I’ve played tennis for 7 years and currently using a flexpoint instinct racket. I stuck on a problem that i cant find a racket similiar to the one i am using right now. Do you know any good rackets between 95-100inch midplus, around 300grams (weight)?

U can try WILSON K factor /power.
It might help.

The second step of the tennis forehand is to take your tennis racket back and extend your other, non-hitting, arm across your body. Having completed the pivot and shoulder turn, now you can use your hitting arm to take the tennis racket all the way back. At the same time, extend your other, non-hitting, arm across your body for balance and judgment of the tennis ball.

Here are the Tennis Rackets:

Wilson Six.One Tour BLX
Wilson Six.One Team BLX

So what are the differences? Please put reasoning in this. Thanks!

Basically, everything about these two frames is different. The only similarity is the related paint job and name. As far as how they play, they are completely different sticks. Wilson just calls it a SixOne Team to try to feed more off of Federer’s success and popularity, even though the two racquets aren’t similar at all.

The Tour is a very demanding stick. It’s best to be used by very advanced players because it’s not going to help you create any power. It’s all about control because of the high weight small head size. Intermediate players won’t be able to fully appreciate what this frame has to offer.

The Team is a little larger, considerably lighter… really has no specs similar to the Tour at all. Even the string pattern is different. It will help you out with power creation more than the Tour would because of the weight and size difference. It’s a good frame for intermediate players looking to move up to a smaller head size (95" is still somewhat small in today’s market), but who can’t handle the weight of something like the Tour.

As a side note, you see this kind of naming scheme running across several different brands. They have one (sometimes several) ‘flagship’ frames in their lineups. These are typically fairly demanding player’s frames that are used by some pros on tour. The company will then make a ‘Team’ version of that frame. These are lighter, sometimes larger versions aimed at your typical weekend player rather than serious, advanced players. In this case, people can feel like they are using Federer’s frame, even though it’s nothing like it at all.

i noticed that tennis players switch rackets during a match. some switch quite often while others switch once or twice during a whole match. Im guessing its the strings?

They have racquets with different string tensions, so they switch racquets depending if they want more control, power, or spin. Players also switch if they break the frame or strings.

With the Australian tennis open about to start, are there any rules about the tennis rackets used, ie shape, size, what they are made from etc

An official tennis racket must be built of a circular metal frame containing one layer interweved bits of plastic strings. The effect that the racket has on the ball and its physical composure must be identical on both sides of the racket – i.e., no double layering of the strings. The racket cannot exceed 73 cm in length and 31 cm in width.

Like in some movies they strap tennis rackets to their feet so they can walk out in a blizzard. By snowshoes I mean those things with a waffle pattern that allows you to walk on top of the snow. So, can you really use tennis rackets as snowshoes?

probably, but it would most likely make the racket strings freeze and later break so that you wouldn’t be able to walk on them for a long time. it is possible, though you might not want to try it…. hope this helps!

This is how to find the balance of your tennis racket. You’ll nee a balance bar similar to what is shown on the video. If you are steady, you can do the same with a broom stick and a yardstick.

Enjoy!
