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. Recommended for beginners only: the RR Score for this category goes up to 75. It may be great for what it is designed for, but it does not rank among the best in the sport. ## Community 0 review(s) and comment(s) No reviews yet. Have you played with the Air Crest 2026 Babolat?
