    I only use Yonex super grap right now. However, about to order some Babolat VS overgrip (0.44mm?) soon, to compare.

    I see you have different grip sizes. Do you use them all and under what circumstances? Which is your favourite? The grips look generally big for me.

    Well, I am trying to get about G3.5 :), I think one step further than the G4 suits me the best.
    If a racket is G5, I will add two layers of SuperGrap
    If a racket is G4, I will add one layer of SuperGrap.

    If you see rackets handle is small or unwrapped, that means that one is not in use :)
    Also, if you see rackets handle are big, that means that one is probably the one I don't use very often.

    That's very possible :p
    (since I'll probably have another 6 coming up soon)

    Oh, Don't forget about adding the ".COM" at the end ! :D:D

    I too like BRL's composition - very interesting background.

    But where is Wilfred's?

    I have over 50 rackets now.....and I bet I can make "www.badmintoncentral.com" without any problem.

    I have never seen so many Ti10s......there are about a dozen in my hands now.... :eek:

    PS: I have two Ti10s in here with 2004 Feb. dated in serials. Very impressive that Yonex is still making them (but with limited production)

    Yes, there seems to be a niche in the N.A. market for you:p. Hope you don't get too much trouble moving those bulks of racquets back to the States;).
