The player looking for a high level of feel and control, but in a more maneuverable package, will love the response of this one. From the baseline this fast feeling racquet offers excellent access to spin and pace. The 100 square inch headsize, combined with the 16x19 string pattern provides excellent bite and a healthy sweetspot. At net the racquet feels fast and maneuverable. The response is crisp providing the player with a clean feel for depth and direction. Our TW testers found enough pop to help get punch volleys away, yet all the touch needed for a delicate drop volley. On serve the light and mobile feel makes the faster swing speeds for pace and big spin easily accessible. All in all this is a very impressive control-oriented racquet and a must demo for intermediate through advanced level players.
