Looking at the reviews of the racquets, its rather interesting that first the 125 basaltex and now the 125 speed are getting raving reviews while the response to the 125s was positive but not as much as the racquets it was sandwiched between. Dunno if its a coincidence or not that Shorbagy's seasons followed a similar pattern - he crushed it with the original 125 basaltex , struggled a bit with the 125s and is crushing it again with the 125x I think i'm going to pick this one up. The 125 basaltex was the best racquet ive played with, till an unfortunate on court "accident" ended that beauty but skipped the 125s in favor of the Dunlop Hyperfibre+ 125, which im struggling with (heard Gouhar also dumped it). Trying a restring this month and if that doesnt help, im just going to keep that as a spare and pick this up. Major missing the feel of pounding a ball with the full force of a carboflex. Thanks for the reviews - very helpful.
I have recently started playing with this. It’s been amazing two weeks of squash. Exceptional racquet.
I like that he revealed his "little secret" with that bumper. :-)
many others do this as well...Gaultier, etc
Gaultier is actually shaving the frame not the bumper. I don't know about the others.
I think Massaro do it too.
When an Egyptian does it, its news. When Gaultier or Masaro does it … silence. Few squash loving Europeans have not evolved out of hypocrisy.
7 out of the world's top 10 players are from Egypt. How are the so good?
They have many juniors competing there. Many clubs.
