Expert Review

As a power racquet, its construction emphasizes its intended style of play. The 100 in² head size boosts forgiveness and sweet spot size. A stiffness rating of 71 RA results in a firmer, more responsive feel at impact. With an unstrung weight of 300 g, the frame adds stability through mass. The 18x16 string pattern (open) influences spin access and launch angle. Performance-wise, it scores 100/100 for power, 60/100 for spin, and 40/100 for control, outlining its on-court behavior. Its characteristics suggest a higher potential for arm fatigue if paired with stiff strings. It is best suited for intermediate players.

User Feedback

User comments for racquets with similar specifications highlight predictable on-court characteristics. A recurring theme is the potential for arm discomfort for sensitive players, depending on setup and hitting style. Overall, it is most often recommended by users for intermediate players.
