A friend of mine want to let go a brand new (virgin) Murray's Barricade 6.0 for RM350. A US9 sized shoes, a confirmed hit with players during coming CTO. Does not matter if you lose, but still ada gaya. Interested? Please let me know.

Serves
Without a shadow of a doubt the best server in modern tennis is Pete Sampras.
Pete's first serve is not as fast as Goran's, Roddick, but his spin and placement is unreal....especially on 2nd serve, nowadays getting aced by a 2nd serve is rare.......

Single Backhand:
Old School: Laver,Ken Rosewall (his slice....makes Steffi Graf cry....) Lendl (his story is the same as Federer, early in his career his backhand was his weakest shot.....after 3-4 years of people constantly attacking it.....it become a weapon), Becker (this guy return of serve from backhand side....is gila especially for a single hander...) Edberg......his Edberg was a beautiful shot......so gracefull....McEnroe his backhand slice/chip and blocks were what made him able to attack the net at will....Sampras when it was on....game set match......Sampras.......Federer same story.......Guga.....Gaudio.......not a fan of Gasquet,Warinka.....

Double backhand: Borg, Wilander, Nalbandian,Kafelnikov,Nadal,Djokovic......

Slice backhand.....wah....normal baseline slice...Mats Wilander /Lendl their slice was very chun........attacking slice to approach net.....Edberg,Becker,McEnroe,Federer

Volley: hmmmm I liked Edberg,Beckers,Sampras,McEnroe

Mental strength : Sampras and Nadal.....


I ageeed on most of the list except Volley. There should be Rafter. :-D

At topper, they give 13.50 per can but at hock eng just 10.90 for dunlop fort all court. i bought 5 stuff from topper for total price 161.90. i'm requesting for 160.00 but he didn't want to because he told that the price he gave is cheaper.. shakehead.gif  but hock eng is different. I like greeting from hock eng tauke.. "come bro, choose want u want. if you feel the price is expensive, please complaint. i'll try to satisfy you"  rclxms.gif  rclxms.gif

thats d reason why his shop is always crowded, d new shop across d street which is also selling at decent price is also crowded, but only with their staffs.... damn pity to see that actually... d new shop boss also friendly... got my k6.1team from him at only rm200....

Topper's David...thats d way he manages his business.... not many complaints from my friends so war... Unlike Ultimate, 90% of my fr visited there said the boss n his son r cocky heads.... but i never been thr though....

to who wants good deal on old model at good price, the new shop in bangi got plenty of APD, APDGT, K Pro Tour, K Pro Open,

Karim Pin, they have have plenty of TF there as well....

isn't there a difference in balance point of TF and the prestige mp?
*
From tennis warehouse spec, TF320 is 7 points head light and LM Prestige MP is 8 points headlight and they are both difference in head size as TF is 95 vs 98 for LM Prestige. But according to some in tennis warehouse forum, HEAD measure the head size is from the outside in contrast to other manufacturer, so the head size for HEAD racquet should be less by 2. HEAD LM Prestige is 98 but if what is said in the forum is true, then the headsize of HEAD LM Prestige Mp should be 96.

the link for the above mentioned spec.

suggest that you demo the TF before purchase. even though the balance point is almost similar, the whippiness of the racket might not, due to the weight distribution in the hoop.
*
The swingweight is almost the same as TF is 324 vs Prestige MP is 325. Im not looking for something that will help to whip the ball, but something that is more stable(less work -just by dropping down racket's head) for volley in comparison to my Youtek Radical Pro, which i think a little bit flimsy.

Inv, this is for you our LYN next Nate Ferguson. Inv should have his shop named INV1.

karim,

I'm using the tf 320 but i dont think it feels like the prestige models. i can let u try mine..

i thought the prestige MP is a 18x20 .. i think the t-fight 325 feels more like the prestige because i tried that before also and quite like the tfight 325. more solid feel but the 320 generates more power n spin. i feel.
*
The reason for 320 is the open string pattern. :-)


BTW, Once again my Youtek Radical Pro is available for sales. Two stick one is 8/10 and another one is 10/10 condition both strung with RPM Blast at 58/57.

Cannot adjust to the new racket so try another racket, new to me, but an old racket, which was used by Verdasco in 2009. I bought it for RM370 inclusive of RPM Blast.

CK.....I am going to spoil your party..kekekeke
as much I would like Nadal to win more grand slams......but I think Djokovic should have a pretty good chance of defending his AO title....the real dark horse this year is Andy Murray.....why...he know has Ivan Lendl in his corner.......I see Murray as a threat in the AO and US Open.....Nadal chances of winning another French is incredibly high.....Wimbledon that's Federer's back yard he always has a good chance of winning the championship.

I really hope Murray to win a GS at least. C'mon Murray!!

btw, TF320 is a very light stick.
