Interesting Shaped Racquets Rackets

Hi Everyone, I am interested if anyone remembers playing with any of these racquets. Personally I remember hitting with the Snauwert Ergonom.

Did anyone play with that double hander?? That looks really interesting. What about that bent handled one.

How did they play? What worked and didn’t work? Was it hard to serve with but great on ground strokes? Tell us leave a comment.

You can see the full article of all Interesting Shaped Racquets on the site at this link. There are some great close up photos !

Actually there is one on the site called Maynard Air Racquet. It looks like you use a bike pump to lock the strings into the frame of the racquet.

Also there is one “Blackburne Double String” which has 2 sets of strings on each side of the frame. Imaging stringing it. The first side would be ok but what about the second side!

Did anyone ever use play or string that racquet?

Enjoy Michael
