2010 Wimbledon Tennis Gear Notables - The Men
We could talk about the big win, as usual, for Nike
in this year's men's final between Rafael Nadal and Tomas Berdych - Nike
has them both head to toe. But that's pretty apparent. Here are our two less obvious notes:

Djokovic's Move to Sergio Tacchini
Sergio Tacchini
We've known the Joker to be an adidas guy, but things change. We may be late to the party on this news, but we're big fans of the old school brand, Sergio Tacchini.
Classic, clean, perfect for Wimbledon.

and Do It Tennis.

However, Djokovic is still wearing the adidas Barricade
tennis shoe and swinging the Head YouTek Speed Pro Tennis Racquet.

Rafa's New Strings
As part of his standard excellent color commentary of the Wimbledon final, John McEnroe made note of the specific string Champion Rafael Nadal was using, Babolat RPM Blast.
The RPM Blast is the new string used by both Nadal and Andy Roddick - its a good string for big hitters like those two. It sports an 8-sided cross-section which adds extra bite on the ball for added topspin and slice. New high density co-polymer polyester monofilament combined with a new cross-linked silicone coating provides even more spin and greater ball control.
Check out the RPM Blast at Amazon
or at Do It Tennis.
