Don't be afraid to be radical with your imagination.

I'm thinking that my perfect racket would be something like

100 in
10 pts hl
310 swing weight
11.5 oz
20000 lbs twistweight
21 mm straight beam.
69 stiffness

and is made by babolat because their rackets are best looking

My perfect racquet:

98-100 sq. in. head size
8 pts HL
407 swingweight
13.3 oz
64 RA stiffness
21.5 mm straight beam.

Oh wait, this racquet exists....

It's my current setup!

how do you know it has a 407 swingweight? how did you measure it?
Because if you used the tw sw calculator, there is a Huge margin for human error.

A combo of APD and K90

90sq in
12.5oz
7pt hl
SW 330
67 Stiffness
17-20mm beam (Aero Shaped)
High Modulus Karbophite :D
Leather
16X19

That would be mega cool.

Imagine the GS Wins from it.

So Basically a APD, with the specs of a K90.

5mm round beam (for aerodynamics) with the feel of a braided flat beam. Can't beat the OP's 1000 twistweight, but with a beam this small all the weight could be concentrated at 3&9 and should approach stats such as these:

100 inch
340 grams
32cm
340 SW (higher than I can handle, but the aerodynamics should let me pull it off)
60 flex, but rock solid in the hoop
16 twistweight

The margin isn't huge, you just have to take ten time readings at 20 seconds instead of 10, throw out the lowest and highest onces, add up the remaining 8 and divide by 16. Plugging that number in should get you within 1 unit. As good as a Babolat RDC. (Or better, TW used this method to calibrate their machine)
