Playing with Extended Racquets – Longbodies
I have been trying several extended-length racquets recently, so-called longbodies. The new Pure Aero VS, Yonex Ezone 98, HEAD Gravity MP. Big thanks to longbodies.com for providing the racquets for this test. Longbodies.com sell only extended-length racquets. 27.25 or 27.5 inches to be exact. So what does the added length do? Let us look at […]
Babolat Soft Drive Racquet Review
Time for a classic racquet review. I wanted to review my current match racquet, the first edition of the Babolat Soft Drive. The Babolat Soft Drive was famously used by both Carlos Moya (for most of his career) and Rafael Nadal during some of his junior years (he later moved to the Pure Drive and […]
Diadem FS Racquets Review – Elevate Tour and Nova 100
I have been testing the new Diadem FS Racquets – Elevate Tour and Nova 100. The racquets are updated with a Flex Stabilization System. I reviewed the previous version of the Diadem Elevate and Elevate Tour and liked them a lot, but this is the first time I tried the Nova. The Elevate is the […]
Babolat Pure Strike Tour Racquet Review
The Babolat Pure Strike Tour is a lethal weapon for the attacking player. This 2nd generation Pure Strike packs power, precision, but lacks some feel. Before I move on with this Babolat Pure Strike Tour racquet review I want to thank All Things Tennis for the demo racquet. Since I have difficulty getting demo racquets […]
HEAD Graphene 360+ Speed MP Racquet Review
It is time for the Speed MP to get an injection of spiral fibers. Here is my HEAD Graphene 360+ Speed MP Racquet Review. In short: I like it. The update to the HEAD Graphene 360+ Speed MP is not huge. The specs are pretty close to the predecessor. The colors are inverted, the swing […]

Wilson Pro Staff RF97 Autograph – Ring Roll Custom
I have had the fortune to test a lighter Wilson Pro Staff RF97 Autograph from the German customization company Ring&Roll. Here is my review. A lot of players love the hefty feel of the Wilson Pro Staff RF97 Autograph racquet, but many also find it a bit too heavy and cumbersome for longer sessions. This […]

Prince Phantom 97P Racquet Review
The Phantom series is Prince’s most popular racquet series. Plush, controlled, and good-sized sweet spot. This is my Prince Phantom 97P Racquet Review. The new release of Prince Phantom racquets includes 7 racquet models so there is plenty to choose from. One addition to the Phantom line this time around is the 97P. Based on […]
HEAD iPrestige MP – PT57E
The HEAD iPrestige MP, also known as the PT57E, is a true classic. It has the same mold as the “holy grail”, big brother PT57A, but a stiffer feel. I had the opportunity to play a bit with Ernests Gulbis old PT57E racquets and felt like I had to create this post and video. PT57E […]
