My babolat package came with 4 pure storm tour gt's, a reel of pro hurricane tour, 6 packs of VS gut, 4 custom damps, a 12 pack bag, a white hat, 3 shirts, 2 shorts, 12 grips, 4 pairs of socks, and 2 pairs of reverse shoes for 350 dollars. Top 100 nats, and top 10 south.

P.S.- Just a few weeks after signing with babolat, they sent my money back and said I was eligible for a full package (same really). and after a nat tourny kswiss signed with me for apparel (the babolat shoes/apparel have gone to waste.)

When I was in the jrs at my peak rank (top 50) like 2 years ago head signed with me for 5 frames, 9 pack, hats, didn't want the string or shoes or wristbands. Could also buy frames and bags for CHEAAAP. Now I just get a big discount on frames which is pretty much given to all D1 college players.

The discount is around 110 a frame right?

Mantennis, who is your contact at Babolat? Do you have an email? My daughter has been sponsored by Head but wants to change to Babolat. We have not recieved any info from Babolat unlike the other companies who have contacted us.

The deals and prices were shown in the ultimate sponsorship thread which is now formerly Dead.

YES
all of those ranking requirements were WRONG
people are still referring to that thread when they think that theyre guessing the correct ranking requirement for a full/partial/etc....

If all those requirements were wrong, you must know what's right. How about sharing some info? Let's start with the requirements for full with Head and Prince.

Ouch, I didn't realize that my Wilson Rep lied to me about the rankings, and the sponsorships, but I guess you know better than him :rolleyes: ...
 
the thread dates back 3 years... the requirements most likely would have changed

I mentioned my stuff a month ago, so that's not too far. The thread was alive for 3 years, so just because it starts there, doesn't mean it finishes there. Go to the last page, you'll see how recent it is.

May seem like a stupid question, but is there any possible way to get deals or discounts without having a ranking (or one that's signifigant enought to matter)?

Good question. There are ways. I always try to help get my students deals with strings or preferred player packages. You have to know the right people.

They are fairly easy to get compared to others as long as you show you work hard for dunlop at least idk bout mantis been wondering a while is mantis easy and what are the requirements?

i told them i play varsity and quickstart coach, i got 40% off.

What is the best way to go about showing them you are workking hard. I don't even think I have a rating, which really sucks because I never really played tennis till a year and a half ago. I made my highschool team and am really trying to push my tennis to the next level, I train everyday after school if I can whether it be on or off the court.

Any help is appreciated

Well if it is dunlop as long as you play competitively they give it to you. With Mantis tell them that you play for your high school and whatnot.

For mantis, do you need racquets, or can you only get string sponsorship?

With Mantis everyone get's 40% no package required. There's not even a package. They currently are n't selling a stencell. You buy hat you want hen you want it. They currenly only selling 2 raquets in the us and 4 in UK. There should be 8 raquets out at end of the year.

Dunlop Player Package

@Larrysummers

I just applied for the D-Squad and I really hope I get the package. How easy is it to be accepted?

D-Squad

1) $300 for 2 rackets, 2 shirts, a reel, 1 stencil kit, 2 dunlop hats, and 1 6 racket bag

Thats the cheapest one for my sponsorship. But I decided not to accept it I'll just use my customized Prince Rebel 95, Solinco Tour Bite Sponsorship, Dunlop bag, and Babolat Aero Pro GT backup, Microgel Prestige backup, and a Vintage Head Wooden Racket warmup. lolz

I guess you just apply with your email then they email you and you give your playing background and stuff. They haven't responded to me yet though:confused:

Don't get discouraged. It takes a few months. Here the packages.

If I do get the deal, I'll be changing from my Babolat APD Cortex. Does anybody know of a similar racket from Dunlop?
