    all the grips are karakal, all of them pu except for the two blue ones. On the lepton is the breathable one and on the karkal sl70 is a kumfy grip. PU is always the best. I put them that becuase with those two rackets one day i pklayed a net kill with each of them using that part of the frame. At that time i had no grip up there, i have no idea how i held on. Since then, those two rackets have been up to about a third up the shaft (ive never act played the net kill with the grip yet...)

    and the lepton is a joke. both the sl 70 and superlight 79 are sooooooo much lighter, perhaps its head heavy? it was sold to me direct from kason UK, with the promise it was both head light an extremely light. ITS NOT

    Main weapon is the SOTX D600 Woven 8 gets an outing every so often for doubles and the Yehlex nano 9900 is for singles when strings break on the D600
