New Tomic Racket?

Saw a picture this weekend on the Tecnifibre instagram page showing Tomic (not sure if its Bernard or Sara; But it's at Monte Carlo) with what looks to be HEAD rackets with different colour head guards.

Just to note, Bernie is using the HEAD Radical LTD paintjob in his match with Schwartzman so not sure what these frames could be.

I noticed a couple of things, super wide string pattern, green strings, also a frame behind it with RED Gromments, they aren't full CAP grommets though if you look closely they have a cut in them.

Also looks like Kyle* Edmund is stringing poly* mains higher than his gut* cross at 55/53.

Exactly, he threw the first set against Schwartzman so the second set had to go the same way, I guess we'll find out at Rome possibly.

His crosses are sensation, and yes 55/53 is correct

As for Tomic, he normally uses gut mains with 10% pre-stretch and signum poly crosses; with the crosses 0.5lb tighter than the mains. I'd suspect that it could be for hitting partner; although I have no idea on the rqts themselves.

Those are some seriously specific specs.... how do you even experiment enough to get to those numbers?? Or even notice a difference!?
