The Duora 88 is an all-round model in the Duora line, with the Dual Optimum System to deliver power on the forehand and distance on the backhand. It has an HM graphite frame with Nanometric β and Super HMG, a stiff 7.0 mm HM graphite shaft, neutral balance and 88 g ±3 (3U). It measures 675 mm, takes up to 26 lbs and has 76 holes, with single-pass grommets. Made in Taiwan, it is more affordable than the Duora 10 and the Z-Strike and appeals to intermediates who want to attack and defend with the same racket.

How the RR Score was calculated

CriterionWeightScore
Specs65%63
Approval from players35%65

The RR Score is not yet a precise figure. It summarizes the data we have today (specs and reviews) and changes as more information comes in. A low score does not mean the racquet is bad and does not reflect its technical quality: often it is just missing data or reviews. The specs combine several sources and may have discrepancies: check the manufacturer's website and the store where you buy.
