Wilson Burn with Countervail Review
Wilson Tennis has released a new version of the Burn line (took over from the Steams) with Countervail. The Wilson Burn racquets (including the FST update) were a relatively stiff line of racquets but the reviews talked about a relatively comfortable feel for strung RA ratings around 70(!). The Burn 95 (extended length) and especially the […]
Head Graphene Touch Instinct Adaptive
Head’s Graphene line has received a mixed bag reviews with a lot of players complaining about high stiffness ratings and lack of feel compared to legendary Head lines (even the IG line was great in this respect, both Radical and Prestige versions). The idea with the Graphene line was all the time to create a […]
Fernando Verdasco Tennis Racquet
One of the players most prone to switch racquets on the ATP Tour is Spaniard, lefty, ball-basher, Fernando Verdasco. Most racquetholics usually hover around 3.0-4.5 NTRP rating, but Verdasco has been ranked as high as nr 7 in the rankings (in 2009). It’s always a joy to watch Verdasco hit his forehand, but too often […]
John Peers to Wilson
Doubles professional John Peers has gone from his 18×20 patterned Prince TexTreme Tour 95 (which is a great racquet according to my humble opinion – read my review) to some kind of Wilson Pro staff 97 (could be a pro stock model like Wilson H22 or Wilson H19, but not sure yet). Looks like the stick has a […]
Babolat Pure Aero French Open Edition
Babolat usually releases special edition paint jobs of their most popular racquets for Wimbledon and French Open. This is 2017s Babolat Pure Aero French Open. What do you think of the design? Should the racquet companies keep making special paint jobs for the grand slams? The specs is exactly the same as the usual Babolat […]
Borna Coric using Wilson Tennis Racquets
I wrote a post about Borna Coric moving from one Yonex to another (the Yonex DR 98) here, but now it is official – Coric is moving over to Wilson Tennis. This was revealed on his Facebook page: What Wilson tennis racquet will he use and endorse? It’s potentially one of Wilson’s popular pro stock […]
New year, new gear
The ATP Tour version 2017 has kicked off in Doha, Brisbane and Chennai. First action I’ve seen is David Ferrer swinging his Babolat Pure Drive Plus against hothead Bernard Tomic using a Head Graphene XT Radical MP A (actually a HEAD TGT 260.5 pro stock model). Ferrer was steady while Tomic slightly less so and the Spaniard […]
Snauwaert Racquet and Strings Review
I’ve been trying out the new line of Snauwaert racquet and strings including the Vitas 100 and the Grinta 98 racquet as well as the Black Beam and White Beam Strings and I want to give my impression of this re-release of the Belgian Snauwaert brand. Snauwaert Grinta 98 specs Length 27 in Weight 315 […]
Babolat Pure Aero VS Tour
Tennis racquet names can twist your head at times. And they keep getting longer too. We had all gotten used to the Babolat Aero Pro line before Babolat decided to unify their bestsellers under the “Pure” series. So Rafael Nadal is now endorsing the Babolat Pure Aero (read about Rafa’s real racquet here). But then […]
The Best Racquet Smashes of All Time
Let’s ring in the new year with listing a few videos of the best racquet smashes of all time. Tennis can be a frustrating sport and these videos tell you exactly how frustrating it can be with epic racquet destruction footage of Marcos Baghdatis, Nick Kyrgios and even Roger Federer! First off, Marcos Baghdatis famously destroys […]
