Strengths and watch-outs

Pros

  • Light (83 ± 2 g, 5U): quick to maneuver in defense and at the net
  • Accepts high tension, up to 38 lbs (17.2 kg)
  • Slightly head-heavy (290 mm): adds power to the attack

Cons

  • At 83 g (5U), it has little mass to add weight to back-court shots
  • Medium flex does not give the extra propulsion of a flexible shaft on a slow swing

How the RR Score was calculated

CriterionWeightScore
Specs65%51
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.
