Hmm. These aren't far from YouTek Radicals prostock that Thomas Berdych. Have them new for sale – prefer 260.2 and 260.5 for feel and 16x19.
Does he really play so light frame? Unbelievable.

Anyway – content of my today's tennis bag.
Dunlop PT924 – feel-wise the best one for sure, however 231.1, 260.2 and Pro Tour 2.0 are also so good frames. IG Radical Pro and 260.2 I really love for feel, comfort and dense 16x19.
If PT2.0 would be lighter I could easily switch to it. Still think Wilson has the best paint jobs in recent years. Pure, minimal and stylish.

To me this protype paint looks more gorgeous than what is to be the actual paint I saw in leaked catalog. Now I need one! How did it play?it was in my hands for about 30 minutes. must do an extended demo!

I only used it in a couple ball feed drills and live ball drills on a demo night. pretty crowded so didn't get into a groove. I believe it is 10.6 but it felt like it hit through the ball pretty well. If I were to pick one up...I'll do my usual leather grip and then lead as needed to get weight in the hoop. I did appreciate the 8 mains in the throat.
Haven't seen any leaked pics of the radical. Part of me hopes I don't like the colors...lol

Really like 25th anniversary edition – a tiny bit stiffer response – but more powerfull.

I haven't tried yet but as far as I know the stiffer response comes from the black grommets (rather then the clear ones of the red frame). But beautiful frame indeed.

Two of three of my latest (and most expensive!) purchases. Blade Pro 18x20, TC95 v3 (290g, 4pt headlight), and an NOS Prostaff 95S (not pictured).
My local club badly needs a resurfacing and light replacement

Don't see many Pro Staff 95's - glad to see them! I love hitting them but no power lol.My new baby
What kind of weighing do you have on there? Any suggestions? (Feel free to PM as to not litter thread if that's not allowed in this thread...wasn't sure)

Every racket looks better with a leather grip!My WEAPON of choice. I have copied FFA's specs
And must admit, they hit solid.

Yep pretty rare. Makes finding one even harder haha. Just recently switched to them actually. You’re quite right in saying that it’s lacks power. But I love the control and feel I get from these. Can feel like I can put the ball on a dime. Spin also helps. Power lacks, but you can always add power to a frame.
I’m the pic I’ve added lead form 9 to 3, which according to my calculations has bumped up the static weight to 351g and swingweight to 365. But I’ve noticed I’ve stated lacking some racquet head speed and so am still tinkering. Ive taken some off and now the swingweight is at about 345 and I’ll see how it goes.
Plus it’s one sexy ass frame

Wilson QC is as expected. The RA is pretty consistent but the balance can vary depending on if the bag is crumpled

There are a few similarities, tho.
Both the Clash and the NXG's have a graphite handle with no pallet, and they do feel a bit similar because of it.
The Clash and APD actually play similarly(but feel very different). The Clash takes me a few games to get used to the launch angle, tho. APD and NXG are similar.
The AeroStorm isn't hugely different from the Radical except for more spin. I will admit the Radical is also more comfy and solid in use. It's the Wife's stick.
The 97s and AI98 is sort of it's own thing in that batch, tho. The wife occasionally uses them, too, as these and the Radical are close enough for her game.
Oddly, the APD is second place for spin in this group. The NXG's produce more of it when both sticks are strung with TB or HyperG.
Could be because they are lower powered and I can swing out more, or may be the fact they weigh nearly 20 grams strung more than the APD, or maybe due to being 27.25 inches. Shrug.

Yep. From what I can tell, it’s basically a PS 85 with a tighter 16x19 (8 center mains) and a color-shifted paint job. 356g strung / ~10 points head light with overgrip and rubber band dampener. Hits pretty nicely, but I can barely find anything about it online. Still strung with full gut and it has its original leather grip.
