Looks like Verdasco is with Yonex now, I dunno if its possible to photoshop this type of pic or not coz I am clueless about things like that, however it looks like a authentic Yonex due to Yonex being the only racket manufacturer to have 'isometric frames'

@ yan you should stencil the 'W' slightly lower but still its a good job!
I thought this was the racket that was gonna undergo 'special treatment'? Or is it a different racket? lol |

Ahhh the penny drops!! Verdasco was using the Yonex against ........SAMPRAS!
Verdasco won 6-3 7-6 (2) I personally have tried the Ncode series all models, some played well for some specific things, none of them averaged out to be my stick :-( Regarding stiffness I kinda liked it it was very crisp, however I think I could not serve really well with it, i could serve on average 80-90MPH on my first serves , if I tried to crank up the serves, it just wasn't there :-/ 2nd serves were very decent.Surprisingly I think the n6.1 tour an n95 16x18 (or 16x19) were strung at 60 lbs but with synthetic gut didn't feel that bad. Please make sure you test KAU KAU Viper's new baby, I think it should play like a k6.1 tour with slightly more flex, no idea abt dampening properties, but if you have hit with a BLX 6.1 tour please make a comparison if you can, THANKS bro!!! |

Its just awfully sad we don't have access to some great sticks, unfortunately some brands are just shunned coz no top pro is endorsing the racket.
c'mon kev buy it as well, partner crimson viper and eat your opponents alive!! (kkkkkiiiipassss) |

yan i am unkipasable :-p
to be honest I am very happy with my modified k6.1 tour, to me it already plays some what different to a original stock k 6.1 tour I have blind tested 6.1 tour stock frames and though I can play ok with it I cannot play as I should or know I can x-p I am not kidding the shops here are atrocious , if you lived here and were viewing the latest gears via tt-warehouse , you would wait till you die , here there was no release of the Wilson K-factor rackets.......they still have ncode court rackets but at RM599....wth ,right.Babalats I think there have the first storm and Pure drive only I personally have NOT seen any models sold after that generation..... |

QUOTE(marktty @ Feb 12 2010, 03:34 PM) I've updated the page with more pictures since some people think I'm not trustworthy enough.. I apologize in advance if I have offended it, it was not my intention.but its understandable.. I am glad to see your new pics, this confirms your Babolat racket is authentic. If I posted pics of a Babolat racket but without the woofer system and the opened trap door/ butt cap, i am pretty sure I would have some request's to post them. By doing this, most knowledgeable tennis enthusiasts can differentiate a counterfeit Babolat racket just by looking at the pics. Good Luck with your sale. |

QUOTE(Crimson Viper @ Feb 13 2010, 04:29 PM) Tennis Racquet review. Hi bro!Volkl Power bridge 10 mid size. [attachmentid=1444119] First of all, some specs: Unstrung Weight: 330g Balance: 10pts HL Swingweight: 337 Stiffness: 59 Beam Width: 19mm Straight Beam String Pattern: 16 Mains / 19 Crosses The racquet is strung with Babolat Pro Hurricane Tour @52 main, @50 cross. I received this racquet early this week, and have had the opportunity to spend 8 hours over the last 3 days to give it a good test drive. Apart from myself,Yan also spent a few minutes hitting with the racquet. I will just write a few of my observations having played with the racquet, but my only basis of comparison is with previous racquets I've used previously for long term i.e Wilson n61 95, Babolat Aero Pro Drive Original, Aeropro Drive Cortex, Wilson n61 90,Wilson kps 88 and Wilson k61 90. This is just my personal opinion regarding this frame. Forehand: Certainly, I tend to swing much faster with this racquet. It's much more polarised than the K90 I used previously. I also tend to drive through the ball more, as well. Off centre hits are stable, with little evidence of twisting. My forehands seem more consistent, and the so called " buttery" feel is rather prominent.If there's one thing this racquet does, it's to generate spin. So every session I play with this racquet, I get braver at taking bigger and bigger cuts at the ball. Somehow, they stay in more often than not. Ball pocketing is excellent. You seem to have time to hold the ball on the strings before deciding where to want to put it. It's rather deceptive , as it swings rather light , but the plough through is that of a much heavier frame. Lately, with my K90, I've found that my elbow was starting to ache before, during and after hitting sessions. With tennis elbow a possible problem, I am happy to have no such problem with this racquet as it's very flexible. I don't think it's as flexible as the specs indicate, but it's definitely more flexible than the K90.There's a lot more feel in this frame than the k90, though the k90 might be a more powerful frame. Backhand: Being an exponent of the two handed backhand, I was most relieved to use a racquet with a slightly bigger head. The K90 seem best suited for someone with a single handed backhand. I am able to control my backhand better, with more spin and power. Everything else is similar to what I described with the forehand. Serve: This is where the Volkl helps me most. Serving is so much easier with the Volkl. Placement is easy and power delivery is smooth. Kick serves are easier to produce. Flat serves may not be as good as it is with the kps88 or the k90, but it's right there just below them. I somehow find it a good "serve improvement" racquet. I am most excited to practice and improve my serve with this racquet. Return of Serve: Ok, if there's a weak point it's here. Not that stable against very heavy serves. The k90 and kps88 were significantly better here. Or maybe I just suck at trying to return serve ......hahaha...... Volley: It's excellent stick for volleying. Nothing much to say here, except that while the kps 88 and k90 is a better volleying stick, the volkl does pretty well punching the ball. Seems stable, and easy to control... Overall: I think overall, this will be my primary racquet of choice. Mainly for the fact that it is like a k90, with a slightly bigger head and better flex rating and lot's of feel and feedback.It's got a large sweetspot for a mid size frame, and is more forgiving. I may just get myself another one.... Thanks for the AWESOME kickass review! I am just curious, being a fellow k6.1 tour user, have you tried any 3rd generation soft poly's before? If you haven't I'd recommend Signum's Tornado or Hyperion, I string pretty low as well, below 50lbs, depends on my racket I have 2 on 45 lbs and 1 at 48 lbs now. Thanks again! |
