When to buy?

[rabidturtle]

So I've been playing with Ncode Surges for about four years, but smashed 2 of 3 I owned (darn pushers, just raise my blood pressure )

I'm in need of new rackets, but hesitant to buy in fear of a new line of rackets coming out. Should I wait to get new ones or bite the bullet?

btw some information that may be relevant, looking to stay with wilson or change to babolat. Rackets that I'm considering:

Wilson 6.1 95 16x18 or 18x20
Babolat Pure Storm Tour
Head Microgel Prestige Pro
Wislon Kblade 98

i'm pretty sure that wilson isn't coming out with anything totally new for this year at least.

there was word about new prince sticks though.

but that's why we have the FS/FT section here!

Does anybody know how often Wilson comes out with a new line?

It'll be at least 1-2 years till a new Wilson line comes out. This one is just too successful at the moment. Bite the bullet rabidturtle I say. Plus you're never guaranteed that the newest model=the best model. I play nSix One's because I disliked the kFactors a lot!

Yep, no counting on a new line of gear to be anything special. When you find a frame that fits your game and you can really go to work with it, grab it! The only thing you can count on new models of racquets to deliver is a hefty price tag.

I heard DUNLOP is coming out with a new line in Nov.
