I'm looking for a place to get these recessed grommets used in the Babolat X-Feel range of rackets you can see in the picture. All i found out is that they are supposed to be made from PEBAX, but that doesn't really help. I also contacted Babolat for this, but I never received a response. Can anyone help me out? As I live in Germany, I'd prefer a place in Germany, but any hint will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Did you ever hear back from anyone, find a somewhere to buy them or find a work around for this!? Cheers.
Nope. Sorry. Never heard anything. The obvious workaround would be to just use normal grommets. It will destroy the clean look and I think the quality of those grommets is pretty good. It was just a test racket and I finally bought the Babolat Satelite Blast, so I stopped looking. But since I'm not the only one interested, I'll try again. If you find out anything, please let me know.

I talked to a Babolat sponsored player (who plays a X-Feel) last week and he didn't know but he'll try to find out.
