Is his racket right for you?

Go for it if

  • You're an advanced player with a fast, full swing
  • Your game is built on hard smashes and steep attack
  • You like a head-heavy, stiff frame

Think twice if

  • You're still building technique and swing speed
  • You play mostly fast, defensive rallies
