Trek 1999 TI 3 Wade Bootes

Advantages: a good racket
Disadvantages: breaks without any reason to speak of

...i am a county tennis player and have used head rackets all my life. i have never had a problem with them until recently - myself and my sister who also plays at county level used the TiS6 racket and after a few months the frames of both our rackets began to rattle. we sent the product back to head who sent us fresh rackets. true to form, 3 months later the same problem occurred which inclined me to believe that there may be a design flaw with these rackets. do not get me wrong, they are superb rackets while they last, but unfortunately they have a tendancy not to last very long...

Advantages: Light, cheap for titanium
Disadvantages: Small racket head

They are constructed from dual density neoprene bound with PVC padding. The strike pad on the knee boot is quite robust, offering great protection. The knee boot fastens with velcro and buckles for extra security. My Verdict. * * * * * * * * I find the Westropp Dual Density Knee Boots to be quality and hardwearing. Compared to some, the strike pad offers great protection. I always think with softer strike pads, they will still offer protection but, if half a tonne of horse suddenly falls on their knees, a harder strike pad will offer more protection. I find the buckles as well as the velcro a bit fiddly to put on. I have Westropp Competition boots which operate on the same principle. However, double fastenings... Read review
