Is Federer using Lead Tape in his new Frame?

$

Can't see it anywhere, unless the Frame is just "perfect" and bumperless, thus needing no lead tape.

Wrawinka does not use any lead tape either, true? Same for Murray and Nadal, as no one can see any lead tape, number of layers, length of layers, etc...

Only Djoker and Berdych, can you see the lead tape on the head under the bumper...

Any news on Federer only acquiring a new frame, yet is perfectly suited thus no longer needing any lead tape?

I was at the All Japan Nationals today and in the Srixon Dunlop Booth was Kevin Anderson's signed stick which he used in this years US Open. I talked to the Srixon rep and he was a really genuine guy...no lies, no ******** about him.
Anderson uses a Rev cx 2.0 Tour 18×20 pattern and he has it customised with leather grip, lead in the handle, lead at 10 and 2 on the frame.
I picked it up and it felt around 345 - 350ish weight in my hand. It was strung and also quite headlight. The reason I...

Djokovic - AO 2014

I like this one in particular, but all the ones of the similar design are awesome.

I will admit I have actually bought the shirt Novak is wearing here, and find them excellent for tennis and/or other exercise.
The material is so light!

I heard that Djokovic racket's swing weight is 400 g; anyone knows if that is true?

Murray's racket also seem to be on the heavier side.

What's the difference between the Youtek IG Prestige S and the Youtek Prestige Pro? They are pretty close in specs. How does the relatively small differences in specs change the results on the court? I'm asking because I have the prestige s (which I like pretty well) and I have a chance to pick up the prestige pro. Should I? Anyone played these sticks?

I'm hoping to start collection of racquet specs that current top 20 doubles are using. Actual racquet not paint job they are promoting...

Does anyone have any insight? I never bother looking into doubles so I am fairly clueless about their specs at this point. Looking forward to learning :)

Great company that makes fantastic squash and badminton racquets. I guess making it big in tennis isn’t worth the cost of sponsoring top players for marketing purposes. I still think it’s a losing, defeatist attitude.

Found it very cool and interesting that now Novak has decided to use 5 inches of lead tape positioned at 3 & 9 o’clock ( same set up as wawrinka) as of 5/15/18.

Look at the bottom two images showing Novak at the same tournament both photos taken one year apart.

First photo is of Novak at Rome 5/15/17 and bottom pic Is from yesterday at Rome 5/15/18

There's been many threads on this topic recently, but I just noticed a video on YouTube (linked to this post) of Nole giving a racquet post-match to a fan. If somebody knows how to reach this guy so we can find out Djokovic's current specs (assuming he gave away a match-ready racquet), that would be amazing.
