Hmmm Speed again? that Throat/Shaft sure don't look like no GRAVITY I've ever seen.

Very similar to the Speed Pro Legend by the looks of the paint and general design

Head shape is not Speed. Speed is very oval; this has Gravity-style teardrop/upside-down-egg shape.

Throat and connection to the hoop looks like 2025 Gravity Tour (98in), Gravity MP, or 2023 Gravity Tour (100in) mold. Doesn't look like a Gravity Pro to me.

I think he's back to his 2023 Gravity Tour mold he tried switching to earlier this year, or he got an 18x20 version of the 2025 Gravity Tour.

Having a look at the first pictures, I thought the hoop shape is a little wider and more isometric like a Gravity and Boom hybrid, the lower part of the hoop also a little wider / rounder, ovrrall less pronounced tesr drop shape.

The bumper seems to be the current Gravity half cap and it is alslo exactly going doen tonthe fifth cross string. So exactly like Gravity Pro.

Looking at the lower picture with Zverev smiling to the cam, it looks exactly like the Gravity and I dont see any potrntial mild chsnges to the hoopndhape anymore.

I think it depends on the angle of view and if you are curious to identify anything that could be changed or update. Maybe it is the same. But could also be a slightly wieder beam, maybe a new Gravity Tour 100. He played the GT100 for a while and switched back to the GP. The yoke looks pretty wide. Maybe somebody owning a Gravity Pro can compare this part of the frame.

Yeah I can see what you're saying. It did look a bit wider and more "aero" shaped to me, especially in the Shaft compared to the Gravity, so yeah a new GTour100 would make sense for sure.

Gotta love the Pro's racquet silly season when it rock around
 
The side by side comparison picture talynen posted shows what I mean. The upper hoop looks more squarish / isometric, a little Boom style like a hybrid of Gravity tear drop and Boom roundish isometric. In total it looks slightly wider in the upper hoop like in an Ezone 2022 / 2025 comparison where Yonex has widened the isometric hoop.

But this can also be depending on the view angle or "will to see a difference". Most likely something has changed. Otherwise there would be no reason to blackout a frame that was released this year and became popular for the paintjob with Zverev and Rublev being the most popular endorsers of the Gravity line.

So maybe minor hoop shape changes and / or something in terms of beam width which could become clearer the more high resolution pictures from different view angles will be collected.

Quite interesting.

That mold has ZERO to do with the TK339 (Speed MP/Pro) mold

Cheers mate, I was making a bit of an estimate based on the current frames out there.

I'd love it to be something new , being a total racquet geek. Eg be cool if it might have something to do with that new model from the Russian video a couple of months ago. But just gotta wait and see

New models use exactly the same mold as previous ones (TK339) for a 100 sq in.
The blackout is the TGT341.2, the good ole GT100, or Gravity MP 18x20, whichever term you prefer...

Ahh ok.... cool. I should really try and get one of these to have a hit with
 
Legend PJ makes is look slimmer more aero
Has he tried the GT98? even with less surface area
it should suit his FH better than the 100 as he often
avoids the net and GT98 has more praise / reviews.
 
The yoke of it looks to be even wide while the Gravity Pro's yoke is getting slimmer in the middle. So for shure this is not a Gravity Pro.

Gravity GK Pro aka "Gatekeeper Legend"

Please an 18x20 GT98 . Even if it is just a pro stock haha.

Heads proven evenly spaced 18x19 will maintain the Pop/Spin on GT98
Slightly more open TF40-like 18x20 pattern for the 100 & 21mm is welcome
as the 100 needs it instead of over weighing to end up POG-like in an effort
of trying to keep up to current frames.
Other players and current upcomers avoid Zvevs Head stick, its not moving.
Zvev is Dead either way though as like Meds these Towers cant grind/Troll
other more aggressive play makers as they age, just is not happening.

Yep, I can also bet that he's back, as last year around this time, to the GT100 - with super low tension - (same ball sound on impact as last year)!

18x20
Based on where the knots are, I would guess it’s a Speed Pro. All knots on the Gravity Pro 2025 and Radical Tour 2025 are on the main strings. What do you think?
And that transition between the two colors at 2 o’clock looks weird.

I think so too; the impact-sound is the same as last year. That being said, I think that he should go lower in headsize like Casper did! A 98 in^2 / 22 mm beam makes more sense than a 100 / 20 IMO.

Is he with P1 now? He was using on site stringing for a while after he supposedly got dropped by his private stringer.

Very good spot.

There is a good chance he will be as that looks like their sticker.

Does anyone who has watched one of his matches in full seen if he sent any rackets to the stringer in the match?
