Head Speed Motion (2025)

Solid rather than explosive. The high balance and lively foam give good pace on overheads and viboras, but heavy hitters will notice the ceiling is lower than on the heavier models.

A clear strength. Placement on blocks, lobs and punch volleys is reliable, and the rigid feel lets you steer the ball. Very soft touch shots can come out a little lively.

The best part of the racket. It gets in front quickly at the net, recovers fast after the glass and stays easy to swing late in a match. The high balance is still felt a little.

Forgiving for a teardrop, especially central and above centre. Low or wide contacts lose some pace and direction, and the lighter head twists more on a late block.

Fairly soft and well damped, which suits players wary of elbow trouble. Off-centre hits can still sting a little, and the smooth face gives less bite than textured rivals.
