Our verdict
Advanced players who build rallies through placement get a controlled response and enough forgiveness to stay composed under pressure. The round head suits blocks, guided volleys and patient defensive exchanges. Its firm contact gives clear feedback, but there is little extra pace on offer when the stroke is passive. Choose it for managing the rally rather than relying on an easy overhead finish.

How it plays
Power
Power score7.4
Moderate finishing help. Full swings can produce an effective smash, but the racket leaves most of the acceleration to you and rewards placement more than outright speed.
Control
Control score8.9
Placement is the main strength. Blocks, lobs and compact volleys stay predictable, helping a prepared player steer the ball without an unexpectedly lively rebound.
Maneuverability
Maneuverability score8.4
Quick enough for repeated net exchanges. Reviews differ on how agile it feels, from merely manageable to very fast, and the heavier end of the weight range takes more effort.
Sweet spot
Sweet spot score8.4
A useful margin around the centre helps on defensive blocks and hurried volleys. Imperfect contact stays playable, though it does not remove the need for clean timing.
Feel
Firm with some vibration filtering. The response feels structured rather than plush, so players seeking a deeply soft contact may prefer another setup.
