Everyone that reads this should TRY this: before you start serving or playing (before warming up from the baseline) -- grab 2 raquets and do practice swings as you would normally for a full minute on each the backhand and forehand. (at least 30 swings). Then go play and you will feel like your racquet lost 40% of its weight and you will swing it faster.

been a gravity pro user for last 3 yrs and I am excited to try the 98 Tour. The reviews are all positive and the specs just make sense for my game. I can't imagine it feeling better the the GP but can't wait to find out.

I read on TW forum that Barty’s racket is about 320 grams strung and 325g SW only.

I feel your pain not finding your shoe size! I'm at a men's 15, and some of them available are a little narrow for me too.

It's crazy out here!! I'm currently using the Fila Axilus and it's been doing quite well. - Munish, TW

[@BigBagel]

@tenniswarehouse I had a different pair of Filas I didn't like at all due to poor cushioning, the ones that fit wide. Currently have the Nike Vapor Cage 4 Rafa's and they're great, but they are also leaving, so I need to find a new one soon. Any recommendations for ones similar to those?

What happened to the spicy topic of Eastern aesthetics vs western aesthetics , in tennis rackets and gear ? Wasabi vs Cajan .

@tenniswarehouse - I hope you could bring JW / TW Prof. again for the podcast. He is a walking encyclopedia on strings and racquets and he brings science to the conversation often based on “feel”.

[@tenniswarehouse]

Literally beg both of them on a weekly basis...don't think we will get JW back (but he is definitely involved with some of our episodes and topics, like the high and low string test...and more to come!). Will keep trying to get the Professor back...fingers crossed! Michelle, TW

[@EdmonBegoli]

@ thanks! Will TWU do any more tests of the strings. For example, of the new MSV Busard and Swift?

Was a fan of DC, but the more she whines and gripes, the less I like her...
