TenX Xstrike
I have received two demos of the new TenX Xstrike racquets. You might remember the Aussie-based brand from my Xcalibre review a while back… The Xcalibre were slightly extended control-oriented racquets, while the TenX Xstrike is more about power and spin. It’s a more flexible version of a Pure Drive with a listed stiffness rating […]
Babolat Pure Drive 2021 Review
I called the first post about this racquet “PD 2020”, but it’s actually a Babolat Pure Drive 2021 Review. Babolat usually release new updates to their racquets every three years. Most manufacturers do 2-3 years in between an update and I think that’s a pretty sensible rhythm if there are improvements/changes made to the frame. […]
Tecnifibre Tfight RS 305 Review
Not long after my test of the Tfight RS 315, here is my Tecnifibre Tfight RS 305 review. It’s the update to the Tfight XTC 305. I have really enjoyed this Tecnifibre Tfight RS 305 review. It’s a close contender with the new Ezone Tour and Radical Pro 2021 for my next match racquet. One […]
Knowing your racquet spec
If you are lost on what racquet to use, one part that will make the journey easier is knowing your racquet spec. I published my MRR-list (match-ready-racquet list) a little while ago. That list became a bit broader than intended because I am testing so many racquets that it makes sense for me to readily […]
Yonex Ezone 98 Tour Review – First impressions
The first part of the Yonex Ezone 98 Tour Review was published on Patreon a while ago. Here are my first impressions of this frame. I polled people on my Instagram whether they wanted me to do the 2021 Pure Drive, the Tecnifibre Tfight RS 305, or the Yonex Ezone 98 Tour Review first. The […]
Babolat Pure Drive 2021 – First impressions
I have played with the Babolat Pure Drive 2021 for a couple of hours now and wanted to write down my first impressions. First of all, let’s talk about the specs. The Babolat Pure Drive 2021 is the same mold as the 2018 edition, but it’s more dampened and supposed to be more comfortable. Tech […]
Too Many Racquets – MRR List
I don’t own that many racquets, but I do test new racquets all the time. I simply have too many racquets to choose from. This situation makes it difficult for me to get really used to one racquet and be confident in time for a tournament match. Let’s take a recent match in the 2020 […]
Podcast with Andrew from Prospect Customization
I have just published my podcast with Andrew from Prospect Customization. It’s available on Spotify, iTunes and the usual places. I really enjoyed talking to a like-minded tennis nerd and we could easily have go on for a couple more hours. If you want to follow Andrew’s work, you should check out his Instagram Prospect […]
Solinco Hyper-G Soft String – First Impressions
I have been testing the new Solinco Hyper-G Soft string in two racquets so far and here are my first impressions. Solinco Hyper-G is a popular but pretty stiff string. It is used by many players on tour as well as on the club level. For some players, the string might feel a little bit […]
HEAD Radical Pro 2021 Review – First impressions
Yesterday I posted my HEAD Radical Pro 2021 Review (first impressions) on my YouTube channel. If you don’t subscribe, please consider it! You can also find the video in the post below. I will publish a full-scale review of the both the HEAD Radical Pro 2021 and HEAD Radical MP 2021, but it will be […]
