Don't like it....
Honestly it felt too flexible for me. Not nice when serving.

wow even with the double bridge thingy there ... still flexy ? shape looks similar to the exo3 graphite 100 / 93 ...
the exo3 very stiff... but still not as stiff as the k6.1 90

Yea even with the crossbar stabilizer I do feel it is a little bit too flexible still. It is the build of the racquet which makes the frame flexible though.

The K6.1 90 is indeed a very stiff racquet, but the old Babolat PDR is worst.... that one you really need Roddick's arm only can handle pouncing the balls.
*
ohh i didn't know the old PDR is that stiff... onli played with the new PDRGT which feels much softer (than even APDC ).. mm... one day must try out the old PDR n compare with the GT ..hehe..

btw i found a dunlop aerogel 300 with grip 3 in penang. possibly the last one in Malaysia. they are clearing off the aerogel 300 here in penang and after that won't bring it anymore. so i spur of moment bought it .. coz i wanna test out dunlop's grip 3 and see whether any significant diff. After that then possibly i'll sell it off and order the 4d300 from either Singapore or online. Oh just to update you on my trip to singapore.. couldn't find the grip 3 there too .. very limited and all sold out. sad.gif but they said can order if i want but will take awhile. So hence the reason i bought the older aerogel 300 grip 3 to really find out if the grip 3 is suitable or i need to go for the grip 4... since dunlop's grip is so damn small..

you can expect a WTS on this soon ... so anybody interested in this grip 3 aerogel300 after i go thru with it ? hehe... i'll string it up and giv you best deal in town .. ( i rent from you for demo )..haha

Attached Image ---- > can c the sticker grip 3 ?

hehe... anyways i called up topper from penang ( he even said possibly the last one in Malaysia ) ... that shop also has that only one unit only ...!!

the shop mercury sports they do tubing as well.. the one praetorian suggested ... meaning they can customize the grip fr l2 to l3 for rm25 i think. anyways was tempted to just get the grip 2 4d300 and tube it to grip 3 ... but cudn't decide then .

You have a Babolat Pure Drive Cortex too? notworthy.gif  That's a great racquet. I loved the original PD, the cortex version a little too muted for my liking.
The PDC is an intermediate to advance level racquet, what made you go for the Head Liquidmetal Heat, that is a more mid range racquet (well, apart from the price ) ? I would think you'd enjoy the PDC more.It's a beast!  You'd probably get bored with the Head.  smile.gif
o3 shark hybrid is pretty cool too...,but I dislike Prince racquets....hahahahahaha ( bad childhood memories!) tongue.gif

The stuff you bought are really worth it. Must let us know know where you got them. drool.gif

yah me too ...james pls share ur watering hole ... whistling.gif rclxms.gif i'm a sucker for good deals ... haha..

btw i'm back and will be here for at least 2 weeks... just realized this weekend is a long weekend... tennis till u drop ? smile.gif

Good Morning Everyone.

I'm looking for the Original Dry TournaGrip & basket for tennis ball. I'm thinking of getting them both this afternoon during lunch hour. I'm in tight schedule so it would be great to get them both at one shop.

I know Sportprises79 in Bangsar sells the TournaGrip. But not sure about the basket.

Questions:
Does HockEng in Bangi sells TournaGrip or basket for tennis ball?
Does Sportprises79 in Bangsar sells basket for tennis ball?
Anyone could recommend any shops that sells both of these items?
Does anyone has their contact number?

Any help is very much appreciated. Thanks in advanced. biggrin.gif
*
sportsprises sells tournagrip and basket as well. not sure the brand of basket they sell... i think is pete sampras (saw a signature basket version there). i'm sure of it as in they hav both ... saw a few basket lying on the floor near the PRINCE 5000 stringing machine ..keke ... will go visit him soon ... time to change my PDRGT's string
