TenX Pro Xstrike Review
I have been testing the new 300g and 315g Xstrikes from TenX Pro for a few weeks. Here is my TenX Pro Xstrike Review. Introduction I got two demos for this TenX Pro Xstrike review – they have the same mold and layup, but different weights, balance points, and swing weights. The technology in the […]
Making the Switch – with Daniel Rutkowski
Are you making the switch? I consulted my friend Daniel Rutkowski on finding a new racquet and we made an in-depth video about his new frame. Daniel Rutkowski was featured in this post/video about his previous racquet, the Prince Phantom 93P that he had extended and customized with Ring&Roll. He wanted a bit more power […]
Wilson Six One 95 nCode Classic Racquet Review
Time for another classic racquet review. It’s one of my personal favorites, the Wilson Six One 95 nCode (18×20). The Wilson Six One 95 nCode was a bestseller when it came out in 2004 and is today still used by several pros and many high-level club players. Kyle Edmund and Dan Evans are two pros […]
Yonex Ezone 98 Tour Review
I published the first impressions of the Yonex Ezone 98 Tour Review a while back, now I am ready with my full review. There has been a lot of interest and hype around this racquet and I’ve gotten a lot of questions about this Yonex Ezone 98 Tour review. For a good reason. The Yonex […]
HEAD Radical 2021 Prototypes Review
I have now finished my review of the HEAD Radical 2021 prototypes. This references the Radical Pro 2021 and Radical MP 2021. The updated Radical comes with spiral fibers in the layup similar to all the other Graphene 360+ racquets. The benefit is a more flexible and comfortable feel. HEAD have decided to shorten the […]
TenX Xstrike
I have received two demos of the new TenX Xstrike racquets. You might remember the Aussie-based brand from my Xcalibre review a while back… The Xcalibre were slightly extended control-oriented racquets, while the TenX Xstrike is more about power and spin. It’s a more flexible version of a Pure Drive with a listed stiffness rating […]
Babolat Pure Drive 2021 Review
I called the first post about this racquet “PD 2020”, but it’s actually a Babolat Pure Drive 2021 Review. Babolat usually release new updates to their racquets every three years. Most manufacturers do 2-3 years in between an update and I think that’s a pretty sensible rhythm if there are improvements/changes made to the frame. […]
Tecnifibre Tfight RS 305 Review
Not long after my test of the Tfight RS 315, here is my Tecnifibre Tfight RS 305 review. It’s the update to the Tfight XTC 305. I have really enjoyed this Tecnifibre Tfight RS 305 review. It’s a close contender with the new Ezone Tour and Radical Pro 2021 for my next match racquet. One […]
Yonex Ezone 98 Tour Review – First impressions
The first part of the Yonex Ezone 98 Tour Review was published on Patreon a while ago. Here are my first impressions of this frame. I polled people on my Instagram whether they wanted me to do the 2021 Pure Drive, the Tecnifibre Tfight RS 305, or the Yonex Ezone 98 Tour Review first. The […]
Babolat Pure Drive 2021 – First impressions
I have played with the Babolat Pure Drive 2021 for a couple of hours now and wanted to write down my first impressions. First of all, let’s talk about the specs. The Babolat Pure Drive 2021 is the same mold as the 2018 edition, but it’s more dampened and supposed to be more comfortable. Tech […]
