QUOTE(praetorian @ Nov 14 2009, 06:52 AM) *yawn* I just woke up, went down to the courts to send some rackets, came home and lo and behold a email telling more Topspin products are available sheesh.....I think this will be a never ending story..... Topspins Cyber Black Topspins Cyber Red Topspin Cyber Whirl Octogonal Orange Here is the shops link for thoe who may wish to buy :http://shop.topspintennis.de/tennisstrings-sets.67.0.html Is it me, or is Topspin starting to really take some other's strings and then re-market it as their own (like they did with the Unique Big Hitter)? The Black looks awfully similar to the signum-tornado.... maybe it's just me.

I didn't want to say anything about it but I agree, there is another string I suspect that looks like it ripped off Signum's Tornado and that is MSV Hepta Twist, pics are below: Attached thumbnail(s)

They may be the same concept but atleast MSV's gauge are thicker among all their ranges. The topspin? Just go look at their website, completely the same gauge among all ranges and material build as the Signum Tornado.

To be frank, Chan actually improved alot d. His backhand looks very nice too. And its not dat bad stroking wif Chan wat, he's quite good at returning ball. Added on November 14, 2009, 8:41 pmI know Chan back in the days he started playing. Was a fren of Kev's fren. Now Kev's fren already retired from tennis but Chan is still playing. ; ) Added on November 14, 2009, 9:27 pmHmmm... now wondering tomolo wanna play or not? Sure Sunway courts all wet d.

Our brother chip uses it man. Gamma shockbuster 1. I find it to have too much dampening though.

ming, i think the rubber band was popularised by agassi leh... sampras uses the "O" dampers. u can still get them at sportprises for about 15 for 2. the black and red ones are of differing softness, hence providing different damping feel. i agree with u though, although for different reasons. the gamma one is a bit too agressive in damping and i find its quite heavy also...
