Best for advanced players who attack at the net and value speed and touch over raw power; less forgiving off-centre.
A lightweight attacking diamond for advanced and strong intermediate players who want fast hands at the net rather than raw force. It carries a women's label but suits anyone who builds points with lobs, placed volleys, viboras and bandejas, then finishes when the ball is right. Handling and touch are the strengths. Power and forgiveness away from the centre are the trade-offs.
Power is the trade-off, decent rather than headline. It will not hammer winners from awkward positions, and smashes need a well-chosen ball and clean timing. A weight-adjustment system lets you shift mass towards more punch or more speed.
Control is solid and reliable for placement. Touch shots such as chiquitas, drop volleys and lobs come out well, and the rough face helps put spin on the ball. Lobs lose some consistency once contact drifts away from the centre.
Handling is the headline. At roughly 350 to 360 g with a high balance it swings quickly and recovers fast, and volleys stay crisp even in rapid exchanges at the net.

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 correctionOpinions differ: some players find the usable size decent, others find it selective. Our reading is that the hitting zone sits high on the face, so low or off-centre contacts lose depth and pace, and a prepared swing beats a rushed one.
Feel sits between medium and medium-soft, so contact stays comfortable on a three-layer EVA core under a rough carbon and fiberglass face. One review finds it firmer and more direct than earlier Vertex Woman versions, so expect crisp rather than plush.
