    If you really love a racket, one isn't enough and sometimes having two still not good enough.

    I would be super happy to get the PRO X1 to accompany my favorite racket - JPX LTD :D

    Is it really necessary to have the word CALIBER that big?? I've seen such design treatment in many rackets and they sure look horrible:confused:

    I maybe agree with you, it doesn't really necessary to have that big word printed on the frame. Mizuno seems to take a lesson and in their newer racket, it does look amazing (check the latest JPX series), some wordings printed nicely on the head frame.

    First impression with VS Tour. It has the same final weight with JPX LTD, 85gr. The head weight is a bit heavier, 40gr, while JPX LTD is 39gr, I don't see this as a big difference. I really want to test it tonight but I'm a bit busy this coming weekend. Will play again next week.

    39gr head weight is the same as my NR900SE. Do you have NR900? Can you make comparison between JPX LTD & NR900?

    Not any more. I don't like NR900. I didn't get the feelings, power and speed of NR900 is average for me. I used it for 2 weeks. I do like NR800 4U.

    39gr head weight with 85gr total weight for LTD. I don't think your NR900 has weight 85gr, it has to be more than 89gr.

    In my opinion, comparing LTD and NR900 is easy. LTD won in many aspects, power, speed, handling, solid feelings from its shaft.

    For you. :)

    For me, JPX LTD is superb. I don't like N9ii, but i would never call it Rubbish.

    You probably missed it.

    I removed the original factory grip and only use an overgrip. See the pics.

    The final weight 85g. Fall into 4U range.

    Actually 85.0g and above is 3U. By conventional standards. Everyone accepts that except Apacs lol.
