Well, I thought I would give HEAD one more chance as the Problem Child was my second favorite but had not played more than 2 games with it. So, I decided to play with it for 2 straight days. after going back and fourth between GEARBOX and HEAD I ended up going with HEAD. Still Gearbox is a great racquet it just did not have the same touch I need for the game I play.
Recently I have been in the market for a new racquet. I have been a user of Ektelon for most of my little off and on (30+ years) Outdoor RB career.
I tried over 6 of the new racquets - from Ektelon, Pro Kennex, Head and E force.... I ended up liking the Mean Streak from Head.... After a few days of testing these racquets I finally decided to try out the Gearbox. I waited till the last minute to try this racquet (170g Tear Drop) because I just really was not into the hype of this new company... BUT, I ended up loving this racquet. I hit the ball well and loved the sweet spot! So, I ended up liking a racquet that I thought would suck! I am glad I tried this out and I am sold 100% on Gearbox! I am not sponsored by Gearbox and I am not trying to sell people but, I thought I would share this experience. If they want to sponsor me I would be willing and able to accept! :) I am a believer! I will be ordering 2 Gearbox 170g's. thx :)
Well, not sure how cool this will be to anyone but.... this game is good for the racquetball player who wants to try squash. But, with this game we use racquetball racquets, play on a squash court and a slow racquetball - UK RACKETBALL is getting pretty big over seas.
