no it was the exact same color scheme red white and yellow, it was just a little thicker i think it was called the n code six one 95 and his was the 90 not sure what number his was. I used the exact one he had before and i didnt like it too much. If i ever play a lot again ill probably get the one he currently uses now.

Back in HS I played Varsity every year and had princes the entire time. Currently I havent played for a few months (broke my foot a a couple months back and have only had it all good to go for the past month and a half) but I have a couple of the O3 black/white series raquets (2007 mid-plus model).

I have two Babolat Aero Pro Drives, but an older version, like this.
My main problem right now is that one is strung with Hurricane strings, and the other uses some cheap generic ones. The Hurricane strings are a lot better(and the yellow looks better). I put Yonex overgrips on them because I like the feel a lot better than the original grips. I'm thinking of leading them a little bit, but I probably won't because I'm afraid I'll screw them up, and I've kind of gotten used to the way they are.
I love Babolats though. I have used several Prince rackets and never liked them much. I kind of like Wilson's K Factor and nCode serieses(plural of series?) but I've kind of grown too attached to Babolats to switch back now. And no matter what your parents tell you, a good racket will always play better than a $20 Walmart racket. Walmart doesn't sell good rackets.
