What Racquet do you use?

[haterade]

Mine is a Babolat Roddick with Babolat Hurricane strings. Better than any of the Wilson Hammer racquets I used to play with.

I don't play as often as I used to, but I (honestly) still use my Adidas GTX Pro (Ivan Lendl) - still have two of them...

35 pounds? That is either a typo or thats really really loose.

I use a Yonex RDis 100- Hewitt's paintjob at the moment. Love the feel and Control of Yonex's. It's a pretty solid stick this one.

I use a Snauwaert Ergonom.

No, not really. Anyone try one of these back in the 80's?

WTF is that!

WTF is that!

This funky-looking object, designed in Belgium, had a head tilted 42 degrees from the grip, supposedly aligning the sweet spot with the path of the ball. It was heavy, caused s******s at the club and went away. "Pretty much a novelty item," says David Sorin, who owned Snauwaert America.

The Snauwaert Ergonom was clearly an idea ahead of its time - and still is. But it did inspire a similar design from sports racquet manufacturer Neoxxline.
This is the CarvingStar Proxx Serie...

I so want one

Not a typo. It's unbelievable. Very handy for spin and kick.

I'd never be able to play with that. However there was a guy playing with his racquet at 27 pounds at the Aussie Open... I can't remember who it was I think it might've been Mark Knowles (doubles player), not quite sure.

It defiantly has it's disadvantages, but works nicely. After loosening off, I'd say it was about 30 pounds now. One advantage is the sweet spot is much bigger.

35 is very loose, what type of string are you using? It would be hard to control i'd imagine, like going for a shot down the line....

Using Prince Speedport Black with Luxilon Big Banger Rough mains and Wilson NXT crosses @ 58 lbs - fantastic combination for my game anyway.

 

[Skeeta Olly]

To start off, it was unbelievably difficult to control. Now that I'm used to it, it's great to play match with.
