Is it true..

[fallen.]

that safin and other top players using the prestige will switch to the flexpoint?
i read somewhere that they were (it might've been here) but i was just wondering..
is safin's racquet a paintjob anyway? or is he really using the liquidmetal prestige.. i have no clue as to who uses paintjobs or any of the sort so yeah...

He's using the Prestige Classic 600. I'm not sure when Head will change the paintjob to Flexpoint.

it's already been done...there's a thread floating around....he's got the FP prestige paintjob now

Ok, thanks Snoflewis. I haven't gotten to see Marat play lately.

There is nothing to wonder! The Flexpoint is REALLY POWERFULL racquet!

Safin uses a Prestige Classic mid 600 painted to a prestige fp. He uses bb alu power and i think it's gut. He ads lead tape at 12, 9 and 3 o'clock. Probably he has some more weight in his handle or somewere else.

who 12 9 and 3 oclock? damn thats strange, usually you do one or the other, like sampras had 3 and 9, while federer has it at 12. so cud that photo of the pj-d presitge liquidmetal from teh star stringing booth be his? i still dont think so, it had lead all around the top part of the the hoop, so like 3 through 9 o'clock kinda.
