I recently bought some Dunlop AeroGel 200's stright off like a 30-60 min demo. I liked it so much i bought two at once. I tried to play with it in stock form, but it was wayyyy too light, so I began to test on it.
Changes:
1. Took off the original grip and replaced with a Babolat Leather Grip.
2. Took four 6-inch [1/4 inch width] strips and put two on each side on 3 & 9. I'm not sure how many grams it is but if someone does know can you plz tell me, thinking its one and a half grams for each 6-inch strip [correct me if I'm wrong]??
3. Added the same 6-inch [1/4 width] strips but this time I put seven strips under my leather grip. Making it more headlight.
4. Put a Babolat Head Tape on the top of the head to keep my baby safe .
It took alot of experimentation with different amounts of lead but I found this set-up to give me the perfect swightweight, the perfect pop [even though I don't really like the strings], good maneuverability due to its headlightness, it increased my serves by tenfold, I'm hitting winners from all over the court, and I haven't really been able to get net points off rallies, but when just hitting back and forth, my volleys were crisp, deep and putaways were always an easy option. I don't know what else to say except I'm in love with this racquet and I don' think I'll be switching anytime soon. Hopefully when I put in my CyberFlash, it'll be even better!
Just wanted to share this with yall, since I normally switch racquets alot, but I don't think I'll be switching anytime soon. Any comments, thought and questions will be appreciated and answered. Thx!
