Pros

  • Polyethylene core provides superior vibration absorption compared to standard EVA, making this racket specifically designed to reduce epicondylitis risk during long professional training loads at 365–375 g
  • 9/10 ball exit — the joint-highest score in the spec sheet — is produced by the polyethylene core's elastic rebound, generating useful pace despite the soft construction and head-light balance
  • 9/10 control rating confirms the teardrop frame and soft core combination delivers precise, repeatable ball placement on volleys and baselines
  • Fiber Tech faces with a carbon-reinforced perimeter combine flexibility in the hitting zone with structural rigidity at the frame edges, optimizing both feel and durability simultaneously
  • Redesigned hole pattern in the frame improves airflow through the face during swings, reducing drag and slightly boosting head speed on fast strokes

Cons

  • Soft touch and polyethylene core absorb energy on overheads and aggressive drives — the 8/10 power rating is solid but the racket won't amplify smash pace the way hard-core, head-heavy frames do
  • Head-light balance at 365–375 g reduces swing momentum on overheads, making it a less natural choice for players who rely on gravity-assisted smash power
  • The elbow-protection-first design makes this a specialist racket — players without arm sensitivity may find they prefer a stiffer, less vibration-damped frame for sharper feedback
