Will there be a Yonex Duel G extended?

[GN-001]

There are extended versions of the DR and SV range but no Duel G? Does anyone have any info?

Im currently using the previous version, Tour G 97 and have been thinking of upgrading soon and have just been holding out for either an extended Duel G or just a newer version. Being a short guy at 5'7, I feel like the extra half inch will help on the serves, which is one of my better shots. I've tried extended length racquets in the past and definitely feel like it helps on the serve and one handed backhand, I definitely get more spin too.

For those that have played with the DR and SV extended length racquets, what are your thoughts and how does it compare?

My ideal specs would look something like this:

headsize: 97 or 98
string pattern: 16x20 or 16x19
strung weight: 320-330g
swingweight: Not sure.
balance: 5 - 8pts headlight (depends on the weight)
Stiffness: 63-67
Beam: between 20-22mm

Might be better to post this in the TW Question section.

Another option would be to get an Angell TC97 16x19 in extended length at your preferred spec.

I'd take a look at the PK Ki Q+5X. Not exactly in the spec range you mentioned, but a pretty awesome stick for shorter guys. I'm 5'7 as well and I'm really grooving with it.
