I wonder if Youtube would pull it down. They do with other sporting events. It was funny when Andre broke the strings on the third racquet he walked over to Mark's bag and took two out and then just tossed one away. Mark said he didn't know why he would let Andre use his racquet and Andre said you've had all set to use your racquet but all you're gonna do is serve with hit. Then he said you know how thrillled this racquet was to see a backhand hit like that :rofl:

I've been back 5 pages and from what I could see I don't see an answer to this question ... Don't crucify me please if it's there

Are there RDs for the 3s? Is 21st real RD for pinstripes or just that 1 site?
 
No US release date yet for the 3's. They sold from an overseas site so far but that's it. The Pinstripes will release on some other euro sites as well. I'll update page 1 as soon as we hear more info.

Cool. I wonder how accurate it really is... lol.
What kind of rev-numbers do you have on your groundies? 


Lol, I know the guy... Not sure he runs the "service" anymore cuz there might have been copyright issues.  I'll ask him.

I'm hitting like 67% power on groundstrokes, it's pretty accurate and makes me want to play more to get my community ranking up. Basically turned tennis into a real life video game for me and has me playing more. But yea, let me know about the guy with the Agassi DVDs, looking to get them in good quality

yea don't want to beat a dead horse but I think that was he worst retro release in either Nike or Jordan's history. How do u change the color and remove the logo? Would be like taking a jumpman off and replacing all the red w brown. I love those shoes but wouldn't even buy the yellows for $40 because they were that bad. Sorry to keep complaining but I'm still mad thinking about that retro. That being said, I'm super excited to this release, may double up if I can.

definitely one of the biggest screw ups for a retro release. The first Tech III retro sold so poorly that most stores didn't order the Tech II. On a side note fingers crossed the purple color way returns looking as detailed as the OG's

Just finished watching that vid.  Noticed several things...

Both guys hit the ball pretty well... Agassi certainly looked a lot better than during his IPLT match vs Santoro.  He said that he wasn't very prepared for that match, so I guess he made sure he was better this time around.  

Didn't the event have an on-site stringer?!  

Agassi only had 1 rubber band for all 3 of his racquets?!

Very curious to see what strings he was using after switching to Luxilon over 10 years ago.  Looked like natural gut, or perhaps some syn. multi.  His string broke in 2 places, one at the top of grommet, the other at the bottom.  I guess the grommets were just that bad. 
 
Biggest difference that I noticed from the last time he played was his movement. His back looked like it was feeling much better and he put a lot of torque into his shots. And he went back to the Vapor 9.5's.
 
Almost forgot... Agassi will play Muster in Stuttgart tonight (or tomorrow?) in an exo... on clay?!  The Porsche Tennis Grand Prix...

There was a stringer on site. During the Philippoussis/Courier clinic Philippoussis was requesting to someone to re-string a few of his racquets with slightly different tension. My guess is that AA broke the strings too late in the set to get new strings put on. And he must have figured that two racquets would suffice during the final.

Hope we can get some video of the Muster match!

Yea they had a stringer on site but because the match was only one set they didn't have time to get it done. During the broadcast they mentioned that they would have to consider using some type of racquet that was to be autographed but they didn't get into specifics. Obviously, they didn't go that route.
