COACH ANDREW MAKES A TENNIS RACKET CHANGE. WHAT DID HE SWITCH TO AND WHY.

[@evancarney9463]

lucky you have these two coaches. they always switch racquets so you always have content haha

[@WickedRichie]

lmao facts

[@kikibeldandy]

Been waiting for this video for so long.

[@squirrelprooffeeder]

"we're all King Arthur and Ponce de Leon" -- brilliant

[@tedneanderthal7373]

I am so tired of the racquet merry-go-round where every line is updated around every 2 years. You get used to a frame and then you can't get another one because the specifications have changed.

[@emjay2045]

All about the money and capitalism. When you find one you like - immediately buy another or two so you’ll be good for at least five years

[@b.lakeberg7456]

It would be interesting to break down Gu's true specs and do a series an updated customizing a tennis racket series.

[@jeanb.3493]

I think the VDM tech is the main culprit. I played with the red 2018 VCore 95 for a while, and came back to the new one, after selling those in search of something better a while back. The new ones are nice with a. little extra pop, but they have that muted feel that comes with VDM. Iirc, the new ones are not only thinner in the top, they have a bit thicker at the throat and in the middle, so there's that as well. I'm currently demoing the new VCORE Pro 97 (310), and that also has a slightly thicker beam and VDM, which takes away the magic from the DG version (which I believe is the actual model most VCP endorsers use).

[@sexyminh]

Great comment. I purchased the 2018 Vcore 95 model this year. Haven't played with it yet but am excited to in the coming months. I'm an advanced player and have been testing rackets for a solid year. Haven't found the right one. I pray this is it. I need feel, plus I play very flat and aggressive.

[@kikibeldandy]

VDM= counterfail.

[@ankitdementor]

Love that wall of wooden racquets. 😍

[@nathanmiller6051]

Great video thanks 👍 appreciate you guys!

[@kutayyurtsever3619]

Have been using Vcore 95 2018 since it was released with some lead tape, but I found 2021 version with leathergrip and weight on hoop better for volleys, slice and ohbh and more stable than older version, maybe slightly less feel but leathergrip help improve it a lot, so that could be an option if higher weight is not an issue... even prefer it over the Regna as it provides more control and beam specs are already very similar. Would love to try wilson pro-stock but I will stick to my Yonexes for sometime, including the old Duel G 330.

[@nickolasadams117]

y favourite racket of all times was the head prestige Pro 600 (89inch) and the weight and feel has not been surpassed in my eyes. nowadays we are all using different rackets rackets and my question is....can these new rackets,whether they are head or wilson rackets,be customised to feel like the Head prestige 600....just with a bigger head,sweet spot and obvioously power?

[@wongjefx980]

... I have a 1960s SEARS SUPER ACE wooden racket on my wall... I use it as a picture frame and is supported by a screw where the screw head is inside an old tennis ball...

[@BullyGarfield.]

This is random but I just want thin beamed (19-20 mm beam), 16x19 string pattern, 95 square inch, 320 grams unstrung pro staff. Thin Beamed pro staffs need to come back!

[@cadethompson3617]

sounds a lot like the Dunlop CX 200 Tour 16x19

[@bowsershark]

Bully Garfield Yes, and they are ideal for customization. I still like my thin beam 95 PS 6.1. It plays great with syn gut, multifiber, co poly or hybrid set ups.

[@KidInTheHallway]

Hey Harry i was curious on your thoughts of the old aerostorms/pure aero vs? What did you think of those?

[@sexyminh]

He never replies to our comments. Although we appreciate him, if I find this part very annoying. The lack of replies

[@CourtsideAfterHours]

They were a great racquet but a little stiff compared to the new ones. The new technology that babolat is using offers better feel and is more arm friendly then before.

[@CourtsideAfterHours]

@@sexyminh check out our page! We are a small tennis store (we have two locations.. I run one and my husband runs the other) in Northern California. Not far from Harry. Feel free to follow it to ask us whatever questions you might have. I love being able to help people with this amazing sport snd the equipment

[@sexyminh]

@@CourtsideAfterHours I see. Thanks for the notice. As I said, it is quite frustrating for fans that ask him questions and him never responding to a single comment. But know I/we know. Will definitely utilize the site directly for question. Harry should consider doing monthly live steams via KZbin where fans can ask him all tennis queries.

[@cheesquilin962]

I like your channel congratulations, I'd like your opinion, totally unrelated to this topic. I'm searching for CONTROL oriented multifilament/synthetic gut, do not like poly or hybrids, the best I've found so far are tnt react pro and head rip. Obviously maxing out tension goes along with that. Thanks in advance.

[@CourtsideAfterHours]

Why don’t you try the Rexis Speed from Yonex? It’s a little stiffer so it will give you more spin and control. It actually has a poly core surrounded by syn gut. Check out and follow our KZbin page! Feel free to ask us any questions you might have :)

[@bowsershark]

Head multifiber control version if it is still available.

[@zacka2913]

Where can you buy the blade pro?

[@BangBang-tj2rc]

From the Wilson website

[@kaneyanagawa]

How does this Blade Pro compare to the RF once weighted up?

[@kikibeldandy]

Totally different, rf is really HL.

[@michaelp9061]

The H22 blade pro is one of the best racquets ever made available on retail. I love both string patterns in their own way.

[@DanTuber]

Just give him the regna

[@cheeseburgerbacon12]

Does anyone know what strings hes using?

[@ChrisKimDMD]

Congrats, Coach Gu, trying out new equipment is huge fun

[@hunterisweird.1]

Nice vid

[@ALC-bd1pm]

This is great info. And this sounds like a Tennis 🎾 Racquet Geek Show 🎙. Very informative. 👍😉

[@ssportslivetvstreaming]

does the blade has an oval shape or round shape like babolats?

[@kikibeldandy]

Oval.

[@ssportslivetvstreaming]

@@kikibeldandy the blade pro is more rounded?

[@michaelp9061]

Hope one day H22 can be easily bought at retail.

[@kikibeldandy]

Not happening, gotta pay full retail.

[@Bob-hq5lj]

I see the Spalding on the wall you used to hit against the wall. Beautiful stick

[@Ingeborg323]

Ooooohh - i got something in my mind, to rebuild a classical racket ( standing, upward-shifted oval) with 85 to 88 sqinchs with ca. 62 RA an with descendingly tapering handle-shaft area to approx. 22 mm ( like ,,vintage" Kneissl White Star-rackets) with 18/19-Pattern for using only two knots! A racket for feeling like ,,coming Home" with classical feeling, better sweet spot, control like classical Head-racket combined with modern speed! I can do this, when i get the technical resources and the suppoert of CAD! For this i´am searching, then I will give you tennis rackets that will blow your mind, not such a mass uniform shit !!! Then we will again have very different and more individual players with very different and more independent striking techniques! Because that, just that - the individuality and the skill - was and is the SOUL of tennis! Not power for power's sake, that doesn't interest me and I can't look at it anymore! That's why I don't watch Djokovic or Nadal or anyone else, it's boring and technically poor and primitive!

[@jonathanchen1026]

Wilson grips don’t feel generous, Wilson grips usually shrink in size

[@carvalhorp8]

Review Volk V-Fuse, looks like good. Keep user driven not sponsor driven channel.

[@LittleGuyZeus]

Can the coaches show a close up on the grip with them holding it? (for grip size) not sure if there is already a video...I've seen the one where you go over what grip you should get and how players choose smaller grips now, but its kind of hard to judge...

[@BullyGarfield.]

I think that there is a new blade coming this year (2021). let’s see how that goes. hopefully no free flex and just regular solid blade.

[@vanshagarwal2362]

Currently there are selling the old blade version (countervail paint job but without the countervail tech). That’s a step in the positive direction

[@bowsershark]

You like it due to the flex but knocked it because it was not as stiff as the ProStaff. Aaaah! The famous popular H22 with the spin friendly string pattern. How in the hell do you customize a racquet for GU and let another knucklehead mess up the lead tape job?

[@lexi5589]

Y not stay with the old yonex

[@emjay2045]

Because that’s no fun. 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@nd7434]

Then they'd run out of content.

[@sexyminh]

Same. I think either he damaged it or looking for something to improve his game further. It wasn't properly addressed in the video. Harry, explain to us specifically why Andrew changed rackets. Was it because he wanted to improve his game or what? REPLY old man!

[@golfendeavor8267]

man, the custom specs stories are even more anal than in the golf game where everyone is experiments, at least the better players.

[@GeneralRock114]

Why change?? Can’t he still get the old version???

[@sexyminh]

They aren't restocking. But I don't know why he didn't keep playing with his Vcore. Unless he damaged it or something. Wish they told us. Doubt Harry will. He's a fool in the replying to comments department

[@kikibeldandy]

Gu used to play with blade during his college career, got to try blade pro and he liked it.

[@jesterkatz223]

Regna 98 get it coach!

[@jessiethomas907]

I have a question do you know the value of a HEAD TOUR PRO OVERSIZE 280

[@RobsTennisVids]

Funny how he says the Blade Pro feels like an old Blade...... It's only a Blade in name/paint. It's absolutely nothing like any of the Blades. Even good players drink the Kool-Aid.

[@bowsershark]

Now they know it is a pro stock H22 painted like a blade. For some reason we have to deduce this because they were fooled by it lying around. Then, they found out it was a pro stock H22. But, they still refer to it as a blade because that is what the paint job displays.😌 That open pattern is wild, huh!

[@kamalsivanand8284]

Ok

[@svlagonda7417]

H22 is the best.

[@abokickel]

H19 is better.

[@sam8922]

Why does noone like 18x20?

[@kwii22789]

more people appreciate the extra spin

[@joy_love1]

i enjoy 18/20 👍First 2.5 years i was playing with 16/19 mostly but now I prefer 18/20, or any dense pattern like 16/20, 18/19...I enjoy the control and accuracy it provides, power I can generate on my own, when I need I can spin the ball...also 18/20 hold tension better

[@Siloguy]

Seems to be more popular with younger players on the men's tour, Tsitsipas, Thiem, Raonic, Zverev, Rublev. Djokovic until a couple of years ago used 18x20

[@sexyminh]

Lacks spin. But great for flat shots. I've moved away from 18x20 myself. Transitioned to the VCORE 95 2018 model

[@jenkinssthomson8879]

Just work on your game; it’s you not the racket. Anyway, stop looking for excuses to get a new racket. You can always buy any old racket on Ebay. Aint nthn but xcuses.

[@sam74]

Duh! Use lead tape, change your strings.... 🙄
