Im looking forward to this racket. parang ito nalang ang papabili ko. Even though the 98headsize'ish that I don't really like , 2inch lang naman ang pinagkaiba diba? hindi ko na pinoproblema yun haha.. anyways I don't really like ung 18x20 string pattern pero ung

Radical Pro nagagamitin ni Andy Murray for this 2012 is EXACTLY the same pero .1 lang ang pinagkaiba sa Weight at masmabigat ang Pro . Main skips ng MP is 9T 8T 10H while the Pro is 8H and 8T , Pati ang swingweight nya 10 lang ang difference na masmagaang ang Midplus , 18x20 and 16x19 parang ang speed line lang which has the 16x19 and 18x20. Mas SLIGHTLY masmagaang lang ang Radical. paging sir RACKETWIZ demo nyo na to para mabigay nyo samin ang FEEL ng game nyo.. thaaanks!

Kakatapos ko lang mag demo ng Youtek IG Radical Pro at  OS at Youtek IG Prestige MP.  Here's my experience with it.  Keep in mind this is all based on my strokes, play style and racket preference.  I hit with full western forehand and one handed western backhand both fast and full swing.  Continental volley and serve.  I prefer to play all-court.  I like flexible and medium light rackets preferably open string pattern.

IG Rad Pro:  this had a very similar feel to the Microgel Rad Pro.  It is too head heavy for my liking and slightly under powered even on clean hits.  I felt I had to swing extra hard to get penetration and depth for my groundies.  Even my hitting partner noticed.  Being head heavy, it felt stable on volleys but felt slower on reaction volleys.  Serves are okay but felt like I had less spin and pace.  All this may have been caused by the string being full poly and strung at 3 pounds higher than I'm used to.  I'm sure in the right hands this will be good.

IG Rad OS:  this one felt very similar to the Liquid Metal Rad OS.  It also had the trampoline effect!  Again, this was strung with full poly and 3 pounds higher than I'm used to.  I think this one can use just a tad more weight on the head to give it more stability.  Being OS, I expected more power but since it is considerably flexible at 59 flex, it felt like it lacks pop.  My groundies had a little more depth but felt like it lacked penetration.  Volleys and serves felt good.  Both felt like I had control but had to swing faster than my usual swing to get the penetration I'm looking for.  This will be good for older doubles specialists who is looking for a racket that has a generous sweet spot.  With the right string set up it probably can even provide some pop.

IG Prestige MP:  this one felt like the Youtek Prestige Mid only bigger at 98 sq. in.  The mid was my old weapon before I switched to the YT IG Speed MP 16x19.  I loved the mid but it just got too heavy for me.  Since I got used to the mid-plus, I find it difficult to find sweet spot on the mid.  This racket gave me that old feeling of the mid but with the bigger head size allowed me to find the sweet spot.  Compared to the weapon I use now his gave me more control, depth and penetration on everything.  I would have switched if not for me having trouble with the weight.  My arms get tired after a set but more importantly I'm almost always late on balls with good pace.  This would be good choice for someone who can handle the weight.

Overall, all of these rackets have great potential.  In the right hands they can be a game changer.  I can't wait to demo the S model for both the Rad and Prstige.  I think one of those might make me switch again.  I hope you guys find this personal review useful.

Burosky. Nademo mo na rin ung Wilson Pro Staffs?

Usually, Head rackets lang ang dine-demo ko.  Meron kasi akong discount sa Head.  Isa 'yon sa benefit namin bilang USPTA certified pro.  Malaki din ang discount.  Kadalasan, at least $40 - $50 less than the regular price na makikita mo sa tenniswarehouse.  Every quarter puwede ako bumili up to 3 or 4 rackets for people I know.  Hindi pa available sa amin yung YT IG Radical at Prestige with discount pero siguro by July or August available na.
