yup .. wait till they come in full then probably the price will be nicer.. now they wanna gasak us lah .. lolx.. 

here u go brother (prae) .. my initial assessment on the racq:

just got back from an awesome session with ular. one of our better days. i just have one thing to say about the APDGT.. iT ROCCCCKKKSSS!!!!  . some of you might hate me now .. hehe... but i'm totally in luv with this stick right now ...

There's a reason why tennis-warehouse gav it a 84 (the highest for all the GT range). Still can't believe how nice it felt. The amount of spin you can generate from this stick will just blow your mind.

I started with my trusty PSGT. played probably a good 30min with it so that Viper can have a benchmark between both racqs (since he's on the receiving side). From his feedback, the change was quite dramatic.. the psgt was flatter and with the apdgt he was pinned at the baseline most of the time and much harder to anticipate the kick off the ground.

As for the feel, ground stroke is so easy and spin is just wicked. I can take bigger swing at it and still every shot goes down just right at the baseline. Thus giving better control. Forehand has never felt so much easier .. the pace generated is spectacular. I hav a weak crosscourt FH.. and tend to overswing and chances of going out very high. But with the APDGT .. most of my cross-court goes in n kicks up high to draw the opponent out.
Serves, i did a few .. way much easier to hit than my PSGT. Basically this racquet is loaded with power and spin potential. Contact is also very solid and no vibration. Tried with dampener and without. Both playable. Keeping rallies and returning hard shots are relatively easier as well since the natural swing of the racq tends to generate tonnes of spin.

Summary, for me .. i think this is my new luv. By far best racquet of the year (to date). But not giving up on my PSGT. both plays very different. PSGT more towards flatter .. lower clearance shots... APDGT, easier and more power to bring the ball down.. also more consistency.

Temped to buy another APDGT...hehe... mayb try out a grip 2  (since nadal using one now) .. haha
BLX 6.1 95 - Tough racquet .. find it very hard to play with ... too stiff .. after 10min of playign iwht it .. my arm felt like jello .. and quite hard to generate spin .. prob not that suitable for my style of playing but i'll keep that piece just to complement my bag smile.gif

hope to see WTS in for your equipment soon brows.gif whistling.gif

dun say review lah bro ..hahaha... just own personal hitting exp onli .. smile.gif frankly just rallying .. not really into tourneys etc.. just wanna hav a solid whack at the ball ... so all based on that ... nothing fancy .. just pure RAGE !! ..

rm300 is way too low bro esp the Head speedMP ... i think was retailing ard rm999 last time...  so u'll hav to dig deeper dude... can giv u a bit more discount but not that low lah
*
hehe that also call personal review maa.. hehe.. i think open string can suit my style of playing because i tend to hit the ball out of play many times.. smile.gif need to generate more spin of the ball.. backhand also need to improve some more.. doh.gif

Hello People

I have 2 used PSGT grip size L3 (changed to leather grip) for sale. Please PM for price. Condition used, so with some scratches on the frame. Only serious buyers.

Maybe u can open new WTS thread regarding the complete details of the racket, perhaps some pictures if possible.. It will be easier for u to sell.. Many die hard Babolat fans here i believe.. icon_rolleyes.gif

Anyone interested in APDGT (L3), Youtek Radical MP (L3) and Youtek Radical Pro (L3)?

You can put a heat sleeve to bump it up a size or just add extra overgrip like i do...

any suggestion what overgrip to be used to apply on the original head youtek speed grip?.. it would be nice if the overgrip feels the same with the original grip of the youtek speed because i find it very comfortable and grip nicely..
