Best for advanced all-court players who want a light, comfortable, controlled hybrid and can live with modest smash power.
A light, quick hybrid for advanced and improving players who defend first and build points with placement rather than force. It is a top women's pro's signature model, but nothing about it is limited to women. Contact is soft and easy on the arm, while finishing power is the trade-off for anyone who ends points overhead.
Modest rather than headline. At roughly 355 g with an even balance the frame adds no free momentum, so overheads need real arm speed, and the light frame can twist slightly against very heavy incoming pace.
A clear strength. Bandeja depth is accurate and repeatable, and blocks and defensive lobs leave the face with little effort. Low, driven lobs still need clean timing.
Excellent. The hybrid head and even balance keep the frame easy to move, so the switch from defence to the net feels natural and fast hands get rewarded.
Generous. The hit zone covers rushed or off-centre contact well, which suits the hurried hits that long defence produces.
Soft and forgiving at medium firmness. The fibreglass and carbon face over a multi-density EVA core takes the sting out of hard flat balls and protects the arm over long sets, though players who want sharp feedback on every touch may find it a little muted.
Specs come from the maker and the reviews we read, and makers revise them between batches. If a weight, balance or material is off, tell us and we will fix the racket page.
