New IG Radicals?

[baseline_monster]

Just looked through some pictures of queens and saw that Brit player Heather Watson is playing with a almost blacked out Radical. Can't get the pics as I am ony phone but defo looks like a new cosmetic? We are due new ones, the current ones have been out for 2 years.

I think Heather's switched to Dunlop, the Biomimetic 300 to be precise. I saw a picture of her with one and also she had a Dunlop bag at RG.

I seen a closer pick and it clearly said head on the top of the bumper....

Skip to the pictures of Heather. The picture when she is sitting down.
Dunlop Biomimetic bag.
I agree, it says head, but the frame's blacked out and she's probably still under Head's racket contract or something for some more time.
Non of the other Radical users have blacked out frames, and I'm not sure why someone just ranked inside the Top 100 would be the only exception.
Switch to Dunlop for sure, in my opinion.

I agree. I think that it may be a Dunlop contract and she will just use a pj, dunolp do do that a lot

You talking about this, right?

Usually a blacked-out frame may suggest a change of racket/brand. We'll see, and the IG Rads/Prestiges should be around either this summer or spring 2012.

It's a MG Radical MP with YT Radical MP Cosmetics that have been blacked-out. I believe she is trying to have a deal with Dunlop as she is carrying a Dunlop bag and has a Dunlop Biomimetic dampener in the strings.

why do people just paint over the previous cosmetic when they paint a frame? Would it not make more sense to strip it down and then black it out..? That would less affect the weight, and you wouldnt have this crap orange coming through.

She's 'trying' as in she wants to get noticed by Dunlop or they're in negotiations/transition period?

Looks like a Transition period. We will see if she can switch to a Dunlop frame.

On the subject of new Radicals, whats going on? I dont think they have kept a radical line for more than 2 years since the Intelligence line?

Dunlop will be releasing Biomimetic 600 Tour. It could be it

I know for sure from Head rep that the Radical and Prestige are due to be released with the Innegra version next year - look for Pro's to use it at the Australian and on sale straight after. Don't know what they'll look like but I guess they'll be some updating like the Speed and Extreme.
