Mojo,

any news regarding the PB10? Have you received your demos? This one looks like a sweet frame... Keep us updated.

Ed, didn't you read my big review about the 11MP VS 11SE :mrgreen:
Anyway, i found the 11mp to be a good racket in all ways, i could probably switch to it but i found it no upgrade on my beloved T10 but they are in the right direction, i'm looking out for the PB 10 (although i really like 16x19 patterns)

Perhaps the Powerbridge will give the racquet the juice that the denser stringbed takes away, and maybe the control will be better w. the denser stringbed?

They are coming tomorrow. The PB10 and PB8..i'm planning to hit the PB10 on Tuesday

I have a little more info about these Powerbridge racquets I can share.

The only two that are coming to the US <for now> are the PB8 and PB10 (Standard). People interested in the lighter PB10 can just try the Becker11Light, which i think is a very nice hit and lends itself very well to customization

The frames are to be available on 8.25.2008. My hitters are to be here on Monday and I will start a thread on each.

Thanks Mojo. I'm curious as to what your feedback will be on the PB8. As you know I've been with my trusty Tour 8s forever now and haven't found a worthy replacement but might give these PB8s a demo. I bet they will be pretty similar to the DNX8s and I didn't like the "feel" of them too much.

I think each tweak they make on these 8's will be better....the becker pro is better than the dnx8 and the Powerbridge8? will know soon...but they sure dont play that much like your T8's. The extra length is obviously a factor and something you've gotten used to. Volkl/Becker doesnt seem to be in the longer racquet biz other than the game improver frames. Hope all is well in Couchville.

Mojo skip the Pb8 give us the Pb10 info!!! Does it look as good as on the website?

Could you post pics? I'm interested in the inside part of the head on 3 or 9 o'clock...

Tomorrow I expect a full Pb10 review on my desk! No slacking off!

Yep, I've really gotten used to the extended length and the 8s in general. I don't even know why I try new racquets, I always go back to my 8s. Oh well, just need to make sure every now and then that the 8s are still the best for my game.

And all is well in Couchville, thanks. Really enjoying the summer with the kids.

I think you just like to hit with something different every once in a while..no harm in that. There really isnt much out there like your T8's. It's like being married and talking to some other babe..no harm in that If you start dating the other babe for no good reason....now that's another story................

Any Volkl Dealer has access to Volkl butt caps. Whether they want to bother with them or special order them for you is another story.
