My BLX Tour 90 Review

[Kick Serve 14]

I really was being only semi-serious. I was wondering if you were using a phone-type thing.

Hey, he's 13 and wants a BLX 90, and it appears he has convinced his parents to get him one. Isn't it only fitting that he also has an ITouch? I, on the other hand, have bought all 8 of my current rackets with money I have made from odd jobs, I could never dream of asking my parents to buy me a racket. They would just tell me no...

You know what? Get one, go ahead. Go out and get one now. Play with it for 2 weeks and see what happens. My bet is that you won't be able to lift your arm above your sholder without being in great pain. And I'm going to laugh at you, for wasting your money on a racket that you shouldn't have even tried using.

You can't adjust that much weight after not having played for a couple of years, not only are you going to get tennis elbow, but you're going to shank alot of balls. Have fun sucking at tennis, idiot!:twisted:

So far in this thread you have typed one, complete, grammatically correct sentence. Gold Star for you!
Anyways, back onto the topic that this thread was meant to discuss. I didn't get that much of a chance to really mix with the racket when I demoed it. How good is it at generating topspin from a semi-western grip?

 

[FEDERERNADAL13]

I thought the topspin was alright. like I said, alright topspin, great slice, fantastic flat. I don't know for a semi western though, it should be fine.

 

[samster]

Is Fed able to generate topspin with the BLX 90?

 

[Kick Serve 14]

Is Fed able to generate topspin with the BLX 90?

Yes, but he uses a different grip, an eastern I believe. Which, in my opinion is better for generating topspin with a smaller head size than a semi-western grip.

This review is a JOKE.

 

[FEDERERNADAL13]

Why would you think this review is a joke?

Notice the fact that barely any of the posts have been about the racket itself, but rather that idiot who thinks he's going to play like Federer if he get it.

 

[FEDERERNADAL13]

Well, maybe we should focus on it. As you know, I loved it. What does anyone else think of it?

 

[Jchurch]

I have played with the K90 quite a bit and now also bought the new BLX Tour 90. I feel that the BLX 90 is a little bit crisper and slightly less powerful. Overall it is quite similar to the K90, but feels just a little less in touch with the ball. Maybe that is because is it a smaller beam.

Look below because Kick Serve explains it PERFECTLY.

+1. His entire post was less on what he felt the racquet felt like but more of him asskissing himself.

My post was not based towards FEDERERNADAL13, he seems like at least somewhat of a level headed kid. But rather, adam13, who needs to understand that he should play with a game improvement racket, rather than one of the game's most demanding from the beginning. But thanks you for the complement either way...

Back to the original post. Wood-->steel-->aluminum(x 2)-->aluminum/fiberglass-->wood-->back to aluminum-->boron reinforced wood-->graphite-->graphite/boron-->graphite/fiberglass-->graphite-->graphite/ceramic x2-->graphite/extra long-->graphite(kinetic)-->graphite (odd shape)graphite-->graphite(kinetic)-->graphite-->back to graphite (kinetic).

As for the rackets: Slazenger Challenge #1-->Wilson t3000-->PDP Open, Head Pro-->Head Ashe Comp-->Dunlop Max Ply-->Yonex 8700(green one)-->Snauwaert Boronite II-->PK Black Ace-->Bard somethingFire-->PK Comp Dominator-->Yonex r22-->PK Ceramic Destiny, Fox WB 210, then back to the Ceramic Destiny-->Prince RipStick (29" long)-->PK 5g, PK 15gPSE-->Pro Supex MP3 Uniflex-->Fischer MSpeed 105-->Pk 10gPSE-->Head Extreme Team 105-->PK ki 5

Along the way, I had brief periods of play with a Bancroft wood, a Garcia Graphite reinforced wood, a Head ti Radical OS, the 2nd gen PK 15gPSE, a Fischer Pro 1, a PK Golden Ace, and probably a few more I can't remember now.
