Best for advanced and technical intermediate players who want placement and handling and will supply their own pace.
A control-first hybrid for advanced and strong intermediate players who win points by placing the ball rather than smashing it. At 365 to 375 g with a low balance, it is quick and precise at the net, with a firm, dry feel. Power is its weakest area, so it suits players who bring their own pace.
Its weakest area, though still decent at 7.5. Ball exit is low, so pace only appears when you accelerate through the ball. Short defensive swings can land shorter than expected, and flat smashes need a full, committed motion.
Control is the strength here, at 8.8. The firm 18K carbon face over a MultiEVA core gives a clear read on every shot, so lobs, chiquitas and deep bandejas go where your technique sends them.
Very quick for its weight, at 8.3. The low balance of about 25 cm makes the frame swing fast in blocks, volleys and quick resets at the net.
Better than a face this firm suggests, at 8.0. Off-centre hits keep their line and most of their depth, though some testers found it only average when rushed.
Acceptable but not plush, at 7.1. The impact is dry rather than springy, which gives clarity but will not suit anyone who likes the ball to sit on the face.
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.
