i think no more ppl using conti grip to hit forehand.... tis mainly use for serve, volley, overhead, slice.....
even eastern grip is no longer popular.... the so called modern easter fh is like henman, gasquet, graf, davenport and sampras where they apply spin finishing as well.....
i miss those flat eastern forehand..... if u watch petr korda hit fh than u will b amazed how could he hit that kinda shot so consistently... bro prae, did u watch this guy b4?
the only close flat eastern fh nowadays is the lengchai stepanek.......... but even that, fh is still his weakest shot cox eastern flat fh is so hard to maintain especially on long rally..... same like gasquet, on the middle ball, all (especially fedal) will prefer to take fh, except gasquet where he will move to his bh........

hehehe........
but i m so scared to change racket now.... the blx blade looks nice only... havent played b4 still dont know how its feel....
but my ex blx 6.1 team really disappointed.......
i dont think i will buy another blx......... at one time i almost wanna write on wilson fb wall that their slogan. BLX the ultimate feel = no feel?!
why dun try blx tour? the henin's stick.. blade seems heavier..
once i tried k6 team.. couldn get used to it.. too demanding..
