For Sure-Footed Posing
NO matter how much you love yoga, taking a yoga mat on a trip may seem a little over the top. Yet, either for traction or hygiene, many people prefer to have something between their feet and the surface where theyre practicing, especially if its a hotel room floor or a borrowed mat at a studio. The solution may be a pair of yoga socks. These are low-cut socks, often in eye-catching colors, with sticky dots or patches on the soles for sure footing. Most of them have glovelike pouches for each toe, so wearers can spread their toes for balance and connection to the ground. Some pairs are cut to expose the tips of the toes, to give increased tactile sensation during, say, the tree pose and the triangle.. Yoga instructor Kira Ryder tests out five types of yoga socks for comfort and grip; photos (M)

Angled-Arc Tennis Racquet
The first aluminum racquet introduced by Snauwaert of Belgium, manufacturers of wood and wood-composite models, is 20 percent oversized and features a new angled-arc head shape. The design has altered the normal arc in the upper portion of the racquets head to create a new shape consisting of four corners connected with three nearly straight lines. The lower portion of the head is unchanged, so that Snauwaerts stringing pattern of 16 main strings and 18 cross strings can still be utilized. Snauwaert believes the angled-arc shape helps the average players stability and power. Other features of the aluminum model include a stiffer yoke for shock absorption and a new, more pliable Zytel ST string strip that allows strings to set properly. The Snauwaert Aluminum racquet is available in different sizes and sells for $75, unstrung, at Ferons Racquet and Tennis Shop, 55 East 44th Street, New York, N.Y. 10017, telephone (212) 867-6350.
