Studio R Mid valley selling RM458 (RED)

Ouch RM458 is retail price, dunno if they offer discount or not, I have seen that shoe for RM350-RM380 depending on who you ask, stock is limited for the Red version or either 'sold out'.
I am in no real hurry as I still have a few pair of new shoes left, but I am always looking to try new model good shoes, who isn't?! :-p

tonight , french open semis... woohoo.. good matchups..

fed vs djoko - who do u think gonna take this? i hope djoker takes it.. its time for a new no.1 .. smile.gif
murray vs rafa - can murray defeat the bull ..

.....kev....kev....for these 2 matches....I have already bought my stack of chips/dips/BBQ chicken wings,popcorn, beer, ice, vodka, grilled prawns, satay......my phone is gonna be switched off at 7pm....I am gonna take a nice shower before the match...then I am gonna watch 4 guys duke it out !!!!

My pick......if Federer is even a step slow, or has a dip in form, goodbye to that set, I honestly think the 4 days of rest of Novak has recharged his batteries, even if this match goes to 5 sets over 4 hours, I don't think it will affect Novak a bit, for the final. However Fed has not dropped a set, he has looked inconsistent a tad when playing, if his killer instinct and play work cohesively I see him winning this match....I see Federer winning the match in 5 sets.
If Fed ......plays hit and miss, Novak in 3 straight sets......


Ok for Nadal Vs Murray.......
Its a no brainer for me, Nadal was either fakin his terrible play from the 2nd round to the 4th round, he played really well against Soldering in the quarter final......I find that almost impossible to find that kind of form over night! Damn you Rafa!!! I have to spent people makan this weekend!!!!
According to the internet....Murray is taking on average 20 PAIN killers a day......I dunno if the ATP should allow this, as it kind of bordering against the rules, with anti-doping etc....will this have a negative impact on Murray later in life!?!! ....Low sperm count :-O.....

Sorry I seee Rafa in 4 sets.

T22 is not that old, I am wearing a Prince T22 I am a huge fan, great comfortability, durability so far its holding up pretty well. I am now targeting Babolat Propulse 3 as that shoe looks kick ass, reviews are quite good, however waiting for price to drop abit......

wah today alot of people try and kipas me is it!?!!!
Aiyooo!!!!

TK no hurry lol.....like I said once I am down to my 2nd last pair of shoe, I will most likely buy a pair to test....so far I am digging the Prince T22. Its pretty cheap compared to Nike and Adidas......less than RM300....of course if you really hard working you can get the shoe, so I have heard around RM220-270? Plus or minus lah....

I am thinking of trying this Babolat Propulse 3 if its really good, it can be my go to shoe, but at RM350-380 a pop....the price is a bit of a turn off.....if the Prince T22 really last as long as I think it should, then I will most likely stick with them.

But that Propulse 3 really is a kickass lookin shoe! Sorry lah TK may be red not your colour, coz it remind you too much of *censored* insert bad vulgar joke here :-p

inv....I will catch up with you guys one of these days...just need to find time!!!
<3

To everyone , and kev if anyone has seen the Wilson Eco Pro Tour Super Six pack in red or black & gold, let me know your thoughts on it, IT MUST have the insulated drink compartment, otherwise its not the bag I am looking for.......thanks! <3

Added on June 3, 2011, 9:42 amHave anyone of u guys tried head sonic pro strings .. i strung it with my tecnifibre stick and it seems very stiff and didnt like the feel of it .. hated it .. strung it at 52 lbs .. my shots were all goin long n it didnt have any feel at all.. now thinking of cutting it away edi.. sad.gif

I had it strung on my Dunlop Aerogel 200(non 4d) last time. Battousai suggested it to me. And yes it did feel stiff. However I thought it gave me a lot of control. But no power really.

On the other hand, I'm finally gona restring my K Blade Tour with Luxilon Big Banger ALU! Can't wait to test it. rclxms.gif Any suggestions as to which string should I hybrid it with?

Hey dude! What's up? Nah not really. I'm sticking to my K Blade Tours. So no point of keeping the Dunlop Aerogel 4d 300 Tours.

Kev...like you said and good observation....I will phrase it like this:
Stiff racket nowadays use semi stiff string or soft string at low tension 48-54lbs....if you prefer higher thats up to you.

Soft rackets ie RA rating of 60 or less, you probably can use stiffer strings and string like normal, but the feedback I get is that they still string around 52-58lbs, very seldom do I see people here string 60lbs or above.

Hmmm K Blade with ALU Big Banger....depend on what you like for a safer but comfortable tension I'd recommend between the range of 50-54lbs, as ALU is a STIFF string, if you like the papan feeling by all means string it higher....

Prae,

I think i'll just stick to my usual soft strings for my tecnifibre racket.. so far redcode, xcode and pacific polyforce are quite suitable with that racket .. or maybe pro supex's , or topspin...

Nadal should beat Murray with relative ease.
The match to watch today is Roj vs Djoko.
