 Some things you can't improve upon. March 12, 2007

The classic dampener from Unique. I don't like a lot of muted feel from a dampener, I just like the 'ting' removed. I play with graphite Wilson racquets that have the classic feel, but also don't have any modern technology that dampens the vibration from hitting balls. The flexible nature of graphite can translate some of that into you arm, but modern dampeners like the Gamma Shockbuster and the like take away too much feel for my liking. The Unique "o-ring' gives me the perfect balance of feel and dampening.

I recently purchased a pack of two Sampras "O" vibration dampeners for my Wilson Prostaff 6.0 Original Mid and was pleasantly surprised with the result.
While the package claims (Rather dubiously, in my opinion) that the "O" design allows for greater maneuverability, I found that the dampener was perfect for my game. Many Shock Absorbers pop out during play, while others dampen too little or too much, inhibiting valuable 'feel.' I found that this dampener took off sufficient vibration without diminishing feel and remained lodged firmly in the strings despite the racquet's best attempts to catapult it.
The design may not be for everyone, but at this price, why not?
