    you must of seen it before, it's about 10 years old and i got it free from a course i went on. it's such a legendary racket, i was actually using it in matches a couple of seasons ago.

    as you might see i have already broken the strings on my babolat nitro:crying: , i played them in and then a few games later at that training session, SNAP!! the shuttle even got stuck in the strings.

    are they the only numbers on the cone? if you read it like a normal date you will see what i mean (apart from the last number which is the number of racket from that day)
