Control
Best for advanced all-court players who want quick hands and control with real finishing pop, provided their technique is clean.
A control-leaning hybrid for advanced all-court players who want to run the point and still keep something in reserve to finish it. It gives up a little top-end pace next to the full diamond Hack, and in return stays composed on bandejas, viboras and pressured drives. Quick through the air and firm in the hand, it rewards clean technique and punishes lazy contact.
Strong rather than extreme. There is enough pop to finish when the ball sits up, but the standard Hack hits harder if raw pace on the smash is the priority.
A real strength. Bandejas and viboras are easy to place and still carry some weight, and blocks come out clean when the face is set early. Soft touches can jump out longer than intended.
Quick through the air, which helps in transitions, fast hand exchanges and last-second counters. It stays lively rather than sticky when the point turns chaotic.
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.
Suggest a correctionGood rather than generous, and reviews differ on its size. The contact zone is more usable than on most hybrids at this level, but off-centre hits feel dry and clean timing is rewarded.
Only middling. The firm aluminised 18K carbon face over a multi-density EVA core gives a crisp, medium-hard feel, and the stiffness shows over long sessions. Players with sensitive arms, or who lean on a passive racket in defence, will get less help here.
