近幾個月打少了好多球﹐因為天氣太不穩定及實在太熱了﹐而且Wii的Grand Slam Tennis也太好玩了﹐所以多左在室內對住個LCD電視打網球。遲D再找那些失散了幾個月的網友打波先。

The following is my My Tennis Racquet Collection, let me begin the thread…please share and post your collection. I still like those old-school racquets so much, owning one of these classic rackets is one thing, but true appreciation the meaning and history behind these classic rackets is another!

From left to right (app. manufacture date):

1. Babolat Pure Drive GT (2009) – SOLD
Got it from a net friend, mainly because I want to switch racquet after 20 years.

2. Wilson Prostaff 85 (1984), Taiwan version

3. Rossignol F200 Mat Wilander (1985), Made in France

4. Puma Boris Becker Super with PCS (1984), Made in Taiwan

5. Dunlop Max 200G Pro (1991), Made in England

6. Dunlop Max 200G 1st version (1983), Made in England
Got this hidden treasure last week from MK 龍騰, it’s definitely a great bargain considering the history of this 1st version. I hitted it yesterday finally. Wow! Just As advertised (Manufactured with the unique grafil injection molding system providing you with that solid feel on your every shot.), the mold injection works, absolutely ZERO vibration and feel great at the net.

7. Prince Super Graphite, 28 inches (1995) – SOLD
I got this mainly because I like Prince Boron so much and it looks like Boron but much lighter, so it’s also quite unstable when returning heavy ralley.

8. Prince Original Graphite Oversize 4 strips (1991), Grip 3, Oversize printed on top
This is the one I got in 1991 after changing from single back hand to double back hand, and it’s also the first POG I’ve got, I’ve been using it mainly over the last 20 years.

9. Head Prestige Classic 600(1985), Made in CZ on throat

10. Head Prestige Classic 600 (1988), Design in CZ

11. Head Prestige Classic 600 (1992), Design in CZ, TW version

12. Slazenger Ambassador Wooden (1962)
Bring back the days of Vilas and Nastase, it’s been used as a living room decoration since 2009
