Pros

  • Soft polyethylene core with Shock Absorption technology neutralizes vibration more completely than standard EVA, keeping the arm fresh during extended defensive exchanges at 360–380 g
  • Round shape with even balance delivers matching 9/10 scores on control, sweet spot, and maneuverability — three pillars that make this one of the most consistent placement rackets in the M27 range
  • 3D Hexcel Twill carbon frame provides structural rigidity that prevents flex deformation under load, maintaining accuracy on repeated placements
  • 3D textured surface generates ball friction for topspin and slice without requiring extra wrist action
  • Medium-soft touch offers a noticeably more cushioned feel than medium-hard alternatives, particularly on volley touch shots and soft drop shots

Cons

  • Power rated at 7/10 is the weakest metric in the spec sheet — the soft polyethylene core absorbs energy that power-first players want returned as pace
  • Medium-soft touch may feel excessively elastic to players transitioning from stiffer carbon rackets with a crisper response
  • Even balance at this weight range reduces the head-speed advantage of head-light frames on fast, whip-style volleys
