Cool man since you are sponsored by wilson the kps88 came custom for you or they just look exactly like the ones in the retail store, just wondering. Thanks

i will do this yes. I did a whole section comparing the prestige MP and KPS88. I'll get to the mid. These reviews take time to crank out. I've just been a little backed up with training and coaching that I have neglected my TT board. I apologize.

Ok sweet. Your doing a great job on the reviews, thanks a bunch:)

Kal-El,
Your frame weights 13.5=383 grams that's pretty heavy. One of the 2 that I got weights 374 grams without modification.

Microgel Prestige MP vs. Head I.Prestige MP

Kal,

I haven't had my chance to look through your entire thread but I was wondering if you have hit with the I.Prestige in the past. If so, would you be able to list some comparisons/differences between the I.Prestige and the Microgel Prestige Mid Plus. Anyone else out there that have hit these two racquets are more than welcome to share their experience. Thanks!

Wheres the Yonex love?! lol


It's called the "I never have to pay for my racquets since I have been sponsored by either wilson/prince or head my entire career therefore I will only be reviewing these racquets theory"

This is a good thread from Kal as long as you play these brands...not trying to sound unappreciative but I have grown weary of Wilson/Bab/Head stuffing racquets down these players throats..there are a whole slew of good racquets out there to play with...many that are even superior to over marketing hype you get from these brands..especially Wilson....rant over:twisted:

I was wondering, Kal-El, which microgel prestige do you think is better, the pro or midplus? I am asking this because I have APDC's with 16x19 patterns and a microgel prestige midplus with 18x20 pattern. I just don't feel that I am getting as much spin and good feelings with the midplus. Is the pro better?

Kal-El, do you know anything similar to KPro Open but better at the net? Have you played with nPro Open?

Kal... Where is your review on the k6.1 16x18... I am trying to decide between a K blade tour, k6.1 16x18 or k6.1 18x20... Anyone here have any thoughts on these three sticks ?

Kal-El,

In your review you mentioned that the pro red code plays very nice in the k88 with gauge/tension? Can you tell me a little bite more how the pro red plays in the k88? Anyway, Did you try any other poly string such signum, cyber blue, or polyfibre tcs/tcs rapid. I heard the tcs rapid plays /holds tension very well. Thanks

Hey Kal, just wondering if you were still doing reviews on racquets and was wondering if you could do the Speed MPs and how they compare to the MG Prestiges and K6.1 18x20. My Radical broke (which I liked alot) but I want something abit stiffer and abit heftier. Thanks

Too bad KalEl is not doing many reviews anymore, really enjoy reading these.

Hope you're doing well bro, wherever you are!

sup man great reviews!

which out of these 4 rackets do you think would be best for someone who hits hard from the back, seeking maximum control (can generate their own power and spin) and plays at a national junior level?

microgel prestige mp
microgel prestige pro
microgel radical mp
microgel radical pro

?

HAHA wow i found this still on here :) thought i would just give it a little bump. fun to go back and read some of these and how my thoughts and feelings on some of the frames have either weathered the test of time or have changed from further play
