Great cool info. on the Boris range of rackets. This is the first time I knew and heard all of the historic and details on his favourite racket. What surprised me the most you have all his racket from PUMA, ESTUSA and HEAD and you even played them to give us the reviews, great!!. What I remembered Boris also produces his own lines of racket with his signature serving logo on it. Do you have / had them? TQ 😊
@quakeranger he did! Initially I think it was in collaboration with Volkl and then he had entire line of Boris Becker racquets. I have 1 Boris Becker racquet in my collection, the Delta Core London Tour. A little heavy, 93 sq in. very control oriented and comfortable. But it really is lacking in the power department, still a fun racquet though.
I often wondered if Becker ever adjusted the power control system on the Puma. If I had to guess, he probably didn't. I also remembered an Australian Open match soon after Becker went with Estusa. Becker was barking and ranting at himself like he normally did when he wasn't playing to his standards. I vividly remember he kept pointing to the butt cap of his racquet.
@CPChannel05 I'm not so sure about the regular handle part. Yes. I agree he probably did not ever use the PCS. However, you clearly see him using racquets with the big screw at the end of the butt cap during his professional days. There is the possibility that he had regular handles and had a screw inserted on the butt cap to make it look like a stock racquet but I doubt it.
Aww, gee. I thought you'd just misspelled 'rackets'. I was expecting some boss personal tax advice, on how to avoid paying up to the IRS. _That's_ what Boris Becker is best known for - NOT paying the tax he had coming.

Cool video, Becker was definitely one of my favorites when I was a kid watching Wimbledon on TV
Good video
The ceramic version played better

est'il possible de trouver et d'acheter deux raquettes (neuves )
possible, mais très difficile
