The new Babolat Pure Strike is here
The massively hyped-up Project One 7 has been revealed as the new Babolat Pure Strike. You’ve maybe read the glowing reviews? Usually I’m skeptical towards reviews, especially by companies selling the racquets themselves (like Tennis Warehouse), but you can’t but react to the amazing feedback that the new Babolat Pure Strike has received. I’m therefore […]
Lucas Pouille’s racquet
Lucas Pouille is perhaps the shining star of the new generation of French players and are already ranked at 17 in the world. What racquet does Pouille use? A lot of people wonder about Pouille’s racquet, especially since Prince has lost a few of their sponsored players, Ferrer, Delbonis and a few others to Babolat. Why […]
Kei Nishikori Tennis Racquet
A lot of people wonder how a relatively short guy like Kei Nishikori can get so much power out of his shots. If you’re interested in Nishikori’s racquet this is the post for you. Contrary to what most people think, Nishikori is not playing with the racquet model he endorses, the Wilson Burn 95, but […]
Dunlop MaxPly McEnroe and other classics
Any love for the old school? I have occasionally played with wooden racquets just to get back that “ball feel” and to make sure I don’t get lazy with my feet or technique. I can’t spin the ball like I do with my customized Babolat Pure Drive Originals, but it’s enjoyable to hit with wooden racquet. […]
New Wilson Blades with Countervail
A big part of the Wilson racquet line-up gets a makeover. In addition to the Wilson Roger Federer Autograph Pro Staff 97 and the Wilson Serena Williams Autograph Blade 104, it looks like also the Blade 98 will get the black and green paint job. Specs are yet to be revealed. Had brief communication with […]
Serena Williams Autograph racquet
With the new Wilson Pro Staff 97 Roger Federer Autograph racquet out and selling like hotcakes, it was high time that one of the all-time greats of women’s tennis, Serena Williams, also get an autograph model. It’s called the Wilson Blade SW104 Autograph Countervail and absolutely murders the tennis ball. Just look at the specs: Technical Specifications Length 28 […]
Babolat Pure Strike – NEW line
The Babolat Project One 7 has ended and the new Babolat Pure Strike line has been revealed. Complete with FSI (Frame String Interaction, which means a tighter pattern in the sweet spot area) and everything. It sure looks great to me, but whether it plays a lot different than the previous Pure Strike remains to […]
Racquet review: Yonex DR 98
One of the highest reviewed tennis racquets on Tennis Warehouse and Tennis Express is the Yonex DR 98 with some play-testers calling it “one of the best tennis racquets they’ve ever reviewed”. I really enjoyed the Yonex Ai 98 (still have four of those although I mainly play with the Tecnifibre 315 ATP Ltd 16×19) and I really think the Yonex DR 98 is a […]
What is so great about the AeroPro Drive Original?
This is a true icon among racquet nerds. But what is so great about the AeroPro Drive Original? I wish we could ask Rafa Nadal. What is so great about the AeroPro Drive Original? I’ve been wondering this question for quite a while. After all, this is the racquet Rafael Nadal still plays with, despite […]
What’s New
Tennis is in a slightly “dead” period at the moment with many players traveling to the Rio Olympics to try to win a medal for their country. News reports from the games have mostly talked about Brazil’s flimsy economy at the moment, the players’ rough accommodations and every other article is another tennis player withdrawing from […]
