Goooooooood match.

@Edu2503 I have no doubt that every racket Fed has had has been customized to his exact liking - every pro has specific adjustments that they make to their rackets. The Six.One Tour BLX he has had since the start of 2010 could easily be customized to the way he has used previous rackets.

@3timeMVPNash I checked out his official website. It says that he uses a modified 6.0 Tour with BLX technology, with head shape of the PS 6.0 85 (90 square inches hitting area). Weights 12.5 ounces and has a thin beam of 18 millimiters. Grip size: 4 3/8 inches (L3). Strings: 21.5kg mains/20kg crosses pre stretched 20%, Wilson Natural Gut 16 gauge (cross) and Luxilon Big Banger ALU Power Rough 16L gauge polyester (main). Tension depending on surface, weather, balls, opponent, etc.

@Edu2503 Yes, an "unidentified source" and a seven year-old thread. Who knows what Roger has done since then?

@Edu2503 How do you know that his racquets are made from a different mold?
-
@3timeMVPNash Not only the specs are customized. I told you that his raquets are made out of a different mold (Modified Pro Staff 6.0 85). The models on sale are not made out of this this mold. That's the difference. PERIOD.
-
@Edu2503 What do you mean "the exact model he uses is not for sale?" He uses (well, used, since he's getting a new one at the start of 2012) the BLX and has for the past two years. The specs are obviously customized to his liking but the model is the same.
-
@3timeMVPNash Let's say this: He is advertising the technology in his racquets (BLX), but the exact model he uses is not for sale.
-
@Edu2503 All I'm saying is that Wilson wouldn't falsely advertise Federer using a racquet that he isn't using.
Which Wilson model racket is Fed using in this match?
