    Definitely not a Ti-10. Looks like the ZF to me. Carsten Mogensen seems to use it as well in the European Championships...

    That would appear so, playtesting in tournaments which can be productive (immediate advertising value just like LCW's AE) if he wins!:cool:

    And for those who wonder how to thicken the butt cap to get the grip end bulge, this is how you do it using athletes' tape :D

    Not the same as building up that ridge, which is better at preventing your palm from sliding off the end, even if you gripped it loosely.

    J. Lo or Kim Kardashian butt?:D

    As for the butt cap area, it helps to prevent grip slips unless one builds an anatomical bulge down the middle of the grip.:cool:

    by adding little weight at end of but cap also increase maneuverability for headheavy racket.

    by adding weight at the end of butt cap to head heavy racquets makes the shaft flex a bit more than it should be originally.

    according to Ants LCW style overgrip video, i always thought of it as to avoid smashing your fingers against the floor when you dive for a shot :p

    to me though its a gentle reminder for me to either to shift my grip downwards to smash or move upwards for net shots :p

    That is correct, because the head weight does not change at all. Thus when the racquet may seem to be less head heavy due to the additional weight at the other end, the head weight will still follow through nonetheless. The disadvantage to this is that the overall weight of the racquet will also increase and for those who are not used to heavy racquets it affects agility and maneuverability.

    Hi guys,

    I think the 19 kg concept is that it can hold a object which weighs 19kg in the string bed without the shaft breaking off.I dont think that it can be strung up to 42 pounds as then it will be similar to a tennis racket,no way you can play badminton holding the racket with two hands.Gutting the racket to such an extent will cause serious injuries when playing badminton with that racket.

    Thanks.
