    Dude, you're killing me. I am a long time Prince mid user (mostly diablo mid) and have recently moved into a more "forgiving" frame, the Yonex SV98. I tried just about every other racquet in the players/modern players realm and found the Yonex to provide a similar ball to the diablo mid. BUT...

    Angell TC95 16x19 flexy shakedown

    I can tell you that the 97 tour (for that matter all of the pre-configured Angell's) are the exact same racquet (hairpin) as the customs, just with a molded B shaped handle and tungsten weight is used for weighting instead of lead weights. The source for them in the USA is found by googling...
