Our verdict
Advanced players who build points with placement rather than force get a round, low-balance control racket with a wide, forgiving sweet spot and quick hands at the net. Power is the trade: the firm core wants a full, committed swing, and a flat smash needs good preparation to carry weight.

How it plays
Power
Power score7.3
Moderate rather than headline. The firm core gives back what the arm puts in, so a committed swing finishes well, while a half swing leaves the smash short.
Control
Control score8.9
The standout trait. Contained ball exit and a crisp response let blocks, lobs and low volleys land where you aim, and the textured face adds bite to slices and lifted shots.
Maneuverability
Maneuverability score8.4
Quick through the hand for a racket of this weight, and the low balance helps late reactions at the net. The reviews disagree on how quick: one rates the handling clearly lower than the rest.
Sweet spot
Sweet spot score8.2
Wide and centred thanks to the round shape, forgiving on slightly off-centre contact in fast net exchanges. One view finds it only moderate and wants consistent technique.
Feel
Gentle enough for long matches thanks to a vibration-filtering frame, though the firm core can feel harsh on mishits until it warms up.
