For Microgels the Radical Pro, and the Extreme Pro.

My top 4 wanted are (in no paticular order):
1. LiquidMetal Prestige
2. Liquidmetal Radical
3. FXP Prestige
4. Microgel Radical

What do yall think and suggest??

I love the LM Instinct. The best racquet I've used!!! And still using it.

I like...

I like my new Flexpoint Prestige MP's. I had them strung with Kirschbaum Touch Multifiliment Mains @ 58 and Technifiber Pro Blend (Pro Mix) Crosses @ 60. Next lap I'll go a bit less tension all around, but this combo works well for me...

im not a fan of 18x20s...but from my past experience, all radicals were pretty similar. if i had to pick one, i'd probably pick the LM radical. the new microgel wasnt too different or any better imo.

as for prestiges, my top 2 are the i.prestige and the fp prestige. i didnt like the LM prestige because of it's hollow feel...and it felt like it had no sweetspot.

Which one is most similar to the i.prestige??
and most similar to the PC600??

Anyone????

i hit with the microgel prestige today, feels identical to the i.prestige apart from the different feeling of the shiny paint job vs matte finish of i.prestige.

if u like the i.prestige, lets unite and beg head to make a batch for us, otherwise pay a premium for the new microgel version which is prob the best prestige since the i,prestige

Sold/Trading both my racquets(k90 up for sale now) b/c i couldnt find the rhythm with them. Im a power/topspin baseliner, and i come to net often. I go for kick/spin first serve and a spin second serve. Forhand is my main weapon and i get plenty of winners with it, just starting to change from a 1HBH to a 2HBH due to incostistency with one hand.

Im really looking into the Prestiges though despite what others think. The Liquidmetal Prestige Mid and the Flexpoint Prestige Mid look really good.

 

[mattyc]

WAIT for the microgel prestige!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course most recommendations are for demo only since we don't know your game. I've hit with most Head frames and liked the iPrestige and the FXP Prestige MP. The FXP Prestige has been a big seller with a loyal following and it is a nice, crisp slightly lighter swinging version of the LM Prestige. The Microgel Prestige has a good buzz so far from those that have tried it. Like Wilson going from the nCodes to the KFactors - Head is moving away from the Flexpoints to Microgel. Typical year or two introduction of "new technology". When the dust settles I believe you should throw the marketing of technology (in most cases) out the window and just go with what feels right. Good luck.

Any other recommendations?

Alot of people say they didnt like the LM Prestige. I love it, and it looks great.. But I will definately be trying out the MG Prestige when it arrives.. Infact I am desperate to get my hands on one now. But no one is willing to help me out

 

[Shashwat]

From all you Head users, how does it go? PC600 > i.Prestige > LM Prestige > FXP Prestige? How do you rank all the great Head frames?
