Pros

  • 9/10 control rating for reliable defensive and cross-court placement
  • HR3 White EVA soft core absorbs vibration effectively, protecting the arm during extended play
  • 9/10 sweet spot from the round geometry forgives off-centre contact on volleys and groundstrokes
  • 9/10 maneuverability in an even-balance 360–375 g frame for quick net transitions
  • 3K fibreglass face provides consistent durability without adding unnecessary weight

Cons

  • Power score of only 6/10 — soft core limits pace on aggressive smashes
  • Full-soft touch lacks the crispness that advanced players expect on flat winners
  • Even balance provides no head-heavy bias to generate finishing momentum
