty pointless talking about what rackets the pros use unless you can go out and buy it, or something similar at least.
even if you could buy the same racket as the pros, it might not be the right racket for you or it may not suit your style of play.

my mistake 
I would assume a Wilson Rep meeting, but you never know. I know the fed racket is a signature 90, but he may use a 95 regardless, it depends on how he likes it. My Wilson Rep said the release date will be Late January, and the boxed beam 90 and 95 are confirmed
Heres what the description of the photo with all the racquets says on @WilsonTennis Twitter (weird how they would delete a link to the pic if it can be seen so easily on Twitter) :
"Preparing for our Wilson Ad Staff meeting at @uspta_tennis ...Respect the past, build for the future"
Looks like it was a Wilson employee meeting of some sort. Hopefully someone was able to write down the specs to share soon

is there much difference between his racket and the one similar that you can actually buy?
if you can buy it that is.

To everyone asking for the link:
If you go to @WilsonTennis on twitter the last few tweets have been the links to the pictures.
The latest wilson tweet:

What makes you think Federer will switch to the 95? Why would Wilson continue to make the 90 if Federer was not going to use it?
why would they (TT Tennis) delete something Wilson THEMSELVES put out onto the web?:shock:

Do you think the Tour 90 model will disappear when Federer retires?
Hi Rusty, could you list them again? I do not see them but I am very curious about the specs of the tour 95 version!

Sorry if I missed this - but are these actual / confirmed specs, or just what you'd like to see come out? I saw your previous post and it wasn't clear from it.

Those specs are identical (minus head size) to the current Asian BLX90 - which I play with. So the above specs would be just right for me

U have specs for the other models? Will they make a Six One Team version again?
Rusty669
Semi-Pro
Yes, there will be a team version as always!just this time there will be 2 string patterns available, the current 18/20 and a 16/18!
That's all folks!
I was playing it tricky tricky
Sorry, can't say more

Not if another up and coming pro starts using it. Or a pro like Dimitrov can use something similar but with the paintjob of the Tour 90. Otherwise, it might just go away.

There will obviously be a 6.1 95 line, but those will have the same specs comme toujours.
Apart from that, I do not have any extra knowledge.

Ok, cool. So we're onto the 30th page of the thread called huge news about Federer's racquet and so far there has been no news about any new Federer racquet. Just news about the new paint job on his frame - which any muppet could have predicted was coming given he's been on the BLX paint-job for about 2 years now (or will have been come January).

absolutely right LOL but any news about the wilson rep meeting on the 22 of this month if there is a new line itll probably come out next season or 2013

Oh ok but no hardcore proof that fed is even switching?

i think you misunderstood or i should be more clear. the new blx frames coming out, is it confirmed that the 95" will be a box frame?
No not at all.
The guys from the shop just explained the new tour line they had seen at a Wilson meeting, that is all, but there will be several head sizes instead of 90 only is what they said a d had seen.
